I can’t help you with the first two questions, as I do not have a reference, but I can help you with the last two. Cystic fibrosis is a recessive trait. It is caused when specific sections of both copies of chromosome 8 are deleted, which in other words mean that it is not a sex-linked disorder because it isn’t inherited from the mother and father of the offspring.
No, all mutations are not bad. Only a small amount of mutations cause genetic disorder. Some in fact are good mutations. There is actually one mutation that is found roughly in 10% of Europeans which affects the CCR5 protein and it prevents HIV from entering the cell!

Explanation:
A ribonucleotide is very similar to a deoxyribonucleotide with the major difference being that they have a H instead of an OH in the 1’ carbon. Each ribonucleotide also has a phosphate molecule in their 5’ carbon like DNA. It is this phosphate that bonds with the 1’ carbon of the next monomer to form a phosphodiester bond through a condensation process – that releases a water molecule.
7669; since we are looking for the nearest 10’s we look at the last two digits, it’s 70, so all we need to do is go down 1 to have the “greatest whole number” ;)
