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.

Answer: "Let's review your medication history and whether you consume bladder irritants."

Explanation:

Bladder irritants such as caffeine or alcohol can aggravate urge incontinence, which can occur if diuretics taken in the morning.

The nurse will begin by analysing those factors affecting the bladder irritants. Without further consideration the nurse should not dismiss this as an isolated case. This is too early to refer the person to the healthcare provider, or prescribe undergarments for incontinence.

Hence, the suitable statement by nurse is "Let's review your medication history and whether you consume bladder irritants."

Describe each type of mountain. Include the type of boundary where they are likely formed and characteristics of each. Folded Mo
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Folded mountains are all those originated by movements and collisions of the great plates that form the earth's crust. Fault-block mountains are those that appear from a break in the crust, a fact that causes the rock blocks to move up and down and form elevations.

Explanation:

The parallel movement of the earth's crust leads to the appearance of Folded Mountains. According to this theory, Folded Mountains originate from the collision between two tectonic plates. Some of these plates are huge and can support and carry entire continents. When two plates collide, the denser one gets under the other, and this causes the sediments deposited in the basin or geosyncline that separated them to fold up. The large folds formed in the compressed sediment can break apart and form mountains.  Fault-block Mountains are related to normal wide-angle faults that gradually decrease in dip with depth. Most of the Fault-block Mountains form in response to a large uplift.
