The hereditary form of hypertension is detected when the adrenal gland produces too much aldosterone.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Hypertension is an important risk factor for several cardiovascular disease. If prolonged it damages the blood vessels causing malfunctioning of the heart, kidneys and brain. Hypertension can be caused due to various genetic or environmental factors.
There are cases where familial hypertension are detected. This is caused due to the mutation in a single gene which is passed on to the generations where even in young age the children are seen affected with hypertension.
This in medical terms is termed as familial hyperaldosteronism type II. This is occurred due to the mutation in CLCN2 gene. It tends to produce too much of aldosterone hormone which causes high blood pressure.
Answer:
a, 8
b, 3
Explanation:
If the pedigree you are referring to is the one that is attached then the answer would be:
A pedigree shows how a trait is passed on throughout generations. Like it says in the question, the squares represent males. If the square isn't shaded in, then that means they are unaffected by the trait or normal. If it is shaded, they are affected.
All you need to do for the first question is count the number of squares you see in the whole pedigree. In this case, there are 8.
The second one is asking how many are affected, or have hemophilia. You need to count the number of squares that are shaded in. In the pedigree, we see 3.
The systems affected when someone does not take their seasonal allergy medication are the muscular system, immune system, circulatory system, and the respiratory system. Therefore, all of them are correct.
Answer:
The correct answer is a acyl-carnitine readily cross the mitochondrial inner membrane but the acyl CoA do not.
Explanation:
Fatty acids are activated to form fatty acyl CoA by the help of ATP and CoA SH.But the so formed Acyl CoA cannot cross or pass the inner mitochondrial membrane to enter the mitochondrial matrix to initiate beta oxidation of fatty acid.
To overcome this problem fatty acyl CoA is converted to acyl carnitine and the so formed acyl carnitine readily crosses the inner mitochondrial membrane and enters the mitochondrial matrix.
