Answer:

The correct answer is - 24, 24

Explanation:

In any type of cell division, there is an interphase stage before the actual process of division which is a preparatory process or stage that includes different substages like G1, S, and G2. S phase is a synthesis of the cell cycle responsible for duplication or replication of the DNA.

So, at the end of the S phase, the DNA amount becomes double its initial amount and remains the same in the G2 phase. So, if the initial amount is 12 picogram then it will be double in the S phase and remain 12 in G2 as well.

What happens as a result of ion flow at a presynaptic terminal?
Anarel [89]

The correct answer is: Release of neurotrasmitters from the synaptic vesicles  

Action potential travels through the membrane of the presynaptic cell causing the channels permeable to calcium ions to open. Ca2+ flow through the presynaptic membrane and increase the Ca concentration in the cell which will activate proteins attached to vesicles that contain a neurotransmitter (e.g. acetylcholine), Vesicles fuse with the membrane of the presynaptic cell, thereby release their contents into the synaptic cleft-space between the membranes of the pre- and postsynaptic cells.

Hemophilia is an X-linked recessive disorder (Xh) that is passed through generations and can be traced by using a pedigree. What
Radda [10]
Since hemophilia is an X-linked recessive disorder, the probability depends on the X alleles.
So, if father has dominant allele (H), the probability that a <span>female child would suffer from hemophilia (genotype: hh) is 0%, no matter of mother's genotype:
 
                    Father              Mother
Parents:       H             x          Hh
Daughter:     HH or Hh

</span>      Father              Mother
Parents:       H             x          HH
<span>Daughter:     HH
</span>
      Father              Mother
Parents:       H             x          hh
<span>Daughter:     Hh or Hh
</span>
But, if the father has recessive allele, the probability that a <span>female child would suffer from hemophilia (genotype: hh) will depend on mother's genotype.
If mother is dominant homozygous, there will be 0% of possibility:
</span>                       Father              Mother
Parents:             h          x          HH
<span>Daughter:     Hh
</span>
If mother is recessive homozygous, the possibility is 100%:
                    Father              Mother
Parents:           h         x         hh
<span>Daughter:     hh
</span>
If mother is heterozygous, the possibility is 50%:
                   Father              Mother
Parents:          h         x         Hh
<span>Daughter:     Hh or hh</span>
