Nitrofurantoin used during the fifth week of pregnancy places the neonate at risk for which condition?

1 answer:

7 0

Nitrofurantoin is antibiotic drug commonly used to treat urinary tract infections in pregnant women because of its safety and effective use (the body quickly filters it out). It is not recommended to be used in late pregnancy due to the potential risk of hemolytic anemia in the newborn.

But, recent studies suggested that there is a possible association between congenital malformations following exposure to nitrofurantoin during the first trimester of pregnancy.

A parent cell gives rise to daughter cells with identical genetic information. Which of the following data supports the idea tha

Yuri [45]

Answer:

A feline skeletal muscle cell undergoes cell division, resulting in two feline skeletal muscle cells.

Explanation:

We are looking for a parent cell that gives rise to daughter cells with identical genetic information.

In simpler words, we are looking for something that makes 'clones' of itself.

In this statement (second option), the parent and daughters are all feline skeletal muscle cells.

A feline skeletal muscle cell undergoes cell division, resulting in two feline skeletal muscle cells.

Other incorrect choices: (All having to do with reproduction).

A child has brown eyes; one of its biological parents has green eyes, and the other has brown eyes.

This situation has two parents, each with a different trait. The child takes one of the parent's trait. The parents did not make a 'clone' of themselves.

A human sperm fuses with a human egg cell, resulting in the development of a new human.

The parents don't make 'clones' of themselves. The sperm did not make more sperm. The egg did not make more egg cells.

A long-stemmed plant reproduces with a short-stemmed plant, and the offspring are all long-stemmed.

The offspring plant only took the trait from one of it's parents. Also, whole plants are not individual cells.
