Why would it be wise for a woman carrying the hemophilia gene to keep her son from being circumcised?

Biology
1 answer:
xenn [34]3 years ago

Answer:

Because the probability of hemophilia would be 1:4

Explanation:

Hemophilia is a disease that comes with a sex chromosome (pair 46).

It is a recessive allele associated with chromosome X, women have two X chromosomes they can carry it, but they don't have it because they have another dominand allele non-hemophilic.

If you draw a Punnet square with a non-hemophilic father and a carrying mother, you'll found you have 1:4 chances of having a baby boy with hemophilia.

Carrying mother = X(H)X(h)

Father = X(H) Y

Which best describes the cycle that ensures fresh water, which is vital for carrying out metabolic processes, is available?
max2010maxim [7]

Answer: B.  evaporation, condensation, precipitation

Explanation:

The cycle that ensures that fresh water is available is called the Hydrological cycle and it involves several key processes.

As it is a cycle, none of the processes can be considered first but if any could, it would be evaporation. This is when water on the surface is heated and becomes water vapor (gas) and rises towards the atmosphere.

Condensation occurs as the water vapor rises because the further up you go, the colder it gets. These water vapor particles will thus condense and clump together to form clouds.

These clouds keep getting larger until they are too heavy to be carried by the atmosphere in which case they fall to the ground as rain the process known as precipitation.

Explain how the Naked DNA exploits vector's DNA ability to make a vaccine.
mixer [17]

Answer:

DNA vaccines consist of DNA vectors or plasmids (small double-stranded DNA rings originally derived from bacteria, but unable to cause infection) into which the genes encoding one or more immunizing proteins of the infectious agent have been inserted causing the disease to be prevented.

Explanation:

Vectors are the functional unit of naked DNA vaccines. Genes that encode the proteins of interest and are of bacterial origin are inserted into these vectors. Bacterial plasmids are circular DNA molecules that self-replicate extrachromosomally in bacteria. The genes encoded in these plasmids are under the control of promoters, almost always of viral origin. When a plasmid is introduced into the cell it translocates to the nucleus, where transcription of the transgene begins; the transcripts are then taken to the cytoplasm and translated there. The newly synthesized proteins are degraded in the proteasome to 8-10 amino acid peptides, which are transported to the endoplasmic reticulum. Peptides of high affinity with their respective MHC I molecule stabilize and enter the secretory pathway, thus reaching the cell surface, where they are coupled with the T-lymphocyte receptor (TcR) present on the surface of T lymphocytes cytotoxic drugs (CD8 +) to induce their activation.
