Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder. it is a recessive trait that is determined by two alleles. suppose two parents each carry at least one recessive allele, but neither of them has cystic fibrosis. which statement reflects the likelihood of a child of these parents having cystic fibrosis? the child cannot have the disease because only the dominant alleles will be passed on. the child will have the disease because only recessive alleles will be passed on. the child may or may not have the disease because a recessive gene from each parent may be passed on. the child may or may not have the disease because the disease does not depend on the alleles of the parents.

What is one benefit of a non renewable resource, such as natural gas? a. generates large amounts of electricity b. less expensive c. produces pollution d. will run out eventually

Which of the following is not a defining characteristic of plants?

On a recent expedition to a remote region of northern canada, scientists uncovered skeletal remains from about 100,000 years ago. surprisingly, all the skeletal remains, which included many species from differing biological families and spanned about two thousand years, showed evidence of experiencing temperatures in excess of 1000 degrees fahrenheit (or 538 degrees celsius). which of the following, if true, best explains the apparent paradox between the cold environment and the evidence of the bones experiencing hot temperatures? (a) chemical changes that naturally occur during the process of decay in only one north canadian species produce the same evidence of the species' skeletons being exposed to hot temperatures as the expedition scientists found. (b) a little over 103,000 years ago, a large fire is known to have occurred in northern canada. (c) strong evidence exists that as early as 70,000 years ago, homo sapiens around the world relied heavily on fire to cook animals. (d) in the same expedition and in roughly the same layer of excavation, scientists found rudimentary wood cutting and hunting tools used by early humans.
