Answer:

The correct answer would be - three chromosomes.

Explanation:

Meiosis is the type of cell division that takes place in only sex cells and called reduction division as a single parent cell divide into four daughter cell that contains a half number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

The daughter cells are always haploid and have the half number of chromosomes. If an organism has 2n number of in its parent sex cell the daughter cells after meiosis will have n number of chromosomes

Therefore, mosquito = 2n = 6

after meiosis = n = 6/2 = 3

Thus, the correct answer would be - 3 chromosomes.

A woman with normal blood clotting ability whose father was a hemophiliac and whose mother was normal with no family history of
Alborosie

Answer:

The answer is 25%.

Explanation:

Hemophilia is a recessive illness that is x-linked.

If the husband has normal clotting ability, that means he has the dominant gene since he has only one X chromosome.

Since there is a probability that their child will have hemophilia, this means that the woman, who has 2 X chromosomes but has normal blood clotting abilities, has one dominant and one recessive hemophilia gene.

The probability that their first child will be a male is 50% and the probability that he will have hemophilia is also 50% since he will only get the Y chromosome from the father and the mother has one dominant and one recessive.

So the probability that their first child will be a son with hemophilia is 25%.

I hope this answer helps.
