Answer:
An autosomal dominant gene is one that occurs on an autosomal (non-sex determining) chromosome. As it is dominant, the phenotype it gives will be expressed even if the gene is heterozygous.
The chances of an autosomal dominant disorder being inherited are 50% if one parent is heterozygous (NL) for the mutant gene and the other is homozygous for the normal (NN), or 'wild-type', gene. This is because the offspring will always inherit a normal gene from the parent carrying the wild-type genes, and will have a 50% chance of inheriting the mutant gene from the other parent. If the mutant gene is inherited, the offspring will be heterozygous for the mutant gene, and will suffer from the disorder. If the parent with the disorder is homozygous for the gene, the offspring produced from mating with an unaffected parent will always have the disorder.

Answer:
Weakening of digestive smooth muscle with age can cause constipation.
Explanation:
Smooth muscles in the digestive system have the role to move food down the tract via radially symmetrical contractions (peristalsis). With age, the function of smooth muscles reduces, causing the food to move more slowly through the alimentary canal (digestive tract). As a consequence, water gets absorbed from food waste, which can cause constipation.
Answer: Splitting the water
Explanation:
Carbon dioxide has a regulating function in the splitting of water in photosynthesis.
Answer:
c
Explanation:
Random distribution of the Isopods should be 50/50 in A and B.
Chi-square =
where O = observed frequency and E = expected frequency
Chamber O E Chi-square
A 18 10
= 6.4
B 2 10
= 6.4
<em>Total Chi-square </em>= 6.4 + 6.4 = 12.8
<em>Degree of freedom</em> = 2 - 1 = 1
<em>Tabulated Chi-square</em> (α = 0.05) = 3.8415
The calculated Chi-square exceeds the critical value, hence, it is significant and not due to random.
<em>The correct option is </em><em>c</em><em>.</em>
