Answer:Flippered and charismatic, pinnipeds (which includes seals, sea lions, and walruses) are true personalities of the sea. Like whales, manatees, and sea otters, they are marine mammals, meaning millions of years ago their ancestors evolved from a life on land to a life at sea. Today, they remain creatures of both land and sea. Though able to walk on land, they are truly at home in the water. Strong flippers and tails propel them and a streamlined body helps them cut through the water efficiently.

It’s easy to tell the enormous, tusked walrus from other pinnipeds, but seals and sea lions are easy to confuse. The easiest way is to look at their ears—sea lions have small ear flaps while seal ears are nothing but small holes.

The review of trials found that AZT does delay the early progression of HIV disease, but this improvement is not sustained. AZT alone does not increase survival for people without AIDS.

A man with cystic fibrosis of the pancreas wishes to marry a young woman whose family has never had an individual born with the
mixas84 [53]

Cystic fibrosis is a recessive condition; meaning if a dominant condition takes over it will not be seen in the offspring. The man genotype with cystic fibrosis can only be this: cc (when c is equal to the cystic fibrosis and C is equal to not having one). The woman with no history of cystic fibrosis can possibly have either of these two genotypes: Cc or CC.

To see their offspring’s possible genotype, we’ll use a punnett square let’s start with Cc:

                C             c

c              Cc           cc

c              Cc           cc            There is a 50 % chance of the child having cystic fibrosis.

To see their offsprings possible genotype with CC:

                C             C

c              Cc           Cc

c              Cc           Cc           There is no chance that the child will have cystic fibrosis.
