Why are cells limited in size? _________________________________________________________________ 6. Click on the animation. A ce

Ivenika [448]

Cells are limited in size to maximize efficiency (accessing nutrients and getting rid of waste as well as decreasing the chances that information will become erred).
A cell with 2cm sides has a surface area of 2cm x 2cm x 6 = 24 cm^2
Volume would be 2cm x 2cm x 2cm = 8cm^3
Surface area : Volume = 24:8 or 3:1
A cell with a large volume will have more difficulty accessing nutrients and getting rid of waste quickly and transferring information that has no mistakes in it

A woman's father has ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTD), an X-linked recessive disorder producing mental deterioration

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Part A - Dd

Part B - 50%

Part C - Option E

Part D - dY

Part E - 50%

Part F - 50%

Explanation:

Given,

Let the allele for dominant trait (wild type) be "D" and the allele for recessive ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTD) be "d"

A X-linked recessive gene affects male offspring in a family tree though a female remains a carrier until it mates with a male with the a recessive diseased allele.

Part A

Father's genotype would be Dd. Hence it will pass d gene (X diseased gene ) to her daughter.

Thus , Woman's genotype is Dd

Part B

Genotype of Normal man - DD

DD * Dd

DD, Dd, Dd, DD

One of the two males will have ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTD), an X-linked recessive disorder producing mental deterioration hence, the probability is 50%

Part C

Option E is correct

Only one of the female offspring will have ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTD), an X-linked recessive disorder which will be expressed if other allele is also X linked recessive.

Hence, The chance of being a carrier will be one out of two female offspring i.e 50% and and chance of having OTD is 0%

Part D

Part E

dY * Dd

DY, dY, dD, dd

one out of the two female is diseased. Hence, the probability is 50%

Part F

50%

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

It can form a variety of carbon skeletons and contain functional groups

Explanation:

<u>Carbon atom is important in biology because it can form a variety of carbon skeletons and contain functional groups</u>. These enable carbon to be able to bond with itself and a variety of other elements. Thus, carbon is able to be the major component of important biomolecules of life such as deoxyribonucleic acid, carbohydrate, proteins, and lipids.
