The gene for nose shape is found on the X chromosome. Round nose is dominant to pointed nose. Human individuals with XXY (an add

itional X chromosome) are designated male. Individuals with XO (only one X chromosome) are designated female. Identify the possible nondisjunction events (rare mistakes during meiosis) that could explain the phenotype of the offspring. An XY parent with a round nose and a XX parent with a round nose have an offspring with Klinefelter Syndrome (genotype XXY) with a pointed nose.

Answer:

Explanation:

in this case female parent XX is hetrozygous for round nose. when a cross between round nose father XY and hetrozygous round nose mother takes place and suddenly a chromosomal nondisjuction occurs, the chromosomes carrying genes for pointed tip nose come togather in a gamete and a gamete (egg) with XX chromosomes is appeared having 24 chromosomes instead of 23. when this gamete fertilizes with a sperm having normal 23 chromosomes and only carry Y chromosomes, a pointed nose klienfelter syndrome case will appear.

Answer the following questions:
Naddik [55]

Answer:

1. The respiratory system allows us to breathe . They bring oxygen into our body and remove carbon dioxide from the body .

2. Tiny hairs called cilia protect the nasal passageways and other parts of the respiratory tract, filtering out dust and other particles that enter the nose through the breathed air.

3. The throat (pharynx and larynx) is a ring-like muscular tube that acts as the passageway for air, food and liquid. It is located behind the nose and mouth and connects the mouth (oral cavity) and nose to the breathing passages (trachea [windpipe] and lungs) and the esophagus (eating tube).

4. The main function of the epiglottis is to seal off the windpipe during eating, so that food is not accidentally inhaled.

5. The heart pumps blood to the lungs for oxygenation and the lungs then give the heart back oxygen rich blood to be transmitted to the whole body

Water-storing plants and deeply rooted shrubs are plants that characterize?
Nady [450]

Desert vegetation or xerophytes includes bushes with deep roots and plants that store water.

Another name for desert plant:

A plant species known as a xerophyte has evolved to live in environments with little fluid water, like a desert or an area surrounded by ice or frost in the Mountains or the Polar regions. Cacti, pineapples, and various Gymnosperm species are a few well-known instances of xerophytes.

  • Xerophytes have different adaptations to their morphological characters (morphology) and basic physiological functions (physiology) that allow them to store significant amounts of water and save it during dry seasons. During prolonged periods of severe dehydration or evaporation of their organs, some creatures can live, and at those times, their biochemical function may cease. Xeromorphic flora has such biological and morphological modifications.
