Calcium oxide is an ionic, chemical compound created by equal transfer of atoms. As described, calcium loses two electrons, giving it a +2 charge and an atom of oxygen picks up two electrons, giving it a –2 charge. This event is called ionic bonding where there’s a complete transfer of valence electrons between atoms. Usually, metals are the ones donating their valence electron (e.g. calcium) and it’s the non-metals who accepts the donated electrons (e.g. oxygen).

Answer: Tragedy of the commons
Explanation:
1.What is the probability that a sperm from the father will contain the PKU allele?
Probability = ½
2.What is the probability that an egg from the mother will contain the PKU allele?
Probability = ½
3.What is the probability that their next child will have PKU?
Probability = ¼ (because each parent has ½ chance ½ X ½ = ¼)
4.What is the probability that their next child will be heterozygous for the PKU gene?
Probability = ½ (because each parent has ½ chance of donating the ‘P’ allele and ½ chance of donating the ‘p’ allele (½ x ½) + (½ x ½) = ½
