The country in which Joseph is living is a least developed country (LDC), also often referred to as a ''third world country''. This type of countries are the countries that are at the bottom in pretty much every parameter used for measuring the quality of the human life. The government and the public institutions are corrupt, and also available for only certain people, the infrastructure is terrible, the industry undeveloped, the economy in dire condition, education is of very low quality...

These types of countries though are the ones that have the highest fertility rates, often the average being between 6 and 8 children per woman. Unfortunately, because of the bad conditions lot of those children die as infants or in the early childhood, on top of that the life expectancy is very low, usually in the range between 40 and 50 years of age.

One of the traits that we looked at in class was a widow's peak (has peak is dominant, no peak is recessive). For each individua
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Explanation: 1) Individual who is bald but neither parents has a widow's peak: As having a peak is dominant and the individual is bald with parents that doesn't have the trait, the genotype is recessive, in the case ww;

2) Individual has a widow's peak: The individual's genotype can be WW, homozygous for the trait or Ww, heterozygous for the trait, depending on the genotype of the parents;

3) Individual can't roll their tongue: Being able to roll the tongue is a dominant characteristics, so if the individual can't roll their tongue means the genotype is recessive. But, there is little evidence that this trait is dominant or inheritable;

4) Individual has a widow's peak  but their mother does not: In this case, the genotype of the individual is heterozygous (Ww), because the mother is recessive (ww) and the offspring has the trait, so the father must have had it;

5) If an individual does not have a widow's peak (ww), which genotype would be impossible? If this individual crosses over with another individual with the same trait, their children will be all recessive for widow's peak (ww), so there is no possibility of an offspring with the trait;

If the initial individual crosses over with an individual with widow's peak, two possiblities can occur:

  • If the crossover is with an individual homozygous for the trait (WW): all their children will have widow's peak with genotype Ww. So, the possibility of not having the peak is 0;
  • If the crossover is with an individual heterozygous for the trait (Ww), there will be a probability of 25% for the children to have genotype WW, a probability of 50% for the offspring to be heterozygous (Ww) and has the trait and probability of 25% to be recessive (ww) and therefore doesn't have the trait;

Mkey [24]

Answer:

Broad-spectrum antibiotics can cause antibiotic resistance.

Explanation:

  • Antibiotics are the substances that inhibit the growth of or kill the bacteria and hence, these are used as medications for the treatment of a lot of bacterial diseases.
  • These antibiotics can either be of broad-spectrum or the narrow spectrum.
  • The broad-spectrum antibiotics are the ones that are effective against a variety of bacteria, both gram-positive and negative whereas the narrow-spectrum antibiotics are the ones that target only a specific type of bacteria.
  • Since the bacteria can mutate very fast and hence, develop antibiotic resistance, the doctors usually avoid prescribing broad-spectrum antibiotics and only use them when the causal bacteria is completely unknown.
  • Hence, in the given case the provider prescribes separate medications for both types of bacteria.
