If Jack and Jill have a child with an AAa genotype, during which meiotic division, and in which parent, could nondisjunction hav

Further information from another source:

Jill is heterozygous for gene A and is going to have a child with Jack, who is homozygous recessive for gene A.

Answer:

Maternal meiosis II

Explanation:

Jill has the genotype Aa, and Jack has the genotype aa. Jack can only contribute the a, whereas Jill can contribute A or a. For the child to have 2 copies of the A allele and two copies of the a allele, that means the nondisjunction must have happened in the mother.

As for the stage of meiosis, non-disjunction in meiosis I means that homologous chromosomes fail to separate properly. This would mean that the child would inherit Aa from its mother and a from its father. This is not the case.

Non-disjunction in meiosis II means identical sister chromatids fail to separate properly, which means the child would inherit either aa from its mother, or AA from its mother, and a from its father. This could give the genotype AAa. Therefore, nondisjunction must have occurred in maternal meiosis II

maw [93]

Immunological memory accounts for the ancient observation that someone who had recovered from the plague could safely care for those newly diseased.

Significance of plague disease

The plague is a contagious sickness that affects both animals and people.  Bacteria named Yersinia pestis causes it.

  • This bacteria is prevalent in rats and their fleas around the world, including in the United States.

Sunlight and drying are both effective in killing Y. pestis.

  • Even yet, when discharged into the air, the bacteria may live for up to an hour, however, this might vary depending on the environment.
  • Pneumonic plague is one of several types of plague. These types may occur independently or in combination, depending on the circumstances:
  • When Yersinia pestis attacks the lungs, it causes pneumonic plague. This disease can spread from person to person via the air.

Transmission can occur if a person breathes in aerosolized germs, as could occur in a bioterrorist strike.

  • Pneumonic plague can also be disseminated by inhaling Y. pestis suspended in respiratory droplets from a person (or animal) infected with the disease.
  • In order to become infected in this manner, you must generally come into direct and personal touch with the sick person or animal.
  • If a person with bubonic or septicemic plague goes untreated, the germs can migrate to the lungs and cause pneumonic plague.

The most frequent type of plague is bubonic plague.

  • This happens when an infected flea bites someone or when materials contaminated with Y. pestis enter through a skin breach.
  • Patients have enlarged, sensitive lymph nodes (known as buboes), as well as fever, headache, chills, and weakness.

Hence, the correct answer is option D

Nataly [62]

Answer:

Transcription, 5' cap addition, addition of poly-A tail, exon splicing, passage through nuclear membrane

Explanation:

After being synthesized during the transcription, mRNA (pre-mRNA) must be modified in order to be functional (mature mRNA) and exported from the nucleus for the process of translation.Modification of pre-mRNA include:

  1. 5' capping-addition of 7-methylguanosine to the 5' end which protects the pre-mRNA
  2. addition of  adenine residues to form a poly(A) tail whic is also with protective role (from ribonuclease digestion)
  3. RNA splicing-excision of introns and reconection of exons

Modified mRNA can now be transported from the nucleus into the cytoplasm.
