Question in English:

A female carries a recessive lethal gene (l) on one of her X chromosomes, and a normal dominant allele (L) on the other. What is the sex ratio to be expected in this woman's dependency if she marries a normal man?

Answer:

2/3 females

1/3 males

Explanation:

Females have two X chromosomes (XX) and males have an X and a Y chromosome (XY).

The genotype of the female is XLXl. The genotype of the male is XLY, since he is normal.

The possible genotypes are:

<u>                            XL                  Xl</u>

<u>XL</u>                     <em>XLXL             XLXl</em>

<u>Y</u>                       <em>XLY               </em><em>XlY</em>

<em />

All female offspring will be normal as they will always have one normal copy of the X chromosome from their father.

50% of the male offspring will be normal, but 50% will inherit the lethal gene from their mother.

Because the allele is lethal, that means XlY males will not be born.

That means 2/3 of the children will be females, and 1/3 will be males.

Answer:

The sun provides more than enough energy to meet the whole world's energy needs, and unlike fossil fuels, it won't run out anytime soon. As a renewable energy source, the only limitation of solar power is our ability to turn it into electricity in an efficient and cost-effective way.

Structure is the result of two or more protein subunits assembling to form a larger, biologically active protein complex.
cluponka [151]

A larger, biologically active protein complex is created when two or more protein subunits come together to form a quaternary structure.

A protein's quaternary structure is formed when several protein chains or subunits come together in a compact configuration. There are separate primary, secondary, and tertiary structures for each of the subunits. Hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces between nonpolar side chains hold the subunits together.

For a quaternary structure to function as a whole, the subunits must be arranged in a particular way. Any change to the subunits' structure or how they are linked results in noticeable adjustments in biological activity.
