1. What percentage of puppies would have the same genotype as the parents, Ww?

wolverine [178]

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene with two alleles W and w in puppies. According to the question, the genotype of the parent organisms are Ww. In a cross between the two parents i.e. Ww × Ww, the following gametes will be produced by each parent: W and w.

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following genotype of offsprings will be produced: WW, Ww, Ww, ww. Hence, based on this question, the percentage of puppies that would have the same genotype as the parents, Ww are 1/2 × 100% = 50%.

NISA [10]

Answer:

Proteinuria occurs when the filtration membrane becomes leaky, allowing proteins to cross. This impacts the blood colloid osmotic pressure by decreasing the osmolarity gradient between the blood and filtrate, thereby reducing the strength of this pressure.

Explanation:

Proteinuria is the medical term that describes the presence of proteins in the urine. Proteins, in normal conditions, are not capable of filtrating through the membrane but, in the presence of a disease, this is possible.

Proteins are responsible for the colloid osmotic pressure in the blood vessels, so when proteins get filtered, this pressure decreases and so does the osmolarity gradient between the blood and filtrate. The decrease in osmolarity gradient also produces a decrease of the colloid osmotic pressure because the strength of the pressure is as big as the gradient between the two compartments.
