The correct answer is Naltrexone.

Disease: Kleptomania & Symptoms

It is an unusual condition disorder in which a person has an urge to steal the things even if they don't need it. This is a type of impulsive disorder which is characterized by repeating and continuous patterns of stealing.

Treatment

Naltrexone is a drug that cures this disease, this drug blocks the effect of endogenous opitates that may be released during stealing. In layman language one can say that it blocks that part of he brain which feels pleasure with some of the addictive behaviors. It was found that after eight weeks of treatment by this medicine, the urge to steal things was reduced.

Each of the four pedigrees that follow represents a human family within which a genetic disease is segregating. Affected individ
Ne4ueva [31]

 Answer:

<u> The following four traits are -: </u>

  • <u>Pedigree 1 -</u> A recessive trait (autosomal recessive)  is expressed by pedigree 1.
  • <u>Pedigree 2- Recessive inheritance is defined by Pedigree 2. </u>
  • <u>Pedigree 3</u> - The inheritance of the dominant trait (autosomal dominant) is illustrated by Pedigree 3.
  • <u>Pedigree 4-</u> An X-like dominant trait is expressed by Pedigree 4.    

Explanation:

<u>Explaination of each pedigree chart</u>-

  • Pedigree 1 demonstrates the <u>recessive trait </u>since their children have been affected by two unaffected individuals. If the characteristics were X-linked, in order to have an affected daughter, I-1 would have to be affected. X^A In this, both parents are autosomal recessive trait carriers, so the child will be affected by a 1/4 (aa)
  • <u> Recessive inheritance</u> is defined by <u>Pedigree 2</u>. This is<u> X-related inheritance as autosomal recessive</u> inheritance has already been accounted for in part 1. This inference is confirmed by evidence showing that the father (I-1) is unaffected and that only the sons exhibit the characteristic in generation II, suggesting that the mother must be the carrier. The individual I-2 is a carrier for this X-linked trait. A typical  Xa chromosome is attached to the unaffected father (I-1), so the chance of carrier II-5 is 1/2. Probability of an affected son = 1/2 (probability II-5 is a carrier) x 1/2 (probability II -5 contributes (X^A) x 1/2 (probability of Y from father II-6) = 1/8. An affected daughter's likelihood is 0 because a typical X^A must be contributed by II-6.
  • The inheritance of the<u> dominant trait</u> is demonstrated by <u>Pedigree 3 </u>because affected children still have affected parents (remember that all four diseases are rare). The trait must be <u>autosomal dominant</u> because it is passed down to the son by the affected father. There is a 1/2 risk that the heterozygous mother (II-5) would pass on mutant alleles to a child of either sex for an autosomal dominant feature.
  • <u>Pedigree 4</u> is an <u>X-linked dominant function</u> characterized by the transmission to all of his daughters from the affected father but none of his son. On the mutant X chromosome, the father (I-1) passes on to all his daughters and none of his sons. As seen by his normal phenotype, II-6 therefore does not bear the mutation. An affected child's likelihood is 0.    

In the question the pedigree chart was missing ,hence it is given below.

Which of the following is an example of primary succession?
kiruha [24]

Answer:

B. the appearance of lichens and mosses in an area where a glacier has recently melted away

Explanation:

Ecological succession, which refers to the series of changes that occurs over time in an ecosystem, can be of two types namely: primary succession and secondary succession.

Primary succession is a succession that involves an area where no form of life has grown previously, hence, the area of land is barren e.g bare rock. Primary succession is first colonized by species called PIONEER SPECIES e.g. lichens, mosses etc.

According to this question, "the appearance of lichens and mosses (pioneer species) in an area where a glacier has recently melted away" is an example of PRIMARY SUCCESSION.

When an LDL particle is taken up by the cell, what impact will this have on the regulation of de novo cholesterol synthesis?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

C. HMG-CoA reductase will be dephosphorylated

Explanation:

When a low density lipoprotein particle is taken up by the cell, the impact it will have on the regulation of de novo cholesterol synthesis will be HMG-CoA reductase being dephosphorylated.

HMG-CoA( 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA reductase) is an enzyme which aids the synthesis of lipids. When the lipids are produced and taken up by the cells then the effect of the synthesis stops to avoid excess synthesis and to allow for the action of enzymes which will act ok them in the cells . This is why it leads to a dephosphorylation of the enzyme which stops the action.
