Answer:

The smallest number of copies of the dominant allele for polydactyly that could be found in a body cell of a person is one, since polydactyly is caused by an autosomal dominant  allele.

Two copies of the recessive cystic fibrosis (CF) allele are there in a body cell of a person suffering from CF, as it is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.

Explanation:

Polydactyly is a condition in which the individual has extra fingers or toes. It is an autosomal dominant condition caused by a dominant allele of the faulty gene. So to inherit the polydactyl condition, the offspring need to carry just one dominant allele from their parents.

If the dominant allele can be shown as P and the recessive allele can be shown as p ,then the offspring who is homozygous (PP) or heterozygous (Pp) for the dominant allele will develop Polydactyly.

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, which is caused by a faulty recessive allele on chromosome 7. This disorder is characterized by the buildup of thick, sticky mucus in the cell membranes of the body's organs and cause progressive damage, mainly to the respiratory system and digestive system. To inherit cystic fibrosis, the offspring has to carry two copies of the faulty gene, one from each of the parents.

If the recessive allele can be shown as 'f 'and the dominant allele can be shown as 'F ', then only the person who is homozygous 'ff' with the recessive allele will develop cystic fibrosis. The person who is homozygous with the dominant allele 'FF' will not develop cystic fibrosis (need two faulty alleles (ff) for the condition) and the person who is heterozygous 'Ff' will be a carrier of the disease, but will not develop cystic fibrosis and have no symptoms.

Describe the effects of NE and Ach on contractile force that you observed today. Given your knowledge of sympathetic and parasym
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

The answer is Norepinephrine.

Explanation:

Acetylcholine (Ach) and Norepinephrine (NE) are both chemical substances (neurotransmitters) released primarily by nerve cells and they affect different parts and systems of the body. Acetylcholine mostly targets the muscles and the brain and it is a part of the parasymphatetic nervous system whereas norepinephrine targets the whole body and has an effect that leads to the contraction of muscles and the increase of the heart rate. Norepinephrine is a part of the symphatetic nervous system.

Since the symphatetic nervous system is responsible for the crucial "fight-or-flight" response of our body, it has a more dramatic effect on the muscle contraction. Norepinephrine, being a part of the symphatetic nervous system, should result in a more drastic change in contractile force.

I hope this answer helps.

The hindbrain of the embryo develops into the pons, the medulla oblongata, part of the spinal cord, and what other structure?
Zepler [3.9K]

The hindbrain of the embryo develops into the pons, the medulla oblongata of the spinal cord and the cerebellum.

<h3>What is the cerebellum? </h3>

The cerebellum is a prominent part of the hindbrain and is located just above the brainstem. The cerebellum controls all the voluntary movements of the body and is also responsible for maintaining balance and posture.

The cerebellum is said to make up for 10% of the brain's volume but has more than 50% of the brain's total neurons.

The cerebellum is made up of two parts; a cerebral cortex, a layer made of folded tissue which contains most of the neurons and cerebral nuclei, an inner part which contains the neurons responsible for communication.

Therefore, the hindbrain develops into the pons, medulla oblongata and cerebellum.
