Answer:

ZZ species will take more number of crosses to produce a recessive offspring.

Explanation:

Here Z seems to be the dominant allele.  A species having ZZ or homozygous dominant genotype shall not express the recessive phenotype until unless it has both recessive allele and this is not possible as of now or is dependent on the genotype of mating species and the number of generations of development.

If ZZ mates with WW, the offspring in F1 generation will have genotype ZW

However, if the offspring in the F1 generation are crossed then in next generation we could see organism with recessive phenotype i,e WW

ZW*ZW

ZZ, ZW, ZW, WW

While in case of organism having ZW type genotype, recessive phenotype will occur in the first generation cross with the ZW.

A client whose parkinson's disease is being treated with tolcapone should concurrently take what drug?
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The correct answer would be levodopa/carbidopa.

Tolcapone is a drug used as an adjunct to levodopa/carbidopa combination medication.

These drugs are used to treat the symptoms of Parkinson's disease.

Tolcapone is used to inhibit enzyme COMT (catechol-O-methyl transferase).

In the brain, levodopa is converted into dopamine which helps in controlling the movement.

Carbidopa helps in preventing the breakdown of levodopa in the blood which allows more levodopa to enter the brain. In addition, it helps in reducing the side-effects associated with levodopa such as vomiting, nausea et cetera.
