8. You are a genetic counselor. One of your clients, Linda, had a boy with a genetic defect that may have a high recurrence risk

, meaning her subsequent pregnancies has a high chance of being affected by the same defect. You offered genetic testing of Linda, her husband, and their son to find out more about their disease, to which everyone agreed. The result showed that neither Linda nor her husband carry the mutation, while the boy inherited the mutation on a paternal chromosome that did not come from Linda's husband. In other words, the boy's biological father is someone else, who is unaware that he carries the mutation. You suspect that Linda nor her husband are aware of this non-paternity. How would you disclose the results of this genetic analysis to Linda and her family

I think that is important to speak with the mother first. It should be told her about the non-paternity before the man, in order to respect her privacy and to give her a chance to tell husband by herself.

It is important to be aware, that a problem between man and wife might occur, but duty of genetic counselor is to provide full information to all the people involved.

B) Explain how ATP and ADP act as allosteric regulators of enzymes that are responsible for ATP production, and how that is an e
suter [353]

Answer: B)

B) ADP can act as an allosteric activator by slowing the breakdown of fuel molecules if sufficient energy is in the cell. APT can act as an inhibitor by storing resources in more complex molecules. That is an example of feedback inhibitor because when the end product of the substrate is finished, it can bind to the allosteric site, which will result in the enzymes active site no longer being able to bind with the new substrates. And that is responsible for ATP production because That “stops” the enzyme from making more than necessary and thus wasting chemical resources.

C) Feedback inhibition is a method of metabolic control in which the need of the product of a metabolic that way acts as an inhibitor of an enzyme within that pathway. The APT generating path is an example of feedback inhibition because it controls the amount needed of the product and acts as an inhibitor of the enzyme in the anabolic  pathway.

Answer:

1. Wind moves horizontally because of differences in air pressure. These differences in air pressure are a result of __differential______ heating of earth’s atmosphere from the _sun____.

2:This pressure moves from an area of __high___pressure to an area of__low___ pressure, creating the wind.

Explanation:

The sun rays ‘hit’ the earth's surface with increased obliquity with increasing latitude. In addition, the density of the sun rays per sq meter also decreases with increasing latitude. This is all due to the spherical nature of the earth.

However, there are also local differences that cause the earth's surface to heat differentially such as terrain and cloud cover, etc. This creates regions of warmer air mass (low-pressure zones) and cooler air mass(high-pressure zones). These differences cause winds because of air  rushes from high to low-pressure zones due to differences in air masses’ temperature-related densities.
