White blood cells are especially active when you are sick because their primary job is to fight off infections – often bacteria

or viruses that do not belong in you. Once they locate the invader making you sick, they eat it and destroy it. What organelle do you think is plentiful in white blood cells?

Answer:

Lysosomes

Explanation:

Lysosomes are membrane bound organelles that contain degradative enzymes. They degrade worn-out cellular parts and may also be used by cells to degrade/destroy invading bacteria or viruses. Hence, since white blood cells are primarily responsible for fighting infections, it is expected that they have a high amount of lysosomes (which they indeed do have in high amount).

1. The main aim of the Human Genome Project was to determine the DNA Sequence of every human gene.

2. Variation in skin colour is an example of polygenic inheritance

This Human Karyotype is unusual because it has an extra chromosome at chromosome 21.

Klinefelters syndrome is shown in the second figure

Explanation:

1. The Human Genome Project's main goal was to sequence all the 30,000 genes and 3 million base pairs in their makeup for the early detection of diseases, gene therapy and molecular level studies.

2. Human skin colour is determined by the pigment melanin. The Dominant allele is responsible for dark colours as it produces more melanin. The melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) gene and Tyrosinase enzyme codes for the human skin colour. Polygenic inheritance are the traits which are controlled by one or more genes.

<u>figures:</u>

<u>The extra chro</u>mosome at the 21st chromosome pairs is called trisomy 21 or Down's Syndrome. It is due to the abnormal cell division/meiosis resulting in an extra X chromosome. This leads to thechanges the in physical development of  the individual.

Klinefelter's Syndrome: There are 47 chromosomes and 2 or more X chromosomes in this syndrome of males. The resulting male suffering from Klinefelter would be sterile and have poorly developed testicles.
