Answer:
No, the child cannot inherit the disease.
Explanation:
The problem tells you that the man has a recessive allele for an inherited disease, but he has a normal phenotype. This means that the disease is recessive and in order for an individual to have the disease, they must have two recessive copies of the allele. The problem also tells you that the mother has a genotype that does not include this allele. With this information, you can do a punnet cross of BB (mother) x Bb (carrier father), and end up with the following possible genotypes: BB, Bb, BB, Bb. Therefore the child will not have the disease, but there is a 50% chance that the child will be a carrier for the disease.

Seeds have cotyledons from where they can draw their nutrient in their early stages of development. Pollens must draw their nutrient from their environment from the start.
Seeds have an outer coating (testa) that protects the embryo and enable it to remain dormant in the soil until right conditions for growth set forth
Seeds have a fully developed embryo that can begin to grow immediately there are right conditions. However, pollen has a single cell instead of an embryo, which must undertake cell division and specialization before beginning to germinate
Answer:
a. desertification.
Explanation:
Desertification can be defined as encroachment of deserts to areas that were not originally deserts which leads to loss of biological productivity. desertification is caused by some factors which are
- Climate Change
- human activities
- loss of moisture
- drought.
When the above mentioned factors farming, overgrazing, climate change, and/or seasonal drought set in then it changed farmland into land that cannot support plant life.
