Answer:
b. Alveolar dead space
Explanation:
Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that the statement that would best indicate that the nurse understands the condition would be "Alveolar dead space". This is because, this is the name of the condition being described by the pulmonologist. It is the sum of the volumes of the alveoli that are ventilated but not perfused due to almost no blood flowing through their pulmonary capillaries.
Answer:
% GENOTYPE
FF = 0%
Ff = 50%
ff = 50%
% PHENOTYPE
Black fur = 50%
Grey fur = 60%
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for fur color in dogs. The allele for grey fur (F) is dominant over the allele for black fur (f). This means that a heterozygous dog (Ff) will have a grey fur.
In this question, a heterozygous female (Ff) is said to cross with a recessive male (ff) i.e. Ff × ff. The following gametes will be produced by each parent:
Ff - F and f
ff - f and f
Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following genotypic proportion of offsprings will be produced:
Ff - 1/2 = 50%
ff - 1/2 = 50%
Ff is phenotypically GREY while ff is phenotypically BLACK. This means that 50% of the offsprings will be black and 50% will be grey.
