If nondisjunction occurs during meiosis I, how many of the daughter cells will have an incorrect number of chromosomes after mei

If nondisjunction occurs during meiosis I, then four (4) daughter cells will have an incorrect number of chromosomes after meiosis.

<h3>What is non-disjunction?</h3>

Non-disjunction refers to the faulty separation of chromosomes during cell division (either meiosis or mitosis).

Meiosis is a cell division that produces four daughter cells having half of the genetic material of the parental cell.

Non-disjunction in meiosis I is known to cause an imbalance in all daughter cells (i.e., in 4 daughter cells).

Which of the following statements is correct?
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The statement that is correct is that all cells have the same genes, but different genes are active in different cells.

Explanation:

Differentiation or specialization is a function that cells possess and is what allows them to have different types of cells and tissues.

Cell differentiation depends on genetic regulation, a mechanism that determines the specific genes that are expressed in a cell or tissue type.

All cells contain the same DNA, which is organized into chromosomes and contain the genes that determine specific characteristics. <u>There is cell differentiation because some genes can be expressed and others are suppressed, all due to genetic regulation</u>.

The other choices are wrong because:

  • <em>The eyes look different from the liver, because they have the same genes, but only some are expressed. </em>
  • <em>Differentiated cells and tissues do not lose their genes. </em>
  • <em>All cells have DNA.</em>

People with diseases that result in the malabsorption of which nutrient are at risk for a vitamin d deficiency?
grigory [225]

Inadequate dietary vitamin D or its deficiency leads to malabsorption of calcium. Nutritional disorder leads to the rare disease rickets, which causes bones to become soft and bend in children. In adults, vitamin D deficiency leads to osteomalacia, which causes weak bones, bone pain and muscle weakness.

The body needs vitamin D to properly absorb calcium and phosphorus from the diet. However, keeping the right quantities of calcium and phosphorus in bones is challenging when vitamin D levels are low.

The two sources of vitamin D are-

  • Natural sunlight
  • Foods such as fish oil, Egg yolk and fatty fishes like salmon and mackerel

There are other disease conditions which lead to poor absorption of vitamin D-

  • Inflammatory bowel disease
  • Celiac diseases
  • Kidney problems

Explain why disease alleles for cystic fibrosis (CF) are recessive to the normal alleles (CF+), yet the disease alleles responsi
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Cystic fibrosis mutation is recessive to normal allele because only one functional or normal allele is enough to produce a functional protein. So, if mutation is present in one allele then also, a normal protein can be made from normal allele. The presence of normal protein prevents the expression of disease.

In addition, mutated allele only results in the loss of function of protein which can be compensated by the expression of normal allele. It does not add any toxic effect to the protein. Consequently, the disease is inherited in autosomal recessive fashion.

In contrast, Huntington mutation not only alters the structure of the functional protein but also adds toxicity to it. The altered protein is enable to interact with 100s of other proteins and inhibit or decrease their function. So, if only one allele is present then also, the mutated protein will be produced and it will result in the phenotype. Consequently, it is inherited as autosomal dominant fashion.

Help me please,Thanks
BigorU [14]
Okay. About 71% of the Earth's surface is water. And salt water holds about 96.5% of all the Earth's water. The remaining 3% of freshwater is found in Glaciers and ice caps making it difficult to use because it is frozen. Other places freshwater can be found is: Lakes, swamps, rivers and the atmosphere. I hope this helps!
