c. 0% because its the women who transmits the disorder.
Explanation:
PKU allele is an autosomal recessive disorder which is caused by mutations in both alleles of gene for phenylalanine hydroxylase. Alleles are either dominant or recessive. When two alleles are identical means that mother and father cells are homoozygous recessive. They both are combining the same alleles causing it to have a higher chance of genetic disorder.
5. It is difficult to diagnose genetic conditions because they are rarely seen and once problems start presenting themselves not only would a diagnosis need to be made. But to prove it you would have to take blood from both parents to see why they together could produce genetic conditions.
6) Down syndrome occurs when you get a smaller number of chromosomes you are supposed to inherit from each parent during conception.
7) a silent mutation is a change in DNA but does not changes the encoded and has no phenotypic effect therefore the genetic sequence is not changed
c . 10000 its right i took the quiz
Answer:
The resulting cells will not receive the correct number of chromosomes in the gametes, a condition known as aneuploidy.
Explanation:
Formation of functional microtubule spindle fibers and their attachment to kinetochores of chromosomes is required to ensure their alignment st the cell's equator during metaphase. During anaphase, shortening of these microtubules pulls the chromosomes to the opposite poles. These events ensure the distribution of the correct number of chromosomes among the daughter cells. The presence of defective microtubules would not allow proper distribution of chromosomes to the daughter cells and would result in the presence of an abnormal number of chromosomes (aneuploidy).
