Answer:

In skeletal muscles with low glycogen, glucose will be stored as muscles glycogen.

Skeletal muscles are unable to release glucose because muscles lack glucose 6 phosphatase. Also, muscles glycogen is mainly a local energy substrate for exercise, rather than an energy source to maintain glucose concentration during fasting.

What type of syndrome is this Karyotype
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Patau's syndrome

Explanation:

Patau's syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by one additional chromosome 13, and therefore it is an aneuploidy caused by an extra chromosome (i.e., a trisomy). Individuals with Patau's syndrome have 47 chromosomes instead of 46 in some or all their somatic cells. This syndrome seriously affects fetal development, usually resulting in miscarriage, stillbirth or in neonatal death. The incidence of this syndrome is around 1/5,000 births.

How does the recesive sickle-cell allele stay in the gene pool
Zina [86]

Answer:

Because natural selection selects for it. Thus it persists.

Explanation:

You have to understand heterozygote advantage. Basically, it's where heterozygotes have an advantage over homozygotes. In the case of sickle cell disease, heterozygotes have an advantage, and natural selection favors whatever is advantageous. Thus, because heterozygotes each have one recessive sickle-cell allele, as natural selection favors the heterozygotes, the recessive sickle-cell allele persists and remains in the gene pool.
