In humans, the condition for normal blood clotting (H) dominates the condition for non clotting (hemophilia) (h). Both alleles a

re linked to the X chromosome. A male hemophiliac marries a woman who is a carrier for this condition. (In this respect, a carrier is a woman who has an allele for normal blood clotting and an allele for hemophilia.) If they have a son, what are the chances he will be normal for blood clotting

Answer:

The correct answer would be - 50%.

Explanation:

Hemophilia is a sex-linked recessive disorder that takes place in males more than in females as females have two X chromosomes so if one is affected other still able to make clotting factors but in males, there are only one x chromosome.

If a hemophilic man XhY marries with a carrier women XHXh then the chances of their son for normal blooding would be :

Gametes:

Male: Xh and Y

Female: XH and Xh

Then cross:

             Xh                          Y

XH      XHXh                     XHY

    (carrier daughter)      (normal son)

Xh        XhXh                    XhY

 (hemophilic daughter)  (hemophilic son)

Thus, the chances of normal son is 50% among sons

20. Neutrons and<br> are found in the nucleus of an atom. (1 point)
DaniilM [7]
You know that neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom. Under normal conditions, protons and neutrons stick together in the nucleus. During radioactive decay, they may be knocked out of there. Neutron numbers are able to change the mass of atoms, because they weigh about as much as a proton and electron together.

American vultures used to be classified in the same family as African vultures. Which discovery caused scientists to reclassify
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

DNA evidence revealed the American vultures share more recent ancestor with the Storks

Explanation:

The hooded vultures that is mostly found in the African continent have a close resemblance with the American vultures and were traditionally classified to belong to the Falcon family.

However, it was observed that the American vultures shared a similar behavior with Stork which is not common to the vulture found in Africa, including the hooded vulture. The Stork and the American vulture exhibit the behavior of urinating on their legs when being overheated. When the urine gets evaporated, it helps them to cool their body temperature.

This shared behavior between the storks and the American vultures led scientists into using molecular analysis in analyzing the DNA of the hooded vultures found in Africa, the American vultures, and the stork.

Evidence from the DNA analysis later revealed that the American vultures and the storks share a more common DNA sequences than African vultures and American vultures do.

What are some benefits of farming for the society/environment?
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Pasture and cropland occupy around 50 percent of the Earth's habitable land and provide habitat and food for a multitude of species. When agricultural operations are sustainably managed, they can preserve and restore critical habitats, help protect watersheds, and improve soil health and water quality. in addition to preserving the earth's natural resources, sustainable agriculture benefits the environment through helping maintain soil quality, reducing erosion, and preserving water. Plants and trees in agricultural systems help to retain and add water to underground aquifers. ... Together, they act as an important buffer in the landscape, preventing flooding, reducing water pollution from agricultural runoff and preventing erosion, while providing us with nutritious food at the same time. Farming creates opportunities to lift people out of poverty in developing nations. Over 60 percent of the world's working poor works in agriculture. Farming creates more jobs, beginning with farmers, and continuing with farm equipment makers, food processing plants, transportation, infrastructure and manufacturing.
