Answer:

Muscle Fibers Type I

Explanation:

Muscle fibers in the body are classified based on how they produce energy or generate force. The  Muscle Fibers type I, type I C, type IIC, type IIAC, type IIA, type IIA and type IIX are generally classified as being either slow-twitch or fast-twitch.

Muscle Fibers Type I is generally a slow twitch fiber. They can provide their own source of energy and can sustain force for an extended period of time, but they are not able to generate a significant amount of force.

However, the activation threshold is quite low, this means that while they get recruited first when a muscle contracts, they are unable to generate the amount of force necessary for the specific activity. They are, therefore, bypassed through the principle of selective recruitment and the fast-twitch muscle fibers are engaged.

If two people who are heterozygous for the PKU allele have a child with PKU, what is the likelihood their next child will have P
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is 25% likely.

Explanation:

Phenylketonuria (PKU) is inherited in an <u>autosomal recessive pattern</u>, which means <u>both copies of the gene in each cell must have mutations</u> to express the disease.  

If we let the allele causing PKU be “p” and the normal allele be “P”, the affected individual must have “pp” combination. If both parents are heterozygous, this means the have “Pp” combination and therefore the result in their progeny will be the following:

¼: PP (25%)

¼: pp (25%)

½: Pp (50%)

This pattern will repeat itself every time they try to have a child.
