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.

I need help with the image (phenotypes and genotypes).

Flauer [41]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

1. Only one phenotype is present in the F1 generation offspring. Since tallness was dominant over shortness, all the offspring in the F1 generation appeared tall.

2. Two phenotypes are present in the F2 generation - 9 tall and 3 short. The short trait reappeared at the F2 generation.

3. The genotype of the F1 offspring would be heterozygous. Assuming the purebred tall is AA and the purebred short is aa:

AA x aa

Aa Aa Aa Aa

All the F1 offspring will appear tall and their genotypes would be heterozygous.

4. Assuming that the allele for height is denoted with A (a), the genotype of the purebred tall plant would be AA.

5. In a similia vein, the genotype of the purebred short plant would be aa.
