Hemophilia is a hereditary bleeding disorder that primarily affects males.

This is because hemophilia is a mutation that occurs on the X chromosome.

All males have the XY chromosome while females have two X chromosomes

which is XX.

Males having only one X chromosome means that no substitution can occur

during reproduction unlike the females which have two X chromosomes

which can be substituted if one is mutated. This is why hemophilia occurs far

more common  in males.

It is a mutation to the X-chromosome.

Pleas help please help HELP <br><br> How can one system be consider a component of another system?
Tanya [424]

Answer: The body is a system filled with smaller systems. Each used to help out the other and benefit the body as a whole. For example, the respiratory system takes in oxygen, the heart then takes the oxygen in the blood and pumps it throughout the entire body. Then veins carry that blood to muscles and organs. Each unique system has a job to do, when one malfunctions the whole system can fail.

Explanation: Hope this helps :)

In 1898 Friedrich Loeffler and Paul Frosch found evidence that the cause of the highly contagious hoof-and-mouth disease in live
Anni [7]

Answer:

a virus, because it requires a host cell to reproduce

Explanation:

  • a bacterium, because it is contagious
  • a fungus, because it infects livestock
  • a protist, because it is microscopic
  • a virus, because it requires a host cell to reproduce

The correct answer would be <u>a virus because a virus is the only microbe that cannot reproduce on its own without a host</u>. A virus utilizes the genetic mechanism of its host to reproduce either lytically or lysogenically.

<u>In lytic cycle</u>, the virus utilizes the genome system of the host to produce more viruses that eventually leave or lyses the host to become independent viral particles, killing the host in the process.

<u>In lysogenic cycle</u>, the virus inserts its genome into that of the host and uses the host's replication machinery to replicate its genome. The virus then waits for the defense mechanism of the host to become weakened before multiplying and lysing the host.

andrew-mc [135]

Answer AND Explanation:

There is a large number of biochemical reactions taking place in a cell at any given time. Enzymes being biological catalysts control these reactions and regulate them so that they proceed at a pace that is suitable for sustaining life. Thus enzymes regulate cellular activities. Enzymes also ensure that only the required reactions take place and progress to their appropriate extent.
