Answer: The genotype of the generation resulting from the given P ( parental generation) is Aa that is all offsprings in the first generation will be heterozygous dominant.
The genotype of the parents is AA and aa and the gametes produced by these parents are A and a respectively.
When these gametes fuse, they result in the offsprings with genotype Aa. This represents a dominant phenotype due to the presence of dominant gene ( a gene that masks the expression of recessive gene and expresses itself), which is A in this case.
Answer:
Total cholesterol score is 199
199 is high cholesterol score especially as it very close to 200. The patient should adopt diets that do not include high cholesterol food
Explanation:
a. Firstly, we want to calculate the patient’s total cholesterol score.
To get this, we use a mathematical approach.
Mathematically;
the total cholesterol score = HDL + TDL + Triglyceride = 62 + 77 + 60 = 199
The patient’s total cholesterol score is 199
b. As a doctor, I will advice the patient on the status of these measurements. Using the scale of cholesterol level, a measurement of total cholesterol = 200 represents a high cholesterol level. Since 199 is very close to 200, the patient is at a risk of high cholesterol levels and thus needs a dietary change.
