There are 3
exclusive mutually birth orders that could
make two
affecteds and 1 unaffected - unaffected child first born, unaffected child
second born,
and unaffected child third born. Thus, there is a 3/64 + 3/64 + 3/64
= 9/64
chance that 2 out of 3 children will be affected.
Answer:
The tall parent was heterozygous
Explanation:
If tall height is dominant to short height the only genotype possible for short height is hh, while there are two possible genotypes for tall height, Hh and HH. When HH is crossed with hh all the offspring are Hh, but if Hh is crossed with hh, a quarter of the offspring is HH, a quarter is hh and half is Hh. If the tall pea plants were HH there would only be tall offspring, but because there are some short offspring we know that the tall pea plants must have a genotype of Hh.
The correct answer is: 2- Hypertension, or high blood pressure
Hypertension leads to heart failure. Also, as a result of hypertension body tends to retain fluid in order to maintain adequate blood volume. A failing heart is unable to handle that extra fluid, so it is transferred out of the blood vessels and into tissues causing the swelling of extremitets or edema.
Lobe-finned fishes are characterized by lobes in their fins in addition to the basic characteristics of fishes.
<h3>What are lobe-finned fishes?</h3>
Lobe-finned fishes are a group of fish known as Sarcopterygii. They possess the basic characteristics of fishes such as swim bladder, lateral lines, etc.
They are a sister group of ray-finned fishes. In addition, lobe-finned fishes possess the following characteristics:

Explanation:
A rock would experience a temperature of 5500°C is about the core which is at a depth of 220km.
But let us use the earth's geothermal gradient to solve this problem.
The geothermal gradient is the rate at which temperature is increasing with depth.
The geothermal gradient 25°C/km
At 5500°C,
5500°C x
= 220km
But this is not so in nature, there are other heat sources that contributes to increasing temperature with depth such as radioactive heat and frictional heat.
