Explain why it is impossible for a man to be a carrier of a sex-linked trait.
hoa [83]

Answer:

Because it contains two different sex chromosomes

Explanation:

Man in its genome contains two sex chromosomes, X and Y, while woman contains two X chromosomes.

In order to be a carrier of a sex-linked trait, a person should have one copy (one allele) of a certain trait. For example, if a female has one X chromosome with mutation (e.g. disease carrying) and one normal X chromosome, she is carrier for the disease. But, on the other hand if a male has one X chromosome with mutation he will develop that disease.

5. List three mechanisms by which Earth's albedo can be increased.
KIM [24]

Explanation:

1. A decrease in the number of greenhouse gases that humans produce will result in lowered global temperatures. This will allow the ice sheets in the polar regions to increase increasing also albedo.

2. Using light-colored building materials on houses and pavement in urban centers will work towards increasing albedo as more sunlight is refelcted back by built environments.

3. Decreased deforestation/increase in aforestation increases the earth’s sirface albedo because vegetation reflects back more sunlight than the earth’s bare surface.

rjkz [21]
The answer is: 'constrict the blood vessels in their large ears to reduce transfer of external heat to the blood in their ears.' This is an example of thermoregulation. Thermoregulation is the ability of the<span> </span>body to keep body temperature<span> within certain boundaries, even when the temperature of the surrounding environment is very different. The regulation of temperature by thermoregulating organisms is one aspect of </span>homeostasis. By using heat exchange systems, such as employed in this example, the animal will need to expend less energy on behavioural adaptations to maintain a constant body temperature.
