Explanation:
CFTR is a short form of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein which is caused by a recessive mutation in this protein. This mutation results in the accumulation of mucus in secretory organs.
As the disease is a recessive disease, for the mutant phenotype to expressed both copies of the allele required to be recessive.
The mother is negative for the CFTR. Hence, she will not transfer the mutant allele to her child So, the child would have a wild-type phenotype even if the father having two copies of recessive allele.
Thus, the correct answer is - option C.
The olfactory cortex (nucus) of the temporal lobe is where the nerve fibers of the olfactory bulb projects directly. This cortex is where you get the smell sensation before determining what the smell actually is. The olfactory cortex is located on the medial aspect of the temporal lobe, particularly in the uncus or the piriform lobe. It is also called the Rhinoencephalon or the nose brain.
