Answer:
Explanation:
Let "XB
" represents the dominant allele for no baldness
and let "Xb
" represents the recessive premature male-pattern baldness
Genotype of affected male is Xb
Y
Genotype of heterozygous female XB Xb
Now when the above male and female are crossed, the following offspring are produced
Xb
Y * XB Xb
XB Xb, XB Y, Xb Xb, Xb
Y
Since, this Xb allele is only expressed in males, therefore females will not be affected by it
Hence, out of 4 offspring only one male offspring with "XbY" genotype will have premature baldness
Answer:
In meiosis I, the arrangement of any homologous chromosome along the center plane ( forgot the name for this) is independent of the arrangement of the other homologous chromosomes. There is thus equal probability for the chromosome to be in either of the two daughter cells after meiosis I. This is observed in meiosis 2 metaphase as well where the arrangement of each Sister chromatid about the ‘center plane’ is independent of each other. This independence observed during metaphase of meiosis I and meiosis II allows for chromatids to be in either gamete formed in equal probability, not affecting by other chromatids thus inheritance of one trait is not affected by the inheritance of another trait.
<span>I suspect this question should read "How long does a red blood
cell live." A red blood cell lives for between 100 and 120 days. It
takes 7 days for a new red blood cell to develop from stem cells. Stem
cells are similar to base cells. They can also be seen as a general
template from which specialized cells are made. Stem cells can be taken
from a newborn baby's umbilical chord or extracted from an adult blood
donor's blood.</span>
A. the products of photosynthesis serve as the reactants and cellular respiration to provide chemical energy.
Because photosynthesis produces oxygen and cellular respiration needs that oxygen to produce energy and carbon dioxide, the carbon dioxide is used to create energy and oxygen for the plant.
