Smoking and drinking can cause major birth defects. It can also cause the baby to be very sick when it is born, and have a near death experience.

depending on the amount of intake, the baby could also be born addicted to either one. It is very dangerous to drink or smoke during the development of a child.

Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is an X-linked, recessive condition caused by mutation of the HPRT1 gene responsible for purine metabolism.
Elanso [62]

Answer:

B. The father did not contribute a sex chromosome to his daughter due to nondisjunction of the sex chromosomes. The daughter is XO and her only X chromosome came from her mother, who was a carrier.

A.The mother's X chromosomes failed to separate during meiosis, and the daughter inherited two X chromosomes with the Lesch-Nyhan mutation. The father contributed no sex chromosomes.

Explanation:

As seen in the question above, a little girl was diagnosed with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, which is an X-linked recessive condition caused by a mutation in the HPRT1 gene responsible for purine metabolism.

The little girl's parents do not have the syndrome, and no one in the little girl's paternal family presented this syndrome, however, we know that the maternal grandfather of the little girl's mother had the syndrome, which means that it was the mother's genetic material that contributed to the development of the syndrome in the little girl. This was because the little girl did not receive any X chromosomes from her father, but she inherited the two X chromosomes from her mother that coded for the Lesch-Nyhan mutation. This happened because the mother's X chromosome disjuction did not occur during meiosis I.

As shown above, the father did not contribute any sex chromosomes to his daughter, which means that the daughter is XO and her only X chromosome came from her mother, who was a carrier.

Which of the following statements is false? once an invasive species is well-established, it’s virtually impossible to eradicate
VARVARA [1.3K]

The following statement is false: MOST US STATES PROHIBIT THE IMPORTATION OF ANIMAL SPECIES LIKELY TO BECOME INVASIVE IF THEY ESCAPE INTO THE WILD.

Presently, most US states do not have any law, which prohibit people from bringing into the US animal species that are likely to become invasive.

Invasive plant and animals are a great source of problems in America. These species usually destroy habitats and native species, this usually throw the ecological communities out of balance. The government spend  as much as $120 billions every year to control these invasive species.
