Huntington Disease is an autosomal recessive condition. Which percentage
Ksju [112]

Answer:

The options to this question are unclear but the answer is: Hh, Hh, hh, hh i.e Hh (50%), hh (50%).

Explanation:

This question involves a single Gene coding for the possession or not of Huntington's disease in humans. The disease is said to be an autosomal recessive condition i.e. it only happens in a recessive state (hh).

According to this question, when a female with Huntington disease (hh) mates with a male that is heterozygous (Hh) for the Huntington trait, the following gametes will be produced by each parent.

hh - h and h

Hh - H and h

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following genotypic combination of offsprings will be produced.

Hh, Hh, hh and hh

Hh = 50%

hh = 50%

Why was it necessary to complete the gram stain in order to determine the bacterial species infecting anna?
nasty-shy [4]
Gram negative and Gram positive refers to if bacteria retain the Gram Stain or not. Gram positive do. Gram negative do not. Gram positive bacteria will appear purple/blueish after staining. <span>It is important because whether a bacteria is Gram positive or negative helps determine the species, characteristics of disease, and the best antibiotics to use in treatment. </span>

Many soil-dwelling bacteria produce molecules that can be naturally synthesized and kill other species of bacteria. What are these bacteria-killing molecules called antibiotics

Antibiotics are effective pills which can be usually safe. Although they are very helpful in fighting disease,  antibiotics can actually be harmful. Important Facts About Antibiotic Safety: Antibiotics can cause side effects such as allergic reactions and severe and potentially life-threatening diarrhea caused by the bacterium Clostridium difficile (C. diff).

Antibiotics can also interfere with other medications you may be taking. Antibiotic side effects account for nearly one-fifth of  emergency room visits. These conditions are the most common reasons for emergency room visits for children under the age of 18. Taking antibiotics you don't need unnecessarily exposes you  to the drug's side effects and denies you the benefits.

Multiply 5730 years by 2 since two half-lives have gone by for carbon.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The half-life of a radioactive isotope depicts the measure of time that it takes half of the isotope in an example decay. On account of radiocarbon dating, the half-existence of carbon 14 is 5,730 years  

The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years.  

In this manner, after  

1 half-life there is 50 % = 1/2 of the first amount left.  

2 half-lives there is 25 % = 1/4 of the first amount left.  

25% is two half-lives.  

Every 50% of life requires 5730 years.  

So two half-lives require 2 × 5730
