Answer: b. osteopeniac.

Explanation:

Oasteopenia is condition in which the density of bone decreases. This occurs due to deficiency of calcium in the bones hence, the density of bones decreases considerably. It is considered as the precursor of the osteoporosis. It typically occurs in the women after menopause due to the loss of hormone estrogen. It also occur due to lack of exercise, smoking, excess consumption of alcohol and prolonged use of glucocorticoids in the medicines. It may also result due to prolonged exposure to radiations.

pshichka [43]

Correct answer: C). Oxidative phosphorylation

Oxidative phosphorylation gives a basic unit of energy for all the metabolic processes called as ATP, it is a highly efficient metabolic process which is known to produce a large amount of ATP.

During the process of oxidative phosphorylation, electrons are exchanged between the molecules, that creates a chemical gradient, which is required for the production of ATP. It is known to produce more ATP called the energy currency of cell that any other cellular respiration. It produces 90% of the total ATP synthesized in the cell.

What is the probability that the first offspring from the cross listed below will be heterozygous for all loci?
Tanya [424]

Answer and Explanation:

<u>Cross:</u> aa Bb dd Ee x AA bb Dd Ee

We can calculate the probability of getting heterozygous individuals in the progeny by using the <u>product rule</u>. Assuming that these four genes <u>assort independently</u> (<em>events that occur independently from each other</em>), we can infer that the F1 will have the next genotypic proportions for each gene:

1) aa     x     AA

F1) 4/4=1 Aa

2) Bb    x    bb

F1) ½ bb

     ½ Bb

3) dd    x    Dd

F1) ½ dd

     ½ Dd

4) Ee    x    Ee

F1) ¼ EE

    2/4 = ½ Ee

     ¼ ee

So, to know what the probability is that the F1 of being heterozygous for all loci, we must multiply the respective individual probabilities of getting a heterozygous genotype, like this:  

1 Aa   x   ½ Bb   x    ½ Dd    x    ½ Ee = 1/8 AaBbDdEe
