Achondroplasia is a common form of dwarfism caused by an autosomal dominant mutation in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3

(FGFR3) gene. Two copies of the mutant gene are invariably fatal before or shortly after birth. If a person with achondroplasia marries a person of normal height, what is the probability that they will have a child with achondroplasia?

<h2>Symptoms of Achondroplasia</h2>

Explanation:

  • Achondroplasia is caused about by a quality change (transformation) in the <em>FGFR3 gene</em>
  • The <em>FGFR3 quality</em> makes a protein called fibroblast development factor <em>receptor 3 </em>that is engaged with changing over ligament to bone
  • <em>FGFR3</em> is the main quality known to be related with <em>achondroplasia Achondroplasia</em> is acquired in an autosomal predominant example, which implies one duplicate of the adjusted quality in every cell is adequate to<em> cause the confusion</em>
  • In the rest of the cases, individuals with <em>achondroplasia </em>have acquired an adjusted <em>FGFR3 quality</em> from a couple of <em>affected parents</em>

Iron rich deposits that formed about 2 billion years ago have red layers. Layers formed before then were not red. The red layers
Amanda [17]

Answer:

D. The biosphere change the lithosphere

Explanation:

The red formed due to oxygen which is produced by plants in the process of photosynthesis. This oxygen then reacted with iron atom and formed oxidized iron layers of sedimentary rock. So here plants are responsible for the formation of these layers and we considered plants as part of biosphere so we can say that biosphere is responsible for the change of lithosphere.

What is fitness in biology
MariettaO [177]

Fitness is the quantitative representation of natural and sexual selection within evolutionary biology. It can be defined either with respect to a genotype or to a phenotype in a given environment.

I hope this helps, if you need any more help on science please ask me, if it is right please give me brainest if not tell me that it wrong

Have a nice day!

Beta cells of the pancreatic islets of Langerhans act as glucose sensors, adjusting insulin output in response to blood glucose
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

The host's immune response to the transplanted graft, which is commonly exhibited as pericapsular fibrotic overgrowth (PFO), is one of the key causes of defective encapsulated islets in (PFO).PFO creates a barrier upon this capsule surface that inhibits and impedes oxygen and nutrients from entering, resulting in islet cell deprivation, hypoxia, and/or death. This host immune response was missing under in vitro circumstances, which explains why glucose sensing and insulin release were more efficient than in vivo circumstances. Nonetheless, utilizing nanoporous encapsulation or modifying the microcapsular shape and geometry can solve these issues.

The arctic fox and gray fox evolved from the same species over thousands of years. can you place these steps in the process of a
elena55 [62]
Allopatric speciation, also referred to as geographic speciation, is a method of the formation of new species due to isolation of the species from one another through geographic means.

The first step in this process is geographic isolation, which means that the original population is divided into two groups due to geographical reasons such as movement of continents or formation of water bodies.

Next, the species are subjected to different selection pressures due to their different environments. Eventually, the gene pool becomes very different for the two species due to the different selection pressures and because they are not allowed to mix.

Finally, after enough time passes, speciation occurs, which means that the two populations cannot breed to form fertile offspring.
