The reliability of the information can be described as good because it is based on "<span>multiple research papers done by scientists at veterinary schools". There are two main points that make of the information a reliable one. Firstly, the researches were carried by scientists at veterinary schools, in other others, experts in the matter. And secondly, the information was based in multiple, not just one or a few, research papers that in order to be published are revised and only then accepted for publication. </span>
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
<em>The DNA of eukaryotic organisms being present in the nucleus while the protein-synthesizing organelle, the ribosome being present in the cytoplasm poses a spatial problem. It means that transcribed DNAs (messenger RNA) in the nucleus would have to somehow be transported to the ribosome in order for the cell to successfully synthesize proteins.</em>
The problem of transporting the messenger RNA is solved by two features of the cell:
- The presence of pores in the nuclear envelop
- The presence of transport proteins in the nucleus
<u>The mRNA binds to the transport proteins to form mRNA-protein complexes and is transported through the nuclear pores, often with the assistance of ATP. </u>
Answer: Although both are X-linked recessive conditions, and therefore more likely in males, with the single X-chromosome. The recessive allele in colour blindness occurs at a higher frequency in the population and is a mild condition. Thus colour blindness does occur to a lesser extent in females because it needs the double recessive condition. DMD is a severe, disabling condition with a limited lifespan, and recessive allele frequency much lower, so the double recessive condition in females is very rare.
Explanation: DMD is an X-linked recessive, “nearly always in males” suggest that it also occurs due to a new mutation or some rare condition e.g. double recessive from an affected father and carrier mother, or inactivation of the normal gene in a heterozygote. It is also found that the defective allele is not completely recessive and that female carriers may exhibit mild to moderate effects.
colour blindness is polygenic, although the genes are all X-linked. It is more common in males than females. Females can carry two recessive alleles and so express the phenotype, but this is uncommon because the frequency of the recessive gene is low.
There are similarities in that both are X-linked recessives, therefore commonly expressed in males, who only have one X chromosome. The gene frequency of the colour blindness recessive is much higher than that of DMD, so the double recessive condition, which affects females, is more likely to be seen with colour blindness. In addition, DMD is a severe condition associated with disability and limited lifespan, which reduces the probability of mating between an affected male and carrier female
