Biology
1 answer:
SVETLANKA909090 [29]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

From food

Explanation:

Food energy is a chemical energy used by humans through the process of cellular respiration. Food contain macromolecules such as lipids, proteins, carbohydrates, water, vitamins, and minerals that are necessary for the human metabolism and they are broken down and used by the series of metabolic steps (glycolysis, Krebs  cycle, electront transport chain and oxidative phosphorilation). Digested macromolecules should be used either as a source of energy or as building blocks for the cell.

At the end of catabolic processes within an organism food energy is transformed into energy usable by the cell-ATP.

Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is an X-linked, recessive condition caused by mutation of the HPRT1 gene responsible for purine metabolism.
Elanso [62]

Answer:

B. The father did not contribute a sex chromosome to his daughter due to nondisjunction of the sex chromosomes. The daughter is XO and her only X chromosome came from her mother, who was a carrier.

A.The mother's X chromosomes failed to separate during meiosis, and the daughter inherited two X chromosomes with the Lesch-Nyhan mutation. The father contributed no sex chromosomes.

Explanation:

As seen in the question above, a little girl was diagnosed with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, which is an X-linked recessive condition caused by a mutation in the HPRT1 gene responsible for purine metabolism.

The little girl's parents do not have the syndrome, and no one in the little girl's paternal family presented this syndrome, however, we know that the maternal grandfather of the little girl's mother had the syndrome, which means that it was the mother's genetic material that contributed to the development of the syndrome in the little girl. This was because the little girl did not receive any X chromosomes from her father, but she inherited the two X chromosomes from her mother that coded for the Lesch-Nyhan mutation. This happened because the mother's X chromosome disjuction did not occur during meiosis I.

As shown above, the father did not contribute any sex chromosomes to his daughter, which means that the daughter is XO and her only X chromosome came from her mother, who was a carrier.
