Duchenne muyscular dystrophy is caused by a mutation on the X chromosome, so a male gets it from his mother's X, if she is a carrier. The male child gets a Y and no X from his father, so the disease is always transmitted through the X from the mother. If a female gets Duchenne muscular dystrophy she has to have two X chromosomes, one from a carrier mother and another from from an affected father. This is virtually impossible because most males die before childbearing age and there is no way a female child can get an X from a man who does not live long enough to procreate. About eight percent of carrier women do show some muscle weakness, but they do not have the disease.
Answer:
Sulfur; nitrogen.
Explanation:
Acid precipitation results when sulfur and nitrogen compounds react with water in the atmosphere.
This acid precipitation is also known as acid rain and it is typically caused by the chemical reaction between sulfur oxide and nitrogen oxide which are released into the air as a result of burning fossil fuels, with water and other chemical elements present in the atmosphere.
Generally, acid precipitation (acid rain) usually have a pH of about 5.1 or below and as such, it is very acidic nature i.e possessing a large amount of hydrogen ions.
Hence, acid precipitation (acid rain) when washed to the earth has negative or harmful effects on various living and non-living organisms such as animals, plants, cars, buildings etc.
Answer:
c. switching from beef to soy
Explanation:
Switching from beef to soy shall lead to the curbing of lifestyle diseases such as obesity.
At the same time, soy shall provide the nutrients that were needed by the body and could be obtained from beef.
Beef is much expensive compared to beef, thereby, there shall be experienced low expenditure compared to beef.
Therefore the switching from soy to beef shall be a more sustainable food system.
Everything in Earth's system can be placed into one of four major subsystems: land, water, living things, or air. These four subsystems are called “spheres.” Specifically, they are the lithosphere (land), hydrosphere (water), biosphere (living things), and atmosphere (air)...
I hope this helps you with biology...
