Answer:

3/4

Explanation:

In humans, a widow's peak hairline is dominant while a straight hairline is recessive.

Tom and Sue both have a widow's peak but their son Joe has a straight hairline.

For Joe to have a straight haircut which is inherited in the recessive condition, that means both parent each has a recessive allele copy for this trailer making them heterozygotes for the trait.

If the widow's peak allele is W (genotype for heterozygote would be Ww)

A cross between these two heterozygotes gives

Ww x Ww

WW Ww Ww ww

3/4 widow's peak 1/4 straight hair line

The genetic probability of that child having a widow's peak hairline is 3/4...

In Texas, a man showed up at a medical facility claiming that he felt drunk when he had not ingested any alcohol. Indeed his blo
fredd [130]

Answer:

c. He might have recently had a round of antibiotics that killed the bacteria that usually live in his gut and allowed a yeast species to overgrow. Put him on probiotics and a low carb diet for a week and recheck his blood alcohol.  

Explanation:

This patient may have taken some antibiotics to contain any infection he was having. Antibiotics are medicines with a high power against bacteria. These medications can only be taken with medical supervision because they can kill all bacteria in the body and our gut has beneficial bacteria that help us during digestion.  Probably the antibiotic that the man took killed all the bacteria present in his gut and this allowed for a proliferation of yeast that started an alcoholic fermentation caused the sensation of being alcoholized to the man.

The ideal thing to do with this patient is to prescribe probiotics and put him on a low-carb diet for a week and recheck the blood alcohol.

What is mRNA?
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Messenger RNA is a type of RNA that is necessary for protein production. In cells, mRNA uses the information in genes to create a blueprint for making proteins. Once cells finish making a protein, they quickly break down the mRNA. mRNA from vaccines does not enter the nucleus and does not alter DNA.

So the answer will be C or A
