Answer:

The disease is autosomal dominant.

Explanation:

Huntigton's disease is an autosomal dominant disease because the allele for this disease is present on an autosomal chromosome and the person with even one mutated allele (H) can develop the disease even if he has one normal allele (h) too. If a person is affected with Huntigton's disease, there are 50 percent chances that the children will also suffer from the disease.


For example: A father is suffering from Huntigton's disease but mother is normal. Let us see how it will be passed to kids.


P1:                                   Hh :           hh

Gametes:                         H :         h:      h:       h

Offspring:                         Hh:       Hh:      hh:        hh

                                               50%        :       50%

Therefore, 50 percent chances are there that the kids will have disease even if only parent suffers from it.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

The correct labels of the three planes are -

a. axial or transverse plane.

b. sagittal plane

c.. coronal plane

Explanation:

The human body can be divided into three planes on the basis of anatomy - the sagittal plane, the coronal plane, and the transverse plane

A sagittal plane is a longitudinal plane that divides the human body in the left and right parts.

A coronal plane is an anatomical plane that divides the body vertically into the back and front, ventral or dorsal (to be more specific).

An Axial or transverse plane, it is the plane that divides in the upper part of the body and lower part of the body.

Thus, the correct answer is -

a. axial or transverse plane.

b. sagittal plane

c. coronal plane
