Answer:

In cellular respiration, glycolysis is the first step in which glucose is oxidized into pyruvate. The electrons released by glucose during its oxidation is taken by NAD⁺ which gets reduced to NADH in glycolysis.

This NADH then again get oxidized by transferring the electron to oxygen through an electron transport chain present in mitochondria. This electron transfer is necessary for ATP generation for cell and regeneration of NAD⁺ that can again be used in glycolysis.

So when a chemical used that prevents NADH from being oxidized then no electron will be transferred to oxygen so oxygen will not be consumed and no ATP will be generated and also no NAD⁺ will be available for glycolysis.

Therefore all the metabolic process will stop and no consumption of oxygen will occur which will lead to the death of the seedling.

What is the process of protein synthesis
gulaghasi [49]
The process of protein synthesis involves two steps such as transcription and translation. In the process of transcription the encoded information in the DNA is transcripts or encoded into messenger RNA or mRNA inside the nucleus. This mRNA then comes out of the nucleus to the cytoplasm. In the process of translation the mRNA molecule attach with the ribosomes and tRNA molecules to synthesise the protein.

Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is an X-linked, recessive condition caused by mutation of the HPRT1 gene responsible for purine metabolism.
Elanso [62]

Answer:

B. The father did not contribute a sex chromosome to his daughter due to nondisjunction of the sex chromosomes. The daughter is XO and her only X chromosome came from her mother, who was a carrier.

A.The mother's X chromosomes failed to separate during meiosis, and the daughter inherited two X chromosomes with the Lesch-Nyhan mutation. The father contributed no sex chromosomes.

Explanation:

As seen in the question above, a little girl was diagnosed with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, which is an X-linked recessive condition caused by a mutation in the HPRT1 gene responsible for purine metabolism.

The little girl's parents do not have the syndrome, and no one in the little girl's paternal family presented this syndrome, however, we know that the maternal grandfather of the little girl's mother had the syndrome, which means that it was the mother's genetic material that contributed to the development of the syndrome in the little girl. This was because the little girl did not receive any X chromosomes from her father, but she inherited the two X chromosomes from her mother that coded for the Lesch-Nyhan mutation. This happened because the mother's X chromosome disjuction did not occur during meiosis I.

As shown above, the father did not contribute any sex chromosomes to his daughter, which means that the daughter is XO and her only X chromosome came from her mother, who was a carrier.
