The photos shown below illustrate a case of synpolydactyly, a genetic abnormality characterized by two phenotypes: partially or

completely duplicated fingers or toes, and webbing between fingers or toes. The same mutations that give rise to the human phenotype also give rise to a similar phenotype in mice. In which family of genes do you think these mutations occur?

Answer:

The correct answer is - Hox gene.

Explanation:

Synpolydactyly is a joint presentation of syndactyly is the condition of the partially or completely duplicated fingers or toes and weblike development in between toes and fingers.

This takes place due to the Gene of HOX family that has mutated to rise this condition in the individual. The gene that is responsible for this genetic condition is the mutation in the D13 gene.

The correct answer is - Hox gene

Suppose a drug is developed that blocks K+ leakage channels. The drug prevents ions from passing through those channels. If this
Sav [38]

Answer: 1. The resting membrane potential would become less negative (more positive).

Explanation:

Resting membrane potential is a voltage carried by a resting (non-signaling) neuron, or called as resting potential, across its membrane.  The resting potential is determined by ion concentration gradients across the membrane, and the permeability of the membrane to each ion form.  

In a resting brain, there are gradients of concentration across the Na+ and K+ membranes. Forces shift their gradients down through channels, resulting in a separation of charges that provides the potential for rest. The membrane is much more permeable to K+ than to Na+, so the resting potential is similar to K+'s potential for equilibrium.

Hence, the correct option is 1. The resting membrane potential would become less negative (more positive).
