1. The percent probability that the first child of the couple will have Huntington's disease is 50%
2. The percent probability that four of the seven children will have Huntington's disease is 6.25%
<h3>Genetical probabilities</h3>
The disease is autosomal dominant. Only one dominant allele is needed for the disease to be manifested.
The husband is Hh and the wife is hh.
Hh x hh
Hh Hh hh hh
Hh (affected) = 1/2
hh (unaffected) = 1/2
1. Probability that the first child of this couple will have Huntington's disease is the same as the probability of having the disease. Thus, it is 1/2 (50%)
2. Probability that four of the seven children will have Huntington's disease is the same as the probability of having the disease in 4 places.
1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/16 or 6.25%

<span>Let's consider a scenario in which the resting membrane potential changes from −70 mV to +70 mV, but the concentrations of all ions in the intracellular and extracellular fluids are unchanged. Predict how this change in membrane potential affects the movement of Na+. The electrical gradient for Na+ would tend to move Na+ Outside the cell (extracellular) while the chemical gradient for Na+ would tend to move Na+ Inside the cell (intracellular).
The electrical gradient is defined as the + goes to the - and the - goes to the +
Na + has a positive charge, but there's more positive charge inside the cell than outside (due to potassium), therefore, Na+ goes extracellular (out)
The concentration gradient considers that the ion will go from the most concentrated to at least concentrated by passive diffusion so no trans-membrane proteins in the game attention.Na + is very concentrated in extracellular and few intracellular, therefore, it tends to go intracellular (in).</span>
Answer choice C) that's the definition of homeostasis
I would say D. Osteoarthritis, presbyopia
<span> Mitosis involves Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase.
So you have
13 + 12 + 3 + 2 = 30 cells in mitosis
and
90 + 30 = 120 cells in total
Therefore your ratio of cells in mitosis to total cells is 30 / 120 = 1 / 4. That means mitosis should take up roughly 1/4 of the total cell cycle length. Since the completely cycle takes 24 hours, mitosis would then take (1/4)*24 = 6 hours</span>
