Emily is a 25-year-old asian female. emily is complaining of frequent headaches over the past 3 weeks. emily is taking birth con
Tomtit [17]
Emily's symptoms include frequent headaches, light sensitivity, nausea and vomiting. The risk factors are her smoking habit and the birth control pills that she is currently taking. A possible diagnosis could be an acute condition which is caused by a serious interaction between her smoking activity and her birth control pills. It has been proven that women who smoke while on contraceptive therapy have an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. This is because nicotine increases heart rate and blood pressure, while certain hormones present in some birth control pills (such as estrogen) increase the tension on blood vessels. For further diagnosis, the healthcare professional should check Emily's blood pressure and ask her family history on blood clots, heart problems, or stroke cases.

If you cross two organisms that are heterozygous for a trait, what percent of
brilliants [131]

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

Here's an example: two chickens have the phenotype of white feathers and brown feathers. What percentage of the chicks will have the recessive color? First, you have to see the parents' phenotypes. Draw a punnet square. Put one of the parent's phenotypes (w and B) on the top, and the other parent's (w and B) on the right side going down. Whichever trait is dominant (brown) MUST be capitalized. Then, cross the two parents. first box on the top left would read 'ww.' The one below it is 'Bw' (put the dominant first). The right top is 'Bw' and the one below it is 'BB'. So if there were 4 offspring, these would be their genotypes: 'ww', 'Bw', 'Bw', and 'BB'. The only offspring that would have the recessive trait is the 'ww' child, because dominant overpowers recessive. So 25% would have the recessive trait and 75% would have the dominant trait.

Sholpan [36]

Jason carry one allele for not having cyctic fibrosis and one allele for having cyctic fibrosis therefore he is heterozygous for the cystic fibrosis gene.

Jason does not have cystic fibrosis and it is his phenotype (physical expression of the gene) for the trait.

Jason's genotype (set of genes in its DNA) for the cystic fibrosis gene is Ff because he is heterozygous for the gene.
