Answer:
Genetic mapping for unequivocal identification of the potentially causative mutation
Explanation:
Galactosemia is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the Galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT) gene, which encodes an enzyme involved in the metabolism of galactose. Gene mapping is a technique widely used in genetics to identify the position of one locus a chromosome by using molecular markers to estimate genetic distances. Genetic mapping provides useful evidence in order to identify when a disease that is transmitted from parent to offspring can be associated with one or more genes and then determine which gene/s is/are responsible for this condition.
Answer:
A tear in right rib muscles has caused the muscles to spasm it would prevent inspiration.
Reason:
As it is cleared that during inspiration, the intercostal muscles contract, the ribs move upward. the diaphragm flattens and move downward. As a result the chest cavity become open and air move into it. However if the muscles of rib tears then rib will not raise. As a result there will be difficulty in inspiration/
Answer: 41.5 OMGs is the predicted mean cuteness in the next generation.
Explanation:
Cuteness is a way to measure relative ability of individuals with a certain genotype to reproduce successfully.
Mean cuteness is given as the summation of individual cuteness. Mean cuteness also changes in the next generation.
The mean cuteness of the current herd was given as 39.7 OMGs and after 16 individuals were chosen, the mean was given as 41.5.
This implies that there was a change already as mean cuteness will either increase or decrease in the next generation after selection. Here, 39.7 increased to 41.5 .
The predicted mean cuteness is therefore 41.5 OMGs.
Hi, the answer to this question would be an Molecular Clock. A molecular clock is a technique used by researchers that uses mutation rates in DNA to estimate the length of time that two species have been evolving independtly. Hope this helped :)
