A woman with an x-linked dominant disorder mates with a phenotypically normal male. on average, what percentage of this couple's
alex41 [277]
E. 0%

X-linked dominant disorders are not very common in females because it has to be on BOTH of their alleles in order to occur phenotypically.

Because you get one chromosome from your mom and another one from your dad, it would be impossible for the daughter to get the disorder because the dad doesn’t have it on his X chromosome to pass on to her.

In the case of the daughter, the focus is whether or not the dad has the disorder, the mom isn’t as relevant. However, if you were talking about a son, it would be a different story.

Hope this helps :)

An 80-year-old client with a history of coronary artery disease is admitted to the hospital for observation after a fall. during
lara31 [8.8K]
Orthopneic

The client's paroxysmal dyspnea was probably caused by sleeping in bed with the legs at the level of the heart; this position increases venous return from dependent body areas, increasing the intravascular volume. Sitting up and leaning forward while keeping the legs dependent slows venous return as well as increases thoracic capacity. Although the contour position elevates the client's head, it does not place the legs in a dependent enough position to substantially decrease venous return. The recumbent position is contraindicated. Venous return increases when the lower extremities are at the level of the heart. Also, the pressure of the abdominal organs against the diaphragm decreases thoracic capacity. The Trendelenburg position is contraindicated. Venous return increases when the lower extremities are higher than the level of the heart. Also, the pressure of the abdominal organs against the diaphragm decreases thoracic capacity.
