One feature found among an autosomal recessive pedigree is that heterozygotes have a normal phenotype. Autosomal recessive are several ways that a trait, disorder or a disease can be passed down through families. Autosomal disorder means that two copies of an abnormal gene must be present  for the disease or trait to develop, and therefore, a heterozygote will show a normal phenotype.

The right option is c. heartburn

Heartburn is a painful burning feeling in the throat or chest. Heartburn is common and it increase in prevalence with age. As people gets older some activity that makes acid indigestion worse occur and can contribute to heartburn.

Question
If water were flowing from area a to area b via osmosis, through a semipermeable membrane, we might expect area b to be ________ in solute concentration compared to a.
Solution 1
If water were flowing from area A to area B via osmosis, through a semipermeable membrane, we might expect are B to be high in solute concentration compared to A. Osmosis is the process by which water moves from a region of a high concentration to a region of low concentration through a semipermeable membrane. It means area A is hypotonic (more water molecules than solute molecules) while area B is hypertonic (more solute molecules than water molecules).

Members of the kingdom animalia select one: a. make their own food through photosynthesis. b. can obtain their food either by absorption or by photosynthesis. c. can obtain their food by eating other organisms.
Solution 1
Members of the kingdom Animalia are required to consume other organisms, whether it be a producer (grass, leaves etc.) to other organisms to obtain energy. Plants perform photosynthesis but are not in the Kingdom Animalia. Protista is the Kingdom that would most likely have organisms that can obtain energy by photosynthesis (Alge) and can consume or decompose for energy (amoebas).
