Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Let the disorder be represented by the allele a.
Since the disease is an autosomal recessive one, affected individuals will have the genotype aa and normal individuals will have the genotype Aa or AA.
Since the four adults are carriers, their genotypes would be Aa.
Aa x Aa
Progeny: AA 2Aa aa
Probability of being affected = 1/4
Probability of being a carrier = 1/2
Probability of not being affected = 3/4
(a) The chance that the child second child of Mary and Frank will have alkaptonuria = 1/2
(b) The chance that the third child of Sara and James will be free of the condition = 3/4
(c)
(d) If someone has no family history of the disorder, their genotype would be AA.
AA x aa
4 Aa
<em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history </em>= 0
(e)
(f) <em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history</em> = 0
It’s going to be on this one C
In a particular context, “epoch” can refer to a particular point of time characterized by a particular event/series of events.
While “era” refers to a period of time characterized by events in a chronological order.
Thus, an “era” can encompass more than one “epoch”.
“Period” can refer to a short interval of time or a very long interval of time.
For example:
<span>“My period of happiness….”“The period of Four Horsemen…”</span>
<span>“Eon” </span>refers to an indefinitely long time. <span>Eon is presumed to consist of at least 2 eras.</span>
Answer:
Steroid hormones that enter the cell activate receptors. These hormone-receptor complexes then bind HREs and influence gene expression.
Explanation:
Mechanism of action of steroid hormones is as follows:
- Steroid hormone enters cell and bind to the receptor.
- Translocation of activated receptor- ligand complex into nucleus.
- This complex then bind to another receptor on the chromatin.
- Steroid receptors form dimers.
- Act on DNA
- These hormone-receptor complexes then bind HREs and influence gene expression.
- Augmentation or Suppression of transcription.
