. A normal vision male marries a female who is a carrier of the color-blind gene and she becomes pregnant. What will a genetic counselor tell the parents regarding the a) percentage of having a daughter who is color-blind; b) what is the percentage of having a son who is color-blind? Consider a different couple with a female with normal vision and a male with normal vision. Would it be possible for their daughter to be a carrier for color-blindness? Explain your answer.

Explanation:

a, The genetic counselor should  explain that color-blindness is a sex-linked disorder, that is its  expression is related to a particular sex-cells.

a) The percentage is 0% . This is because your husband is normal, so no sex-linked alleleis attached to his only X-chromosomes.However either of your X-chromosomes can bear the allele for color blind. Since a girl child sex-chromosomes combination is XX, and your husband X chromosomes is normal,hence your daughters can only be carries (XCX, XCX)like you  if they inherited any of your X -chromosomes color blind allele.But none will be colorblind.

b)Because you are carrier for this alllele, and your husband is normal;  chances are all your sons   be   colourblind  is 50% proportion(YXC/YXC).  This is because your husband Y chromosomes determines a male child, and you can  bear the defective(carrier allele)  for  colourblind  on either of your X-chromosmes to give a male child as XY. Thus either of the  male child  assuming  with Mendelian fashion of inheritance, will be colour blind in 50% proportion.

No. A girl child can only be  a carrier for color blindness  if the  inherited the color blind gene from her carrier mother  or the father is color-blind. None of this is present in this scenario.  The two parents are normal Therefore there is no chance of their daughter emerging a carrier.

characterization of nanoparticles is a critical step in nanomaterial production as it provides information of dimension, morphology, surface charge, distribution and degree of surface functionalization.

sulfur dioxide

explanation: acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. these substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain.
