Answer:
a) The genotype of her father = "aa".
The genotype of her mother = "Aa".
The genotype of Sally is "Aa".
b) 1/2
c) 1/2
Explanation:
a) Sally's father has alkaptonuria. So, the genotype of her father is "aa". Her mother is normal. Since her brother is affected by the disease, he should be homozygous recessive (aa). This means that the mother also has one copy of "a" allele and is heterozygous dominant (Aa). A cross between Aa (mother) and aa (father) would give 50% affected progeny with "Aa" genotype. So, the genotype of Sally is "Aa".
b) The genotype of her mother= Aa
The genotype of her father = aa
Aa x aa = 1/2 Aa (affected): 1/2 aa (normal)
So, if Sally's parents have another child, there is a 1/2 probability that this child will have alkaptonuria.
c) The genotype of Sally = Aa
Genotype of the man Sally marries= aa (since he is affected with alkaptonuria)
Aa x aa= 1/2 Aa (affected): 1/2 aa (normal)
There is a 1/2 probability that their child will have alkaptonuria.
Answer:
non-specific system
Explanation:
The non-specific immune system is the system that works 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and protects you, regardless of the organism you encounter. This system is composed of the general defenses of the organism that work continuously, creating barriers that protect the body from the entry of any pathogen or foreign substance. This system is composed of T cells, which are true killers of pathogens and which guarantee efficient and complete safety.
Gas chromatography (GC) is a method of separating mixed compounds.
The separation will depend on each compound's retention time. Compounds with
higher molecular weights will elute out slower than those with lower molecular
weight. This is due to their difference in boiling points. The larger the
structure, the higher the boiling point.

Answer: c. Transition Reaction
Explanation:
During the transition reaction, Acetyl-CoA is formed and connects the first stage of glycolysis with the Krebs Cycle (Citric Acid Cycle). In the presence of oxygen, pyruvate enters the mitochondria and is oxidized to form a compound of 2 carbon, acetate, with energy and CO2 release. During this process, the acetate binds to a coenzyme(coenzyme A (CoA)) - forming the acetyl-coenzyme A.
The 3 steps:
1. pyruvate is oxidized and forms acetate with liberation of CO2;
2. the energy released in the oxidation of pyruvate is stored in the reduction reaction of NAD+ to NADH + H+
3. The acetate molecule combines with coenzyme A to form acetyl-coenzyme A.
