List and explain genetic abnormalities​

Biology
1 answer:
lidiya [134]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Genes are the building blocks of heredity. They are passed from parent to child. They hold DNA, the instructions for making proteins. Proteins do most of the work in cells. They move molecules from one place to another, build structures, break down toxins, and do many other maintenance jobs.

Sometimes there is a mutation, a change in a gene or genes. The mutation changes the gene's instructions for making a protein, so the protein does not work properly or is missing entirely. This can cause a medical condition called a genetic disorder.

You can inherit a gene mutation from one or both parents. A mutation can also happen during your lifetime.

There are three types of genetic disorders:

   Single-gene disorders, where a mutation affects one gene. Sickle cell anemia is an example.

   Chromosomal disorders, where chromosomes (or parts of chromosomes) are missing or changed. Chromosomes are the structures that hold our genes. Down syndrome is a chromosomal disorder.

   Complex disorders, where there are mutations in two or more genes. Often your lifestyle and environment also play a role. Colon cancer is an example.

Explanation: I have no clue if this is correct but I tried lol

Ba-17 why are low head dams dangerous to small boats and paddle craft
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Low-head dams are dangerous structures that basically extend from one side of a riverbank to the other. Low-head dams block the water way partially and the water moving over the dam produces a strong circular current at the lower part of the dam. Low-head dams are dangerous to small boats and paddle craft because the strong circular current below the dam can trap small boats and paddle craft and pull them under the dam.

Testa,  Protect, Desiccation, Feezer, Two, Cotyledons, Embryo , Plumule, Radicle

Explanation:

Seed germination is defined as the process of growing of a seed that involves causing a seed to sprout.

There are three primary parts seeds embryo, endosperm and seed coat. The outer covering of seed is called Testa which is seed coat that protects the seed from desiccation and external harmfull condition of environment.

The seed are stored in freezer that keeps it dry and cool. A temperature between 32° and 41°F is ideal for storing seeds.

Seeds are dvided into two halves called cotyledons. The new plant germinating is called an embryo which has two parts named plumule and radicle. Plumule grows into stem while radicle grow sinto root under favuorable conditions.

Match the following strand of DNA with its complementary strand: C T T G A A C T G T A
Annette [7]

Answer: C

Explanation:

Hi, the answer to this problem is C.

This is because it is asking for the complementary strand.

Basically, the nucleotide A goes with T, and C goes with G, and both vise versa.

Since this is DNA, A goes with T.

So you would match it up. For the first one, we have C. That means for the first letter of the correct answer, it should be G. Do this until you get through the whole sequence, and eventually, you will get the answer C.

Hope this helps!
