<span>In 80% of the cases of offspring with cri-du-chat syndrome, the father's gametes were the source of the deletion of the chromosome as opposed to the mother's egg being the cause. Therefore, cri-du-chat is largely caused by the father's genetics, not the mothers.</span>

In cardiac muscle

a. an action potential spreads throughout the Z discs.

b. intercalated discs connect the muscle fibers together.

c. calcium enters the cell from storage chambers called intercalated discs.

d. potassium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum

Answer:

b. intercalated discs connect the muscle fibers together.

Explanation:

Intercalated discs are components of the muscles found in the heart(cardiac muscles).

Intercalated discs join the cardiomyoctes (muscle cells or fibers) together so that they can function as one and transmit signals amongst themselves during the contraction of the heart.

Intercalated discs are made of up desmosomes and gap junctions.

Intercalated discs are found on the lining of the sacromere and can only be seen by using a microscope to observe the longitudinal section of the heart tissue.

Arisa [49]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Let the disorder be represented by the allele a.

Since the disease is an autosomal recessive one, affected individuals will have the genotype aa and normal individuals will have the genotype Aa or AA.

Since the four adults are carriers, their genotypes would be Aa.

                    Aa     x     Aa

Progeny:    AA    2Aa    aa

Probability of being affected = 1/4

Probability of being a carrier = 1/2

Probability of not being affected = 3/4

(a) The chance that the child second child of Mary and Frank will have alkaptonuria = 1/2

(b) The chance that  the third child of Sara and James will be free of the condition = 3/4

(c)

(d) If someone has no family history of the disorder, their genotype would be AA.

                 AA     x     aa

                        4 Aa

<em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history </em>= 0

(e)

(f) <em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history</em> = 0
