Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is an X-linked, recessive condition caused by mutation of the HPRT1 gene responsible for purine metabolism.
Elanso [62]

Answer:

B. The father did not contribute a sex chromosome to his daughter due to nondisjunction of the sex chromosomes. The daughter is XO and her only X chromosome came from her mother, who was a carrier.

A.The mother's X chromosomes failed to separate during meiosis, and the daughter inherited two X chromosomes with the Lesch-Nyhan mutation. The father contributed no sex chromosomes.

Explanation:

As seen in the question above, a little girl was diagnosed with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, which is an X-linked recessive condition caused by a mutation in the HPRT1 gene responsible for purine metabolism.

The little girl's parents do not have the syndrome, and no one in the little girl's paternal family presented this syndrome, however, we know that the maternal grandfather of the little girl's mother had the syndrome, which means that it was the mother's genetic material that contributed to the development of the syndrome in the little girl. This was because the little girl did not receive any X chromosomes from her father, but she inherited the two X chromosomes from her mother that coded for the Lesch-Nyhan mutation. This happened because the mother's X chromosome disjuction did not occur during meiosis I.

As shown above, the father did not contribute any sex chromosomes to his daughter, which means that the daughter is XO and her only X chromosome came from her mother, who was a carrier.

How does society affect science? Check all that
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is probably A: The needs of society help determine the types of research conducted.  For example, people are more likely to research ebola when there is an outbreak, right?  B isn't true: for example, society doesn't let scientists experiment on unwilling humans!  C is probably true, but it is more specific than A--that is, C only applies in certain cases.  Society ALWAYS applies to science.  D isn't correct either: society encourages research for the greater good,

A scientist could best determine which ion (F-, Cl-, Br-, or I-) produced the greatest electrical potential in the Experiment by
Serggg [28]

Answer:

a solution of each sodium salt at the same concentration

Explanation:

If a scientist wishes to study the electrical potential that develops between ice  and the sodium salts solution of the ions (F-, Cl-, Br-, or I-) in order to determine which ion produced the greatest electrical potential; he must compare the electrical potential that develops between ice and a solution of each sodium salt at the same concentration.

This means that conclusions can not be reached unless the sodium salt of each ion at the same concentration is compared so as to ensure consistence in the results of the study.
