Water-soluble vitamin excesses are swiftly eliminated in urine and infrequently build up to hazardous amounts.

What is water-soluble vitamins ?

The B vitamins — folate, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, biotin, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12 — and vitamin C are the nine water-soluble vitamins. A clinical condition caused by a deficiency in one or more of these water-soluble vitamins can have serious morbidity and death effects.

The fat-soluble vitamins are used by your body as needed, and any extra is stored in your tissues and organs. The risk of vitamin poisoning increases when you take too much fat-soluble vitamins on a regular basis, making them more dangerous than water-soluble vitamins.

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Dominant: 20, Recessive: 20

Explanation:

The case shown in the question above explores simple Mendelian traits, since it shows a population where individuals of the same species present the dominant allele (R- red) and the recessive allele (r- white). We can project, then, that this population has an allele balance, where it is possible to find 20 red beans, which have the dominant allele and 20 white beans, which present the recessive allele.

In sickle-cell disease, malformation of red blood cells is caused by only one mistake for one amino acid in the genetic code for
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

Hemoglobin is a protein and has two distinct types of polypeptide chains. These are called the alpha and beta subunits. The gene that code for the beta chain undergoes a mutation in a single base that causes sickle cell anemia. Here, adenine base in the genetic code for glutamic acid is substituted with a thymine base.

The genetic code for glutamic acid in the beta chain gene is GAG. The "A" is replaced with "T" and the new code "GTG" codes for valine. Therefore, the mutated hemoglobin has valine in place of glutamic acid. This makes these mutated protein molecules to form aggregates resulting in a change in the shape of RBCs carrying them.
