Answer:
a) The genotype of her father = "aa".
The genotype of her mother = "Aa".
The genotype of Sally is "Aa".
b) 1/2
c) 1/2
Explanation:
a) Sally's father has alkaptonuria. So, the genotype of her father is "aa". Her mother is normal. Since her brother is affected by the disease, he should be homozygous recessive (aa). This means that the mother also has one copy of "a" allele and is heterozygous dominant (Aa). A cross between Aa (mother) and aa (father) would give 50% affected progeny with "Aa" genotype. So, the genotype of Sally is "Aa".
b) The genotype of her mother= Aa
The genotype of her father = aa
Aa x aa = 1/2 Aa (affected): 1/2 aa (normal)
So, if Sally's parents have another child, there is a 1/2 probability that this child will have alkaptonuria.
c) The genotype of Sally = Aa
Genotype of the man Sally marries= aa (since he is affected with alkaptonuria)
Aa x aa= 1/2 Aa (affected): 1/2 aa (normal)
There is a 1/2 probability that their child will have alkaptonuria.
What is your question? Math can solve many things including Questions. :)
Answer:
A. gene structure changes ---> protein structure changes ----> protein function changes ----> observable trait changes
Explanation:
The gene structure changes before the protein structure, enabling it to building a new structure and therefore, the previous protein functions have a different function afterwards. Then, the observable traits will be affected and modified according to the new structure.
Answer:
Plant cells are eukaryotic cells present in green plants, photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae. Their distinctive features include primary cell walls containing cellulose, hemicelluloses and pectin, the presence of plastids with the capability to perform photosynthesis and store starch, a large vacuole that regulates turgor pressure, the absence of flagella or centrioles, except in the gametes, and a unique method of cell division involving the formation of a cell plate or phragmoplast that separates the new daughter cells.
