Answer:

D. the law of crosscutting relationships

Explanation:

The law of cross-cutting relationships can help explain the age of the rock as it relates to the surrounding rock.

This law is one of the premise of relative dating. The relationship between the intrusion and rock body or country rock is used to discern their age.

  • When intrusions cross-cuts the host rocks, they are usually younger.
  • The host rock must haven emplaced before the intrusion sets in
  • The intrusion utilizes weak planes within the rock body to cool and solidify.
  • Now, when they are emplaced, then a vein or other intrusive bodies forms.

A woman who is a carrier for colour blindness (X-linked recessive) has children with a man who has normal colour vision. A. What
viva [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Genotype of the  woman is XCbXN

The man XNY

Since the allele for the color blindness is carried on one of the X -chromosomes of the  carrier mother, then  the male children will be color blind or carrier deopending on the defective gene they inherited. Since they will receive the defective or normal  allele from the  mothers,but the female will carriers or normal because they will inherit either defective allele or normal allele from the mother,but normal  X allele from the father.

Assuming the colorbind gene was inherited by One of the boys, and the girls take the defective genes

1. XNY vs XCbXN.Then the one of the  boys will be colorblind  and the one of  girls will be carriers. XNXCb, XNXN, XCbY,XNY  50 %

2.If the two boys take the effective genes from the mothers. and none of the girls take the defective alelle

Then the two boys will be colorblind and the girls will be carrries XcbY,XcbY and XNXN XNXN.(normal girls).

The proportions that will be  the females  since the girls can only take the defective allele from one of the normal and defective allele from the mother. Assuming the girls  take the defective allele from the mothers and take normal from the father,they will all  be carriers,since the X of the father is normal.

They can not have a color blind girl.Since the father is normal It takes two colorblind X-chromosome to give a girl.

Which nucleic acid is pictured on the right? Justify your answer.
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Nucleic Acids:

- Uracil

- Adenine

- Guanine

- Cytosine

Explanation:

Since we only have one strand shown, I'm going to assume it is RNA. Both DNA and RNA have nucleic acids, but RNA has 1 different nucleic acid; it replaces Thymine with Uracil. So the 4 nucleic acids are uracil, adenine, guanine, and cytosine.

If the picture shown is a cross-section of DNA, then our 4 nucleic acids are adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine.

Can anyone give a help with this please I have to submit it tomorrow!!
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Q.1: I can't help you with this, sorry :(

Q.2: Seaweed is the producer because it takes energy from the water and sun in thermal reactions.

Q.3: Phytoplankton is the second-order consumer because they eat first-order consumers.

Q.4: Whelks and crabs because they eat limpets, which eat producers, and they also eat seaweed.

Q.5: Gulls are carnivores because they eat the crabs, and so are crabs because they eat mullets

Q.6: Limpets and lobster would become less populated, but not yet endangered. Gulls would starve and probably disappear from this ecosystem.

Q.7: Whelks' numbers would decrease because of the number of lobsters consuming them, but then lobsters would starve because of the decline in their food. Then this would repeat, shaking the whole ecosystem.
