1.What is the probability that a sperm from the father will contain the PKU allele?
Probability = ½
2.What is the probability that an egg from the mother will contain the PKU allele?
Probability = ½
3.What is the probability that their next child will have PKU?
Probability = ¼ (because each parent has ½ chance ½ X ½ = ¼)
4.What is the probability that their next child will be heterozygous for the PKU gene?
Probability = ½ (because each parent has ½ chance of donating the ‘P’ allele and ½ chance of donating the ‘p’ allele (½ x ½) + (½ x ½) = ½
The difference between a dominant trait and a recessive trait is that the dominant trait must have one copy of each from two different parent
Example: Brown Hair=H
Light hair=h
Hh is dominant because this is of a copy of each from two parents
A recessive trait must have two same copies coming from the same two parents
Example: HH
Based on the facts presented about the moon, the statement that supports the idea that what we always see is the same side of the moon is statement 1. The moon rotates on its axis for about four weeks or one month.and this happens about the same period that it orbits the Earth.
Answer:
Translation is the process of translating the sequence of a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule to a sequence of amino acids during protein synthesis. The genetic code describes the relationship between the sequence of base pairs in a gene and the corresponding amino acid sequence that it encodes.
NO, they should not.
Erythrocytes, leucocytes, and proteins (albumin)
are not small enough to pass through the capillaries of the
glomerulus unless there is damage to the glomerulus. However, glucose does pass through into the glomerular filtrate. Nonetheless, glucose is fully reabsorbed back in the proximal
convoluted tubule (unless you have severe diabetes).
