C) fragile-X syndrome
D) PKU
Solution
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a kind of genetic disorder in which body starts producing and building up phenylalanine amino acid. PKU arises when the Phenylalanine hydroxylase enzyme is not synthesized due to a genetic defect thereby affecting creation of neurotransmitters such as epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine. Some of the symptoms of this disorder are hyperactivity, seizures, eczema, tremors etc. PKU is not connected with language development issues and hence correct option is D
Answer:
converted into fat and stored in adipose tissue
Explanation:
When protein is taken in excess amount, because it cannot be stored in the body, it can be broken down to amino acids, which is further used as carbon skeletons to synthesize fats, which is then further stored in the adipose tissues.
When the body is not receiving enough calories from other nutrient sources like carbohydrates and fats, the available protein is the used as energy to meet the body's energy demands, by converting it to fat.

Answer:
The correct answer is - 75% or 3/4.
Explanation:
In the given question, there is a cross between III-6 and III-7 that produced two double eyes monsters and expected one more. As given in the image that the A or single eye is dominant over the a or double eye then both parents must be heterozygous as they produced double eye offspring (aa) and they do have only one eye.
then chances of single eye offspring would be -
cross: Aa and Aa
gametes: A, a and A, a
Punnett square:
A a
A AA Aa
a Aa aa
so there are 75% chances to have a single eye and 25% chances for a double eye.
