In a population of 10,000 individuals, 300 men are afflicted with a recessive, x-linked disease. 18 woman would be expected to be afflicted in this population
both sickle cell disease and cystic fibrosis. dominant X-linked disease. Gene variations on the X chromosome are the root cause of X-linked diseases. A variation in the one copy of the gene present in each cell is what causes the condition in males (who have only one X chromosome).
Red-green color blindness and hemophilia A: Red-green color blindness are two examples of X-linked diseases. Red-green color blindness is simply the inability to distinguish between the many hues of red and green.
Males who are hemizygous (i.e., have only one X chromosome) will fully express an X-linked disease. Females, who have two X chromosomes, on the other hand, will typically be carriers of the abnormality and are hence typically asymptomatic.

Answer:
When red blood cells are placed inside pure water they normally swell up and eventually explode. Red blood cells in pure water swell up because the pure water enter in the red blood cells by mean of osmosis. The water molecules are able to enter the red blood cells because the salt concentration inside the red blood cells is more than that of the pure water.
As water continue to move inside the cells, the cell swell up and eventually burst because the internal pressure inside the cell is greater than the external pressure, therefore the cell membrane become ruptured and eventually burst.
Freshwater means low salt content. The zones namely Standing which is compose of ponds and lakes and has littoral zone which algae,floating aquatic plants and clams can be found. Next is limnetic zone and has plankton. Next is Flowing includes streams and rivers and in there resides catfish and carp. For sea water it has Marine which has aphotic zone where anemones,arrow worm and angler fish resides.Another, coastal zone compose of coral reefs and mangrove and lastly the intertidal zone with small critters.
