One reason why a species may go extinct is due to environmental changes. For example, if a environment undergoes deforestation / wild fires it’s environment will no longer be grassy green and would not allow for an animal like the Japanese rat snake to use its green coloring to camouflage from predators
Answer:
This disorder is caused by a recessive allele, its inheritance is sex-linked.
Explanation:
The disorder affects boys born to unaffected parents, this means that at least one of them has to be a carrier of the allele which causes the disease. So, if the allele was dominant, it would express in parents and sons. But, in this case, only is expressed in sons, so it can´t be dominant. Moreover, this condition has a sex-linked inheritance because it is always seen in boys and never in girls. This happens due to boys only have an X chromosome, so if they inherit the recessive allele of the disease, they will express it. On the other hand, girls have two X chromosomes, so if they inherit one copy of the recessive allele, they will be carriers and they won't be affected.
This disorder is never seen in females because they need to have two copies of the recessive allele. However, to have double copy, they should inherit one copy from their mothers and one copy of their fathers, but boys with the allele are affected and they die in early teens without having progeny. Therefore, a girl can't have a "carrier-father", so they will never have two copies to express the disorder.
Answer:
So blood can reach the fetus
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct answer is - because 3×3×3 has the highest Surface area to volume ratio, diffusion in and out of the cell would be faster.
Explanation:
It is known that if the size of a sphere or cell increases, the volume is a cube, and the surface area is squared therefore volume increases faster than the surface area. If the volume is more and the surface area is less than diffusion will be less effective. diffusion takes longer and is less effective.
The decrease in the surface-to-volume ratio leads to diffusion to get less efficient. The Surface-to-volume ratio of a sphere decreases as the sphere gets bigger.
