Acouple has just learned that their daughter has hemophilia. they already have a son who does not have the disease. what are the genotypes of the couple? explain your reasoning.

The genotypes of the couple are- XᵇX and XᵇY, where Xᵇ denotes the X chromosome having gene for hemophilia.

Hemophilia is a X linked recessive disorder, which means that the gene for hemophilia is carried by X chromosome. A female individual will be affected by the disorder if she carries two copies of the gene causing hemophilia. A male ( XY) will be hemophilic when his X chromosome bears the gene for hemophilia.

As per the information given in the question, son is not having the disease, which means that he has inherited normal X chromosome from his mother. On the other hand, daughter is hemophilic, which indicates that she has inherited both the X chromosomes with hemophilic gene that is XᵇXᵇ ( one X from father and other from mother).

This condition is only possible when the male parent is affected and female parent is carrier for the disease.

Thus, the genotypes of the couple are- XᵇX and XᵇY, where Xᵇ denotes the X chromosome having gene for hemophilia.

freezing

deposition

condensation

explanation;

melting also called fusion is the process where solid becomes liquid, sublimation is the process where solid becomes gaseous without first changing to liquid, deposition involves change from gaseous to solid state, freezing involves change from liquid to solid, boiling or evaporation involves change of liquid to gaseous state, while condensation is the change from gaseous state to liquid state.

endothermic reactions involves absorption of heat from the surroundings or the environment while exothermic reactions involves loss of heat energy to the surroundings.

in this case, sublimation, evaporation and melting are endothermic reactions (gain energy from the environment) while, freezing, deposition and condensation are exothermic (loss of energy to the surroundings) reactions.

the moon affects the earth gravitation ally, causing certain motions of that body and also producing tides in its ocean and atmosphere. the tidal wave in our atmosphere is, however, far too minute to be an effective cause in any known meteorological phenomenon.
