Biology

You inherit one set from your mother and one set from your father. To be born with sickle cell disease, a child has to inherit a copy of the sickle cell gene from both their parents. This usually happens when both parents are “carriers” of the sickle cell gene, also known as having a sickle cell trait

Answer:

hi!

Explanation:

If 2 parents are carrying sickle cell with them, if there child receives 1 different copy from each of the parents, they have sickle cell. but those  parent's who are carrying the sickle cell do not get it, they can only pass it down. So if a child gets a Sickle cell gene (S), and a sickle cell gene (A) they get sickle cell.

I hope this helped! If it didnt, ill fix my answer! just let me know!

How does non-human life in an urban ecosystem differ from non-human life in an undeveloped forest ecosystem? (Site 1)
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

- Urban ecosystem: highly disturbed systems. Air, water and soil pollution by various pollutants.  

- Undeveloped forest ecosystem: non disturbed systems. Low or null levels of pollution.

Explanation:

An urban ecosystem can be defined as the community of plants, animals, and humans inhabiting an urban environment. Urban ecosystems are composed of human-built physical structures (e.g., buildings, roads, sewers, railways) and green patches (e.g., parks, greenways, urban streams). In general, urban ecosystems are highly disturbed and contain high levels of pollution. In urban areas, plant life is generally overrepresented by non-native and invasive species. Moreover, animal life primarily consists of pets (e.g., dogs, cats, ornamental birds, ornamental fish) and natural species adapted to human activities, which mainly include small animals (e.g., insects). Moreover, a forest ecosystem is defined as a natural woodland unit composed of 1-biotic factors such as plants (e.g., trees) animals (e.g., insects, birds) and micro-organisms, and 2-abiotic factors (e.g., water, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, sulfur, etc). Forest ecosystems contain low or null levels of pollutants in the air, soil and water. Forest environments represent self-regulating systems that have not been altered or manipulated by human exploitation. In consequence, in forest ecosystems, non-human life is appropriately represented by native flora and fauna.

In the ocean how does water temperature change as depth increases
tatuchka [14]
When the upper water layers warm in the summer months, they become separated from deep water by a transition zone known as a thermocline. In a thermocline, the temperature decreases rapidly with small increases in depth. This phenomenon linking temperature change with depth is called temperature stratification.

Paraphin [41]
The answer to this question would be: <span> C) carbon dioxide and water

In cellular respiration, the glucose will react with oxygen, resulting in ATP, carbon dioxide and water.  Adenosine triphosphate or ATP is the main product of this reaction since it can be used to produce energy. So, water and carbon dioxide would be the by-product.</span>
