A child who weighs 32 pounds receives a prescription for amoxicillin with clavulanate

Biology
1 answer:
Leni [432]3 years ago
4 0

The child should not be given that prescription because 250 mg/125 mg amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium tablets should not be used until the child weighs at least 40 kg or 88.1849 pounds, because of the different amoxicillin to clavulanic acid ratios in the 250 mg/125 mg amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium tablets (250/125).

Micah has straight hair. If he is homozygous for the gene that determines straight hair, what is true of his parents?
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

They have contributed same allele for straight hair.

Explanation:

There are two conditions homozygous and heterozygous. In homozygous conditions both the allele of a particular gene is same in an offspring which means the offspring got two same alleles from its parent for a particular gene and if an offspring is heterozygous for a gene that suggests that the parent has contributed two different alleles for that gene in the offspring.

So If Micah is homozygous for straight hair then it can be concluded that his parents have contributed two same alleles for straight hair genes.
