For a student to have inherited left handedness from parents who are both right handed, it means that the left-handed trait is recessive in both parents.

The pattern of inheritance of handedness can, thus, said to be simple dominant/recessive with the right handedness trait being dominant while the left handedness is recessive.

Let us assume that right-handedness is represented by the allele A and left-handedness by the allele a.

The two parents are heterozygous, hence, their genotypes each would be Aa.

                Aa   x   Aa

            AA   Aa   Aa   aa

From the cross, 3/4 of their children would be right handed (AA or Aa) while 1/4 would be left handed (aa). The student in question must have been from the 1/4.

Answer:

Nucleic acids are not essential for nutrition

Explanation:

Nucleic acids are a group of biomolecules that functions in the storage and transmission of genetic material within living organisms. DNA is one of the nucleic acids found in nature.

DNA is a storage molecule i.e stores genetic information. It does not store energy, hence, it doesn't serve the purpose of providing nutrient in a cell. Therefore, DNA will not be included on the nutrition labels for strawberries because they are not essential biomolecules for nutrition.

A 36 years old female came to see the doctor with the complaint of amenorrhea (absence of menstrual period) for past three month
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

1. galactorrhea or prolactinoma

2. hormonal imbalance (prolactin imbalance)

Explanation:

The given symptoms experienced by the patient are the absence of menstrual cycles, an increase in weight, some milky discharge from her left breast, and abnormal facial hairs. The pregnancy tests show she is not pregnant and she also does not experience cold intolerance, dry skin, depression, fatigue or hot flushes.

All these suggest that there is a hormonal imbalance in her and due to producing a white substance from the breast it can get that there is too much production of prolactin, which suppresses the effect of estrogen, which is producing by the pituitary gland.

Galactorrhea or prolactinoma are two disorders that affect the production of prolactin that cause milky discharge, it can be caused by overuse of contraceptives or underlying conditions.
