A medical researcher measured the diastolic wall thicknesses of the arteries in a young, healthy test subject. The test subject

came back 20 years later to have the measurements repeated. The measurements revealed that the subject's artery walls were half as thick as they were originally. Which of the following is the most likely long-term effect if the measured trend continues?
a) Arteries and veins will fuse, causing oxygenated and deoxygenated blood to mix.

b) Arteries will be unable to withstand the pressure exerted by the heart, causing an aneurysm.

c) Blood volume will increase, causing the kidneys to work harder to maintain blood pressure.

d) Blood pressure will decrease, causing nausea, dizziness, loss of consciousness, and potential death.

Answer:

b) Arteries will be unable to withstand the pressure exerted by the heart, causing an aneurysm.

Explanation:

Arteries are the blood vessels with thick wall and narrow cavities. Arteries receive blood by pumping of the heart and their thick wall makes them able to bear the resulting high blood pressure of blood. Continuous thinning of walls of arteries would make susceptible to rupture due to high blood pressure. The person may develop an aneurysm in which the thin walls of arteries bulge out by high pressure of blood.

Your first cousin died of tay-sachs disease (autosomal recessive, incidence 0.09%). you are not affected, nor is anyone else in
AlexFokin [52]
<span>25%

   Starting from my First cousin family, I know for sure that the Uncle is is a carrier (Aa) and he must have married a wife who is also a carrier (Aa) and that is how they got an affected son. Thus, this leads to the fact that either both of my grandparents are carriers (Aa x Aa) or only one of them is a carrier (Aa x AA). As a result, the chances that my mom (who is related to the uncle who has a defected child) is a carrier is either (2/3 or 1/2) depending if my grandparents genotype, respectively. Thus, if my mom chances of being a carrier is 1/2 then my chance of being a carrier is 1/4. (given that my dad is not a carrier b/c CF is a rare disease) However, if my mom chance of being a carrier is 2/3 then my chance of being a carrier is (2/3)x(1/2)=(1/3) As a result, I could either be 1/4 or 1/3. But since the answer only provide the choice of 1/4 and not 1/3. This leave 25% is the correct answer.</span>
