Genes and the environment
DNA is a chain of nucleotides bonded together. On that chain there are particular portions of it that the sequence of the nucleotide codes for particular proteins; this is known as a gene. In eukaryotric cells, DNA is coiled around proteins such as histones to form chromatids which when two join at the centre by a centromere to form a chromosome.
Answer: The correct answer to the question is option C
OSTEOARTHRITIS.
The client has a degenerative form of disease that is evidenced by osteoarthritis.
Explanation: Osteoporosis is otherwise known as degenerative joint disease.
In a healthy joint,a protective cartilage cushions the end of bones(articulating bones) and as well acting as a shock absorber.
In osteoarthritis,these cartilage that acts as a cushion to the bones wears down down or generates with time exposing the joint and the bones predisposing them to mild to moderate friction that occurs as a result of mobility of the bones/joint.
Osteoarthritis mostly affect joints of the hips, hands,spine and knees.
Some of the common symptoms of Osteoarthritis are;pain in the joints of the hands,knees,hips,lower back and neck with crackles,stiffness and tenderness of the joints which often results to difficulty in walking and deformity of the joint if left untreated.
The client should remove all metal objects (such as piercings, rings, jewelry of any kind) the day of the scan.
The correct answer is: about 99%.
The main difference between two random people’s genetic make-up issingle base pair differences, or polymorphisms (SNPs). There are about one SNP per 1000 bases. Since the human genome is about 3 Gbp long, about 3 million SNPs among two random people is present. SNPs may occur within coding sequences of genes, non-coding regions of genes, or in the intergenic regions.
