Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Let the disorder be represented by the allele a.
Since the disease is an autosomal recessive one, affected individuals will have the genotype aa and normal individuals will have the genotype Aa or AA.
Since the four adults are carriers, their genotypes would be Aa.
Aa x Aa
Progeny: AA 2Aa aa
Probability of being affected = 1/4
Probability of being a carrier = 1/2
Probability of not being affected = 3/4
(a) The chance that the child second child of Mary and Frank will have alkaptonuria = 1/2
(b) The chance that the third child of Sara and James will be free of the condition = 3/4
(c)
(d) If someone has no family history of the disorder, their genotype would be AA.
AA x aa
4 Aa
<em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history </em>= 0
(e)
(f) <em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history</em> = 0
Pre-frontal Cortex (PFC)
The PFC is often one of the last regions of the cerebral cortex to fully develop. It is the area of the brain most associated with executive function, logic, reason, and some anticipation of consequences.
Research estimates that most females' PFC is nearly fully developed by ages 16-21; however, males lag in this development of their PFC by an average of ages 19-24.
Thus, before legal age (18), minors (males > females) are more apt to partake in risk-taking behaviors.
