First pass metabolism of a drug is said to occur when the concentration of a drug that is administered orally is significantly reduced before it reaches the systemic circulation.
First pass metabolism usually occur in the liver.
The routes of drug administration that avoid complete first pass metabolism are: sublingual, transdermal, rectal and inhalation.
Answer:
Explanation:
<em>Let the ability to break down the red color in beets be represented by the allele </em><em>B</em><em>. The inability would be represented by the allele </em><em>b</em><em>.</em>
A nonsecretor's genotype would be BB or Bb while a secretor's genotype would be bb.
A nonsecretor woman with a secretor father would be a carrier with genotype Bb. A nonsecretor man who in a previous marriage had a secretor daughter would also be a carrier with genotype Bb. If the two marries:
<em>Bb x Bb</em>
<em> BB 2Bb bb</em>
1.
(a) probability of their first child will be a secretor girl = probability of having a girl and being a secretor.
Probability of having a girl = 1/2
Probability of being a secretor = 1/4
<em>probability of their first child will be a secretor girl</em> = 1/2 x 1/4 = 1/8
(b) Probability of their first child being a nonsecretor girl = probability of having a girl and being a nonsecretor.
Probability of having a girl = 1/2
Probability of being a nonsecretor = 3/4
<em>Probability of their first child being a nonsecretor girl = probability of having a girl and being a nonsecretor</em> = 1/2 x 3/4 = 3/8
2. <em>Probability that their first two children will be nonsecretors of either sex = probability of their first being a nonsecretor and of either sex and probability of their second being a nonsecretor and of either sex.</em>
= 3/4 x 3/4 = 9/16
