Answer:

A) Madison’s parents’ blood types may be either A & 0, or A & A.

B) Depending on her parents’ genotypes, Madison’s genotype may be either AA or A0

Explanation:

Since the A allele is dominant with respect to the 0, a person with blood type A may have either one (A0 genotype) or two A alleles (AA genotype). In contrast, a person with blood type 0 may only have two 0 alleles (00 genotype).

Because one of the sisters has type 0 blood, we have to assume that both of her parents have at least one 0 allele. There are two situations which may give rise to the described scenario (see Punnett squares):

Alternative 1: One of the parents has A blood type (A0 genotype), and the other has 0 blood type (00 genotype). Madison’s genotype may only be A0.

| 0 | 0

——————————

A | A0 | A0

——————————

0 | 00 | 00

Alternative 2: Both parents have A blood type and A0 genotypes. Madison’s genotype may be either A0 (probability of 2/3) or AA (probability of 1/3).

| A | 0

——————————

A | AA | A0

——————————

0 | 0A | 00

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer: during the course of infection the parasite, Giardia lamblia, pass through many anatomical locations to achieve its pathogenic effects which occurs in one host.

Explanation: infective form of the parasite is the mature cyst. Infection is acquired through ingestion of cysts in contaminated water or food. From the mouth the cyst passes down to the duodenum where it undergoes excystation. The cyst hatches out two trophozoites. By means of concavity on its ventral surface the trophozoites attaches to the epithelial lining of the small intestines. Encrustation occurs commonly in transit down the colon. Trophozoites retract the flagella into the axonemes, the cytoplasm becomes condensed and a thin tough hyaline cyst wall is secreted. As the cyst matures, the internal structures are doubled, so that when excystation occurs, the cytoplasm divides thus reproducing two trophozoites. Trophozoites are expelled through the anus with diarrhoeal stools.
