Answer: decreases the secretion of substances from the pituitary gland that cause growth

Gigantism is a disorder which is caused by the excess secretion of the growth hormone by the anterior pituitary gland. It is characterized by excess growth in height of children, large hands and feet, coarse facial features and thick fingers.

In the given situation, the drug should decrease the secretion of substances from the pituitary gland that cause growth is the desired effect of drug on the patients.

identify the missing numbers below to show the result of multiplying the numbers. (3.5 × 1016)(2.2 × 1010) = a × 10b
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
<span>In order to find the value of "a" and "b", first of all perform the multiplication in the parenthesis. 
Thus

(3.5x1016) = 3556
and 
(2.2x1010) = 2222

As per question;
(3556)x(2222) = 10 axb
By dividing both sides by "10"
we get
(3556)x(222.2) = axb
or 
(355.6)x(2222) = axb
by comparing both sides of the equation, 
we get that a = 3556  and b = 222.2
or
a = 355.6 and b = 2222

<span>A man is heterozygous for sickle cell anemia: Aa
</span></span>A man is <span>homozygous dominant for familial hypercholesterolemia: BB

So, his genotype is AaBB. He will give only one allele of two for each gene.
He can have 2 different combinations in sperm cells:

Jill is heterozygous for gene A and is going to have a child with Jack, who is homozygous recessive for gene A. Which of the fol
Igoryamba

Answer:

D. Aa

Explanation:

Given:

Jill (mother) is heterozygous for gene A --------- i.e Jill = Aa

Jack (father) who is homozygous recessive for gene A-------- i.e Jack = aa

Now if both cross and fertilization occurs, we have:

         A          a

a        Aa        aa

a        Aa        aa

The offsprings are (Aa, Aa, aa, aa)

Nondsijunction is the inability of homologous chromosomes to seperate properly during cell division. Now, we were told that this fertilization undergone nondisjunction in meiosis 1. Hence, both homologous chromosome move into the same daughter cells instead of different daughter cells because separation of homologous chromosome does not occur properly.

Therefore the result of these fertilization of a normal haploid sperm with an egg that had undergone nondisjunction in meiosis yields offspring with genotype Aa of their Mother (Jill).
