Shkiper50 [21]3 years ago
5 0

The vector that would be the best choice for cystic fibrosis gene therapy is adeno-associated virus for it has valuable reasons. First, it is huge enough to carry the gene, second, it will infect the right type of tissue, third, it will not cause an immune response and lastly, it infects the particular cells that divide irregularly. Therefore, this vector will definitely treat cystic fibrosis for it can target affected cells, which is a great help in the normal functioning of an organ.

Which of the following is an example of a weather event?
solong [7]

The correct answer is C. A windstorm blew down trees in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area in Minnesota on July 4, 1999.

Explanation:

A weather event refers to a specific phenomenon in weather that in most cases is not common but particular and specific, which is different to weather patterns, this includes specific hurricanes, abnormal rain patterns, etc. Considering this, the one that is an example of a weather event is "A windstorm blew down trees in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area in Minnesota on July 4, 1999" because this is a specific phenomenon rather than a pattern in weather as int the case of hurricane seasons or permanent weather conditions.

Six fingered offspring are formed from normal parents, why?
Kruka [31]
Dominant' traits will actually disappear faster if they are disadvantageous.

Think about it: if everyone who has even a single copy of a particular allele is at a disadvantage (manifests the phenotype, in this case six fingers), then even single copies are selected against.

In the case of recessive traits, selection occurs only against homozygous carriers, who may be very rare if the allele itself is rare.

A concrete example would be something like Tay-Sachs disease. If the allele that causes this were dominant, every carrier would die before adulthood, and it would occur only as a very rare de novo mutation. But because it is recessive, it persists for now; heterozygous carriers have no disadvantage.
