Answer: I think it’s months

Because I found this information... The Moon appears to move completely around the celestial sphere once in about 27.3 days as observed from the Earth. This is called a sidereal month

In animals, the inability to make the pigment melanin results in albinism, a recessive autosomal condition. Two unaffected paren
Fittoniya [83]

Answer: 1/16, or approximately 6.25% (see explanation below)

Explanation:

Answering this question requires two steps.

First, we need to figure out the probability that this couple will have a child with albinism in the first place. We know the following:

- Both parents are unaffected.

- The couple has already had one affected child.

- Albinism follows an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern.

Let ( M = normal gene ) and ( m = mutated gene ). Since the condition is recessive, the affected child can be assumed to have a “mm” genotype. Barring the possibility of a de novo mutation (which are assumed to be rare), the affected child must have inherited one ”m” allele from each parent. Since both of them are unaffected, however, we can assume that they are both carriers (genotype “Mm”). In conclusion, 1/4 of their offspring (25%) <em>for any given pregnancy</em> may be expected to have albinism. See the resulting Punnett square:

<u>       |      M    |      m   </u>

<u>M    |    MM   |    Mm  </u>

<u>m    |    Mm   |    mm  </u>

Note that the question asks about the probability that not one but two consecutive births result in affected children. Since it can be assumed that both events are independent (meaning: the outcome of a pregnancy does not influence the outcome of following ones), we may apply the rule of multiplication for probabilities. The final answer is therefore 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/16.

Explain Segregation of alleles, using pea plant triats in your example. Help
earnstyle [38]
Segregation of alleles happens when the pair of alleles of each parent separate and only one allele passes from each parent on to an offspring. So if you had heterozygous tall plants and mated them (Tt x Tt), they would each separate into T and t, allowing each offspring to get either a T or a t from each parent. The possible genotypes would be TT, Tt and tt.

AveGali [126]
The process of photosynthesis is commonly written as: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2. This means that the reactants, six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules, are converted by light energy captured by chlorophyll (implied by the arrow) into a sugar molecule and six oxygen molecules, the products.
