Biology
1 answer:
wel3 years ago
6 0

Answer: Please refer to:

ACR (Albumin to Creatinine Ratio) and GFR (glomerular filtration rate).

GFR is a measure of kidney function and is performed through a blood test. Your GFR will determine what stage of kidney disease you have – there are 5 stages

Explanation:

Not sure but hope it helps.

What is the difference between reduced transmission and incomplete penetrance?
Ket [755]

Answer:

While penetrance is a quantitative estimate, reduced expressivity (transmission) is a qualitative estimate.

Explanation:

<u>Penetration </u>

Some individuals who carry the deleterious allele (for example, in an autosomal dominant disease) do not show the expected phenotype: in that case we say that the penetrance is incomplete. This is the case in which the number of individuals presenting an abnormal phenotype is less than the number of individuals carrying the mutation causing this phenotype. Penetrance is a quantitative estimate.

For example, in the case of neurofibromatosis type I, its penetration is estimated to be 80% although it is often difficult to detect mild variants of the disease. Therefore, in these cases it would be useful to be able to detect the different mutations in the affected families and thus establish more precisely the value of their penetrance.

<u>Expressiveness  (transmission)</u>

The observed phenotype can be more or less severe among the different affected individuals. In this case it is said that the deleterious allele has a variable expressiveness. Expressiveness is a qualitative estimate.

In the case of Marfan syndrome, for the same mutation present in a family, some individuals show a severe form of the disease that affects the cardiovascular, ocular and skeletal system while others show only a high height and arachnodactyly, without eye problems or of aortic aneurysm.

Reduced penetrance and incomplete expressivity are mainly described in autosomal dominant diseases.

Do not confuse an isolated case due to poor penetrance with a sporadic case due to the appearance of a mutation.

The reason animals need a continuous supply of oxygen jis to _______________________. make carbon dioxide dispose of carbon diox
Alisiya [41]

The reason animals need a continuous supply of oxygen is to<u> Obtain energy from their food.</u>

<u></u>

The most fundamental reason why animals need a non-stop delivery of oxygen is without it animals can't achieve sufficient power from their meals.

Cells require a steady delivery of power to generate and preserve the biological order that keeps them alive. This electricity is derived from the chemical bond energy in food molecules, which thereby function as fuel for cells.

The animal's metabolism converts oxygen into strength. All through this system, a waste gas called carbon dioxide is produced. To remove it, the carbon dioxide is carried lower back to the lungs, where its miles are collected and exhaled.

Describe HOW and WHY does air pressure change with altitude in the<br> atmosphere? *
Korolek [52]
Pressure with Height: pressure decreases with increasing altitude. The pressure at any level in the atmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a similar surface at lower levels.
