What component of the blood does Warfarin affect

maksim [4K]

Anticoagulants such as heparin or warfarin (also called Coumadin) slow down your body's process of making clots. Antiplatelet drugs, such as aspirin, prevent blood cells called platelets from clumping together to form a clot. When you take a blood thinner, follow directions carefully.

In hamsters, we can examine the genes for coat color and eye color which are linked:B = brown coat, b = white coat, G = green ey

Inessa [10]

Answer:

10.2 cM

Explanation:

Given,

pure breeding parent 1 : BBgg = brown coat and pink eyes

pure breeding parent 2 : bbGG = white coat and green eyes

BBGG X bbgg = F1 = BbGg ( All are brown with green eyes )

When F1 progeny is test crossed with white coat and pink eyes hamster:

BbGg X BbGg = F2 =

brown, pink eyes = 99 = parental

white, green eyes = 103 = parental

brown, green eyes = 12 = recombinant

white, pink eyes = 11 = recombinant

Recombination frequency =

(total number of recombinants / total progeny ) * 100

= [( 11 + 12 ) / ( 99 + 103 + 12 + 11 )] * 100 = (23/225)*100 = 0.102 * 100 = 10.2 %

1 % recombination frequency = 1 cM distance between genes

Hence, the distance between B and G gene is 10.2 cM

Which cells are required to process and present antigens from foreign material as the initial step in the immune response?

Alexxandr [17]

The macrophage is the cell responsible for detecting, engulfing and destroying pathogens and apoptotic cells. These cells process and present antigens (foreign materials) to immunocompetent cells and thus they are the key mediators in the development of all immune reactions.

How is an insulin gene removed from a strand of human DNA?

Vlada [557]

The human gene for insulin production is identified and removed using enzymes called restriction enzymes. The same restriction enzymes are used to cut open a plasmid (a small, circular section of DNA).
