How does the slope of land or direction of plowing affect how water runs over the land?

Biology
1 answer:
Anuta_ua [19.1K]2 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

At one end of a contour the slope of the land will always be steeper than at the other. Thus when plowing parallel runs paralleling any contour the plow furrows soon deviate from a true contour. Rain water in these furrows will thus flow sideways along the falling "contour" line.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an X-linked recessive disease. A phenotypically normal couple wants to start a family. The woman’
Andreyy89

Answer:

\frac{1}{8}

Explanation:

From the question: Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an X-linked recessive disease.

Now for an X-linked recessive disorder to be affected by a male individual; it only requires the presence of only one copy of the recessive allele of the disease to be present BUT in a female individual. both copies of the recessive allele must be present.

Let the X-linked recessive disease(i.e Duchenne muscular dystrophy) be = (ⁿ)

However, we are told that the couples are normal and are unaffected. Therefore;

the male partner (XY) will be:   X^NY

the female partner (XY) will be: X^NX^N

Similarly, the question proceeds by telling us that: the woman's brother has the disease.

Definitely, it's possible that this unaffected woman is a carrier of the disease.

So, if she is a carrier; we have her traits to be: X^NX^n

NOW, if a cross exist between these couples; we have

X^NY     ×        X^NX^n

                     X^N                         Y

X^N                X^NX^N                  X^NY

X^n                 X^NX^n                   X^nY

So, we have offspring as follows:

X^NX^N  = normal unaffected female  

X^NY     = normal unaffected male

X^NX^n   = female carrier for the Duchenne muscular dystrophy disease

X^nY      = affected male with the Duchenne muscular dystrophy disease

So, the probability of the child to be affected with the disease = \frac{1}{4}

Also, the probability that the first child will be a male or a female = \frac{1}{2}

∴

the  probability that the couple’s first child will be affected = \frac{1}{4}*\frac{1}{2}

=\frac{1}{8}

Which statement best explains how to draw a cladogram that includes the rynchosaur?
romanna [79]

The correct answer is option B

A cladogram can be defined as a diagram that uses cladistic to show the relation among the organisms. Many evolutionary trees can be made from a single cladogram but the cladogram cannot be considered as the evolutionary tree because it does not shows that how the ancestors of the species is related to the descendants.

The cladogram of reptiles are made.
