Which individuals in the pedigree are identified and labeled carriers for red-green color blindness?

Answers

Do you have the pedigree to share? Red green color blindness is an x linked trait, which means that it is found on the X chromosome. X linked traits are often recessive, and this is why they usually show up in males, such as the case of red green colorblindness. A male has only one copy of the X chromosome, so if a recessive x linked trait is present, he does not have the option of the dominant version of the trait to show up. A recessive X linked trait can present itself in a female, but since she has two X chromosomes, she would need to have two copies of the recessive trait for it to present itself. This is why color blindness is less common, but still possible in females. I hope this helps you with your pedigree.

A biologist has just discovered a new life form. The newly described organism is multicellular, does not carry on photosynthesis, and absorbs nutrients from the environment. It is composed of eukaryotic cells with cell walls. In which kingdom would the organism be classified?

Answers

The new discovered organism belongs to Kingdom Fungi.

What Is Fungi?

  • These are eukaryotic organisms.
  • It includes mushroom, molds and yeast.

Characteristics of Fungi:

  • They are eukaryotic.
  • They are unicellular or multicellular.
  • They have a cell wall made of glycans, glycoproteins and chitin.
  • They lack chlorophyll so, they do not make their own food and are dependent on others.
  • They reproduce through spores.

Hence, the organism would be classified in Kingdom Fungi.

Cactus spines are modified.

1.) Leaves
2.) Stems
3.) Branches

Answers

Answer: The correct answer is 1) leaves.

Cactus is a desert plant that possesses thick, enlarged, and leafless stems that are covered with sharp spines or spikes. These sharp cactus spines are the modified leaves that provide them an extra advantage for surviving in desert.


Cactus spines provide protection against predator (as they are very sharp) and prevent the loss of water by reducing the flow of air near the cactus and giving them some shade.

Cactus spines are modified 1) LEAVES.

Cactus spines occur in clusters in the axil of leaves. Cactus spines are also known as modified bud scales, which also are modified leaves. The spine primordia is produced at the base of the axillary bud's shoot apical meristem; the location where leaf primordia also grows.

Though cactus spines are modified leaves, they do not contain any of the cells or tissues characteristics of leaves when they mature. Cactus spines consist of just a core of fibers surrounded by sclereid-like epidermis cells. When the spines mature, all the cells in the spines are dead. The only living cells are found at the base of the cactus which enables the spine to continue growing.

Mammalia
Primates

Which level of biological classification do Mammalia and Hominidae represent, respectively?


A)class and family

B)order and class

C)family and species

D)species and kingdom

Answers

Ans.

Biological classification of a species, there are eight levels from largest to smallest, which include domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species.  

According to this classification system, modern humans can be classified as:

Domain (Eukarya), Kingdom (Animalia), Phylum (Chordata), Class (Mammalia), Order (Primates), Family (Hominidae), Genus (Homo), Species (sapiens).

Thus, levels of biological classification, represented by Mammalia and Hominidae are class and family, respectively.

Class and Family is the answer
