Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Let the disorder be represented by the allele a.
Since the disease is an autosomal recessive one, affected individuals will have the genotype aa and normal individuals will have the genotype Aa or AA.
Since the four adults are carriers, their genotypes would be Aa.
Aa x Aa
Progeny: AA 2Aa aa
Probability of being affected = 1/4
Probability of being a carrier = 1/2
Probability of not being affected = 3/4
(a) The chance that the child second child of Mary and Frank will have alkaptonuria = 1/2
(b) The chance that the third child of Sara and James will be free of the condition = 3/4
(c)
(d) If someone has no family history of the disorder, their genotype would be AA.
AA x aa
4 Aa
<em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history </em>= 0
(e)
(f) <em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history</em> = 0
The correct answer is (B) Photosynthesis and diffusion from the air
Dissolved oxygen enters the water from photosynthesis and through air. The The aeration of water can be caused by wind. From the air oxygen diffuse into the water and gets mixed in the it through circulation. The oxygen is also produced as a waste product of photosynthesis from blue-green algae, phytoplankton, etc which is added in water.
Percent error is a statistical tool used for evaluating precision. It is expressed as:
Percent error = | (experimental value - theoretical value) / theoretical value | x 100%
Experimental value represents the calculated value while the theoretical value represents the known value. A percent error value which is approaching zero means that your experimental value is close to the known value. Which can possibly mean that you have precise measurements. Calculations are as follows:
Percent Error = | (2.54 - 2.70) / 2.70 | x 100 =5.93%
Thus, the answer is b. 5.93%.
The brownish-red powder on iron is called rust. It is formed by the reaction of iron and oxygen in the presence of water or air moisture. It is called oxidizing or rusting due to exposure to water and air.
The reactants are oxygen and iron the products are carbon dioxide and water and the process is oxidization.
Scavengers are an organism that mostly consumes decaying biomass.
<span>
Detritivores feed on decaying organic matter and return essential nutrients back to the ecosystem.
So the answer would be (D). Both organisms feed on pieces of other dead organisms.</span>
