Nicole was as diagnosed with Leigh Syndrome (LS). Leigh syndrome is said to be “a severe neurological disorder that is characterized by the degeneration of the central nervous system and is associated with a nuclear mutation in the SURF1 gene”. Which leads to a defect in a protein found in the mitochondria. It affects a protein normally found in cellular organelles, most likely the Mitochondria organelle which is involved in energy production. The aforesaid syndrome is passed down through autosomal recessive conditions. In the case of Kenneth and Vicki (Nicole’s parents), both of them may have working and nonworking copies of the gene and unfortunately, both of them passed down the nonworking gene to Nicole.
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-true.
Explanation:
Follicular stimulatory hormone or FSH and inhibin are the complex proteins which play a various biological role in the reproductive system.
The FSH stimulates the secretion of inhibin from the gonads in both males (Sertoli cells) and females (granulosa layer). The production of inhibin suppresses the secretion of FSH from the pituitary gland.
The suppression of FSH directly suppresses the secretion of further inhibin and thus, option-true is the correct answer.
A chemical element is a substance that contains only one type of atom. If a substance contains more than one type of atom, it is a compound. ... The smallest particle of such an element is an atom. Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
The probability is Ss×ss = Ss, Ss, ss, ss = 50% heterozygous genotype, 50% homozygous recessive genotype = 50% yellow phenotype, 50% phenotype
