The surviving children would be 66.7% female and 33.3% male. Of the female children, 50% would be expected to be carriers of this gene (like their mother)
| Xg | X
—————-
X | XXg | XX
—————-
Y | XgY | XY

Pretty ugly, but the best punnet square I can do without a link. The offspring with the “g” are those that carry the lethal gene. The male child that carries it will die, but since it is recessive, the female child will live but will be a carrier for this gene. I hope this helps.

What do you predict would be the result for a person with an impaired vestibular apparatus? Explain.
babunello [35]
Each ear should have vestibular apparatus which consist of saccule, utricle and three semicircular canals. The organ can detect horizontal acceleration, vertical acceleration, and rotational acceleration. Impaired vestibular apparatus will result in losing the sense of balance. 
The organ is very sensitive as it was able to detect a small acceleration. That is why most disease in the vestibular apparatus will result in an acute(fast onset) fake perception of acceleration, called vertigo.

Which of these mixtures are heterogeneous? check all that apply?
Soloha48 [4]
There are choices for this question namely:

a. Oil and water

b. Salt and water

c. Brass (and alloy of copper and zinc)

d. Granite (a type of rock with multicolor spots)


The correct answers are oil and water, and granite. Heterogenous mixtures are mixtures wherein the solutes can still be identified from each other. Homogenous mixtures are mixtures wherein solutes are completely mixed and cannot be identified. In oil and water, one can identify which is the oil and which is the water. In granite, it is a mixture of different rocks and these different materials can be identified due to the presence of multicolored spots.
