a. Genotype: ½ Yy : ½ yy; Phenotype: ½ yellow : ½ green
b. Genotype: all Yy; Phenotype: all yellow
c. Genotype: ½ Yy : ½ yy; Phenotype: all yellow

Answer: A. Genotype: 1/2 Yy; 1/2 yy. Phenotype: 1/2 Yellow; 1/2 Green.

Explanation: The answer lies in Punnett´s Square. A visual representation of Mendelian inheritance. Dominant genes always express when an organism presents them. Recessive genes express when both alleles contain the recessive gene. A heterozygote contains different alleles for the same gene (Yy). A homozygote contains the same alleles for the same gene (YY/yy), which can be a Dominant (YY) or Recessive (yy) Homozygote.

A client undergoing a skin test has been intradermally injected with a disease-specific antigen on the inner forearm. The client
yarga [219]

Answer:

Yes, there is a need to assure the client that this is a normal reaction.

Explanation:

In the given case, it is the duty of a nurse to assure the patient that swelling takes place while performing intradermal vaccination. As with the administration of disease-specific antigens, the injected area inflames that generally takes place due to the development of antibodies against the presented antigens.  

Thus, both the patient and the nurse need to be calm in such a situation and should leave the swelling open so that it can get heal by itself. In case, if one applies ice packs or rubs the affected area, it can enhance the condition and may result in more issues.

Tom has developed chronic kidney disease. he has lost weight and has a poor intake. the most likely cause is:
almond37 [142]
Chronic kidney disease is when your kidney is not functioning properly. Kidneys contain filters called nephrons. It is the their job to filter the blood of waste products and extra fluid. As a result, your body flushes the waste out as urine. The most common causes of chronic kidney disease are diabetes and high blood pressure. If your blood vessels contain a high concentration of sugar and cholesterol, the nephrons would take the exhaustive work. In the long run, if you keep eating unhealthy food, the kidney could no longer catch up. Thus, resulting to chronic kidney disease.

Imagine that there is a mutation in the cyclin gene such that its gene product is nonfunctional. What kind of effect would this
Daniel [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is - The cell would be unable to produce.

Explanation:

Cyclin is a protein that helps in cell division to complete the various stages. It has an essential function, however, cyclin does not play role in enzymatic reactions bit bind with cyclin-dependent kinase enzyme they form maturation promoting factors which can phosphorylate specific proteins and result in many different stages of the cell cycle.

Mutation in cyclin gene that did not allow to produce cyclin protein will cease the cell cycle and there would be no future daughter cell and the cell would not be able to produce.
