Answer:
- 100% of the girls are expected to be normal, X+X+ and X+X-
- 50% of the boys are expected to be normal, X+Y
- 50% of the boys are expected to be hemophilic, X-Y
- 75% of the whole offspring normal (X+X+, X+X-, X+Y)
- 25% of the whole offspring hemophilic (X-Y)

Answer: The correct sequence in the expression of a trait is gene > protein > trait (Option B).
Explanation:
During gene transcription, a linear fragment of DNA referred to as a 'gene' is used as template to synthesize a complementary messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence.
Subsequently, this mRNA is then used as template to create a protein by a process called translation.
Moreover, phenotypic traits can be defined as all observable characteristics that an organism has.
The phenotypic traits are largely determined by the expression of either enzymatic or structural proteins, which interact to shape the phenotype of an organism.
In conclusion, the correct sequence in the expression of a trait is gene > protein > trait (Option B).
Answer: Colon cancer
Explanation:
All cancers, but especially colon and rectal cancers, commonly referred to as colorectal cancer (CRC), have hereditary factors that potentially increase one’s risk.
Genetic testing is determine if there is an increased risk of colon cancer. Apolipoprotein E (apoE) plays a major role in the metabolism of bile acids, cholesterol and triglycerides, and has recently been proposed as being involved in the carcinogenic process. Given the potential role of bile acids in colorectal cancer etiology, it is reasonable that colorectal cancer risk might be modified by apoE genotype. The absence of an e3 apoE allele significantly increased the risk of colon cancer especially for individuals above 50years.

different ways the relatedness of species could be assessed is through:

</span>Their genotype. Similarity in DNA between the species is a good
indication of their relatedness.
<span>2.
</span>Their phenotype. If the two species have similar body form and function,
then there is a good possibility that they are related.
<span>The presence of intermediates, either living
or in the fossil record, can show relatedness between two species.</span>
