d from the hospital 10 days ago and comes in today stating, "I just had to come to the hospital today because I can't catch my breath and my legs are as big as tree trunks."

She reports gaining 1 to 2 pounds every day since her discharge.

Answer:

M.G. may not have been counselled properly on other non-pharmacological measures for the management of heart failure, exercise included.

Explanation: Non-pharmacological measures for the management of heart failure :

  • Compliance—give careful advice about disease, treatment, and self help strategies
  • Diet—ensure adequate general nutrition and, in obese patients, weight reduction
  • Salt—advise patients to avoid high salt content foods and not to add salt (particularly in severe cases of congestive heart failure)
  • Fluid—urge overloaded patients and those with severe congestive heart failure to restrict their fluid intake
  • Alcohol—advise moderate alcohol consumption (abstinence in alcohol related cardiomyopathy)  
  • Smoking—avoid smoking (adverse effects on coronary disease, adverse haemodynamic effects)  
  • Exercise—regular exercise should be encouraged
  • Vaccination—patients should consider influenza and pneumococcal vaccinations

In humans, a type of blindness is due to a dominant allele; normal vision is the result of a recessive allele. Migraine headache
yan [13]

Answer:

Yes.

Probability of such child = 1/2 or 50%

Explanation:

According to the question, below are the genotypes and phenotypes possibilities:

aa = normal vision & no headache

Aa = normal vision & no headache

AA = blindness & headache

                                                                      Male                       Female

                                                                        Aa                            aa

Possible genotypes of progeny:            Aa        Aa           aa         aa

So it is clear that out of the 4 probable children, 2 with 'genotype aa' will have normal vision & no headache.

Mathematical expression is as under:

2/4 = 1/2 that means 50% progeny.
