Which component of bone is responsible for its strength?

Biology

Lorico [155]3 years ago

<span>The answer is osteoid. It begins with unmineralized collagen fibers and ground substance. Later it becomes a calcified matrix. The matrix is mainly made of collagen and calcium ions.   When not well mineralized, osteoblasts proliferates hence the bone will not have the desired strength. This results to deformation of bone causing rickets</span>

A book that is 2 Newton (N) on earth would be 7N on the moon. True or False? Why?
Gnom [1K]

False

The gravitation on earth is 6times than that of moon

\\ \sf\longmapsto Force\propto Acceleration

Hence the object which weighs 2N on earth will weigh 2/6=0.33N on moon

Toemas’s syndrome is a autosomal dominant disease, homozygous lethal, seen at a frequency of 1 in 10,000 cats. Felines with this
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: 50% or 25% according to the genotype of the male cat.

Explanation:

The female cat is unaffected, and since this is an autosomal dominant diease, it means this cat does not have any affected alleles. Thereby,<u> its genotype is aa</u>. This is because dominant alleles show their effect even if the organisms only has one copy of the allele. The male cat is affected with this syndrome <u>so its genotype is either AA or Aa</u>. For this disease to manifest itself, only one affected allele is needed. Although both alleles can be affected so the individual can be homozygous dominant or heterozygous.

To find this we have to do a punnett square. Here, we use the gametes produced by each individual. <u>Gametes are sex cells, egg or sperm, which only have one allele of each gene.</u>

Assuming that the cross is between aa and AA, the gametes produced by "aa" are "a", and the gametes produced by "AA" are "A" So we are having a cross between an "a" gamete and a "A" gamete. 100% of the offspring will be Aa so it is a heterozygous, which will develope this syndrome. And, males have one Y chromosome and one X chromosomes, thereby the chances of having a male kitten is 50%. Then, to conclude, there is a 50% chances of having a male kitten with this syndrome.

And, assuming that the cross is between aa and Aa, the gametes produced by "Aa" are "A" but also "a" So we are habing a cross between an "a" gamete and "A" or "a" gamete (See picture) In this example, there is a 50% chances of having a kitten with the syndrome, because only one genotype produced (Aa) has the affected allele. And, as we said before, since there is a 50% chances of having a male kitten, we can said that there is a 25% chances of having an affected male. Because to calculate both probabilities so that they occur simultaneously, it is necessary to multiply them. That is, 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.25 x 100 = 25%.
