Answer:

The respiration of a suspension of yeast cells was measured by determining the decrease in pressure of the gas above the cell suspension. The apparatus was arranged so that the gas was confined to a constant volume, 16 cm3 and the entire pressure change was caused by the uptake of oxygen by the cells. The pressure was measured in a monometer, the fluid of which had a density of 1.034 g/cm3. The entire apparatus was immersed in a thermostat at 37. In a 30 minute observation period the fluid in the open side of the manometer dropped 37mm. Neglecting the solubility of oxygen in the yeast suspension, compute the rate oxygen consumption by the cells in mm3 of O2 (STP) per hour

The most common form of hemophilia is a defect in blood clotting factor VIII, which is caused by a mutant form of a gene on the

Answer:

Nondisjunction during sperm arrangement and formation brought about her getting no sex-chromosome from her dad and an X chromosome from her mom, she is XO.

Explanation:

Nondisjunction during sperm arrangement and formation brought about her getting no sex-chromosome from her dad and an X chromosome from her mom; she is XO.

It is on the grounds that her mother happens to be a carrier of hemophilia and she transferred that mutant allele to her daughter and due to the fact that she did not get any sex-chromosome from her dad.

However, such mutant (X) communicates and expresses itself and she is hemophilic.

This (X) is not express in her mother because she possesses a recessive trait; as such it appears in the hom8zygous state.
