If a boy exhibits a sex-linked trait that is carried on the X chromosome, what must be true?
Artemon [7]

Answer:

C. His mother carried at least one allele for that trait

Explanation:

-Men have a single allele of each gene on the X chromosome, inherited from their mother, and a single allele of each gene on the Y chromosome, from their father.

-A sex-linked trait is a trait that is controlled by a gene or an allele located on the sex chromosome.

-X-linked traits are maternally inherited from carrier mothers or from an affected father. Each son born to a carrier mother has a 50% probability of inheriting the X-chromosome carrying the mutant allele.

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Capillary refill time

Explanation:

Capillary refill time refers to the time that it takes for color to return to an external capillary bed after pressure has been applied (which causes blanching).

Explain the behavior of the balloons referencing the charges.explain how the distance and direction of john travoltage’s finger
blagie [28]

when John Travoltage rubbed his foot against the floor, he started building up negative energy, this negative energy later built up as he was rubbing his foot on the floor which then caused a reaction with the door knob, the same thing happened with the balloons, as we rubbed it on the sweater, the balloons started building up negative energy too, which then resulted in a connection with the positive energy. The dust particles most likely got a charge from moving around from different places, considering that fabrics build up the negative energy, it appears that the dust particles could have landed on a fabric which then allowed the particles to build it up and then stick to other surfaces.

  4. For the first time Night Blooming Jasmine will bloom and spread it's fragrance for 24 hours.
  5. Often when the earth revolves around its axis, a certain part of it receives light from the sun.But for the first time the earth will rotate around its axis without the sunlight falling on any part.
  6. people who are not allowed to go out of the house at night time can now enjoy the night out in the day too.
  7. Those trees and plants who slept in the hope that they would cook food in the morning with sunlight, they would not even know that their food has gone missing.
  8. Our ozon layer will have it's first leave from his duty.
