Answer:
C. "Because you have had one child with Tay-Sachs, you must each carry the allele. Any child you have has a 25% chance of having the disease
Explanation:
Tay-Sachs disease is an autosomal recessive disorder that means a child will acquire the phenotype or we can say disease only when both the alleles which cause disease are present in the child.
Here, in this condition neither parent has Tay-Sachs but they gave birth to a child who is suffering from the disease then it simply means that both the parents are carrier of this disease i.e. they both are heterozygous.
The cross and probability of healthy and diseased child is shown as under:
Mother Father
Parents Tt Tt
/ | | \
Off-springs TT Tt Tt tt
<u>Out of these 4 probable off-springs only 3 with genotype TT, Tt & Tt will be healthy while the 1 with genotype tt will be diseased.</u><u> </u><u>So, the probability of diseased child is 1/4 which is 25%. </u>
Also, the birth of children is an independent event so if one child has already been born with this disease then it doesn't mean that the next 3 children will be healthy for sure i.e. birth of first child cannot influence the next child. In short we can also say that in the next birth, there is still 25% chance of the child being born with this disease because previous birth has nothing to do with next birth.
Answer: d. none of the other answers
Explanation:
Enzymes that turn chemical energy into mechanical work are molecular motors.
There are three main components of cytoskeleton including microtubules, actin filaments and Intermediate filaments. Only actin filaments and microtubules carry the motor-driven transport on the cytoskeleton.
The most important feature of intermediate filaments is to provide the plasma membrane with mechanical support where it comes into contact with the extracellular matrix and other cells.
Unlike microtubules and microfilament , intermediate filaments are not involved in motility of the cells, hence do not associat with molecular motors.
Hence, the correct option is d.
Answer: C) Hydrogen of water is separated from oxygen.
<span>The ischemic penumbra can maintain metabolic demand with marginal blood flow from collateral circulation for a maximum of 50% before increasing in size. A penumbra is the area where the flow of blood at about 25 - 50% can maintain normal metabolic demands for 6 - 8 hours only. When it continues to increase, the human cells will die and other neurological activity will be suspended causing the person to die slowly.</span>
<span>The Phylogenetic trees are also commonly referred to as the Evolutionary Tree. This tree shows the inferred relationship between a certain set of organisms or group of organisms which are called as taxa. The tip of the branch represent the taxa and the node of the branch is for the ancestor. </span>
