Answer:

Explanation:

Since Mark's wife was a carrier, it means that she is heterozygous for the trait. And after Mark got tested, they decided to have children due to no increased risk if they do have children, it means the condition is not an autosomal dominant condition but a recessive condition because if the condition is dominant, only one copy of the affected allele is needed to increase risk.

Thus, with a no increased risk, it means Mark is normal i.e. carries no copy of the recessive allele.

Answer:

1. You will be unable to smell

3. Your olfactory receptor cells will no longer be able to respond  to molecules trapped in the mucus.

Explanation:

The Olfactory receptors are the receptors present in the olfactory neurons which detect different odorants or smell.

The olfactory receptors are embedded in the epithelium or mucous lining of the nose in which one extension of the cell body reaches the epithelium surface and branches into cilia like structures which sense the odour.

If the axons of the olfactory cells are broken then the cells will not be able to respond to the molecules trapped in the mucus and thus no detection of odour. The signal will not be generated in response and thus will not be sent to the brain. Thus, the person will not be able to smell.

Thus, Options-1 and 3 are correct.

Why is reabsorption important
harina [27]
<span>The purpose of the kidneys is to filter waste from the blood, and other things like water, glucose, amino acids, some minerals/vitamins, and other small molecules can also get filtered out. Reabsorbtion of water in the kidneys allows the body to maintain a fluid balance (drink a lot and you pee more cause you have an excess of water). As for the other aforementioned things, they're often needed for metabolic processes (such as certain enzyme functions) so loosing it to waste decreases efficiency and efficacy of other bodily processes. </span>

maxonik [38]

Explanation:

Insulin is a protein hormone if take orally, will get digested in the digestive tract, it will not be able to affect the target site of action.

Insulin gets denatured in the digestive tract. Thus it will not be able to control the blood sugar levels.

Nancy has taken the insulin dose orally, the insulin will get denatured in the digestive system, it will not function and Nancy will remain hyperglycemic after the consumption.
