In a population of 10,000 individuals, 300 men are afflicted with a recessive, x-linked disease. 18 woman would be expected to be afflicted in this population
both sickle cell disease and cystic fibrosis. dominant X-linked disease. Gene variations on the X chromosome are the root cause of X-linked diseases. A variation in the one copy of the gene present in each cell is what causes the condition in males (who have only one X chromosome).
Red-green color blindness and hemophilia A: Red-green color blindness are two examples of X-linked diseases. Red-green color blindness is simply the inability to distinguish between the many hues of red and green.
Males who are hemizygous (i.e., have only one X chromosome) will fully express an X-linked disease. Females, who have two X chromosomes, on the other hand, will typically be carriers of the abnormality and are hence typically asymptomatic.

Answer:
b is the correct answer for your question
<span>"Water stress" is when the demand of water exceeds its supplies. Factors that increase water stress include increased population, pollution of existing water sources and periods of drought. Ways to combat water stress may be proper distribution of water, establishment of sanitation facilities and prevention of pollution of water sources.</span>
<span>Most animal cells also exhibit anchorage dependence. To divide, they must be attached to a substratum, such as the inside of a culture jar or the extracellular matrix of a tissue. Experiments suggest that like cell density, anchorage is signaled to the cell cycle control system via pathways involving plasma membrane proteins and elements of cytoskeleton linked to them.</span>
