You and your colleagues are constructing a pedigree for a boy with cystic fibrosis. The individual’s younger brother has also been diagnosed with cystic fibrosis. How would these brothers be represented in a pedigree?Question 10 options:

Both would be represented as completely shaded circles.

Both would be represented as completely shaded squares.

The older brother would be a shaded square, while the younger brother would be a half-shaded square.

Both would be represented as unshaded squares.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The correct option is B) Both would be represented as completely shaded squares.

Explanation:

A pedigree can be described as a chart or a diagram which reflects the occurrence of a particular phenotype from one generation to another in a family. It determines the family history for a trait.

In a pedigree, males are usually drawn as squares. A male who is carrying a disorder or a particular phenotype under study is represented by shading the square. A male who is a carrier for the trait under study is represented by lines on the square. Hence, option B is correct.

The polarity of an oxygen-hydrogen bond is higher than the polarity of a nitrogen-hydrogen bond, allowing amines to be more soluble than alcohols True or false

Answers

Answer:

The answer is false. First part correct, second incorrect.

Explanation:

The affirmation “The polarity of an oxygen-hydrogen bond is higher than the polarity of a nitrogen-hydrogen bond” is correct: Oxygen is more electronegative than Nitrogen (3.5 O, and 3 N), then when they form a covalent bond with Hydrogen, OH-bond polarity is higher than NH-bond polarity. Nevertheless, the consequence is that alcohols (that have OH characteristic group) are more soluble in water (polar solvent) than amines (NH group). Then, second part of the affirmation is incorrect.

Answer:

False

Assume the light wave directed at the paper is white light and the paper reflects the wavelengths of red-orange-yellow-green-blue-indigo-violet. What color will the paper appear to human eyes?

Answers

If you apply white light and it reflects only red, you see it red, all the other wavelentghs absorbed. If it reflects all wavelength (i think listed all red-orange....) then it should be white.

Answer:i think it it white

1. A DNA strand is made up of how many strands of nucleotides?2. Name one way that DNA and RNA differ.
3. Nitrogenous bases are held together by what type of bond?

Answers

Answers:

1. 2 strands. (known as polynucleotide)

2. DNA is double stranded while RNA is single stranded.

3. Hydrogen bonds.

There are four types of them;

• Adenine and Thymine are double H-Bonds.

• Guanine and Cytosine are triple H-Bonds.

Additional:

Other DifferencesbetweenDNA andRNA:

•DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose, while RNA contains the sugar ribose.

• DNA is stable under alkaline conditions while RNA is unstable.

•DNA is responsible for storing and transferring genetic information while RNA directly codes for amino acids and acts as a messenger between DNA and ribosomes to make proteins.

What is the salinity of ocean water

Answers

35 parts per thousand

Sea water. Seawater is water from a sea or ocean. On average, seawater in the world's oceans has a salinity of approximately 3.5%, or 35 parts per thousand. This means that for every 1 litre (1000 mL) of seawater there are 35 grams of salts (mostly, but not entirely, sodium chloride) dissolved in it.

All of the following bring Carbon into the ocean except A. Positive ions

B. Photosynthesis

C. Decaying organisms

D. The gases in the atmosphere

Answers

Answer: A. Positive ions

An ocean is a reservoir of carbon. All of the following bring carbon into the ocean except positive ion:

Photosynthesis: Photosynthesis is conducted by aquatic plants in the ocean to prepare their food which is a carbon product.

Decaying organisms: The aquatic plants and animals are buried beneath the ocean bed and they are decayed and decomposed by the activity of microbial organisms. The organic matter produced after this process is rich source of carbon.

The gases in the atmosphere: The gases in the atmosphere consist of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide released in the atmosphere by burning of fossil fuels, greenhouse gas emission and by other process. These gases are dissolved into ocean water making it available for photosynthesis conducted by aquatic plants. Hence, carbon from the atmosphere enters in ocean through these atmospheric gases.
