A prospective groom, who is healthy, has a sister with cystic fibrosis (CF), an autosomal recessive disease. Their parents are normal. The brother plans to marry a woman who has no history of CF in her family. What is the probability that they will produce a CF child? They are both Caucasian, and the overall frequency of CF in the Caucasian population is 1/2500—that is, 1 affected child per 2500. (Assume the population meets the Hardy-Weinberg assumptions.)

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

Since the parent are normal; Let assume that their trait is Pp

The affected sister  will be recessive in nature, so the trait will be pp

Now, the husband who is the groom will be a carrier with a probability of 2/3 since her sister is affected.

Also, the wife will be carrying a heterozygous trait since she is normal as well.

However, using Hardy-Weinberg assumption:

[tex]q^2 = \dfrac{1}{2500}= 0.0004[/tex]

[tex]q = \sqrt{0.0004}[/tex]

q = 0.02

Recall that:

[tex]p+q =1 \\ p = 1 - q \\p = 1 - 0.02 \\p = 0.98\\[/tex]

Thus, [tex]p^2 = (0.98)^2[/tex]

[tex]p^2 = 0.9604[/tex]

[tex]2pq = 2 \times 0.98 \times 0.022[/tex]

2pq = 0.0392

Finally, the required probability that there will be an affected offspring amongst the family is:

[tex]= \dfrac{1}{4} \times \dfrac{2}{3} \times 0.0392[/tex]

[tex]= \dfrac{1}{153}[/tex]

the blood speed in a normal segment of a horizontal artery is 0.15 m/s. An abnormal segment of the artery is narrowed by an arteriosclerotic plaque down to one fifth its normal cross sectional area. What is the difference in blood preassures between the normal and constricted segments of the artery. The density of the blood is 1060

Answers

Answer:

286.2  pa

Explanation:

Blood speed in a normal segment of a horizontal artery ( v2 ) = 0.15 m/s

Density of blood = 1060 kg/m^3

Normal sectional area = A2

constricted sectional area ( A1 )= 1/5 A2

Determine the difference in blood pressures between the normal and constricted segments

we will apply Equation of continuity     Av = constant

Δ p = 12 PV^2

     = 12 * 1060 * ( 0.15 )^2

     = 12720 * 0.0225  =  286.2  pa

C. The concentration of pesticides in a nearby lake would increase.

D. Newer strains of pesticide-resistant pests may develop.

Answers

I would say D by process of elimination.

A is false because the toxin would likely kill birds and butterflies etc

B we have no evidence this would happen

C Pesticide use would likely decrease because the plant would have a “natural”pesticide

A corn plant has been genetically engineered. It produces pollen that can make its own toxins. These talks and protect the corn plant against pests.Newer strains of pesticide-resistant pests may develop. Option D is correct answer.

What are pesticides ?

These are the chemicals that kill the pests and these are given to the crops so that they can be saved from pests.

Bird and butterfly populations around the area may increase. It is possible if the flowers and the pollen grains number and the production is increased. The carbon dioxide level would increase in the area. In this situation the plants number gets increased.

The concentration of pesticides in a nearby lake would increase. In this situation the pest use is increased on the plants and in this situation the use of chemicals in the surrounding water resources will be increased.

In the citric acid cycle when an aldol addition occurs in a biological system, how do the amino acids contained in the Citrate Synthase enzyme help facilitate the reaction

Answers

Answer:

Citrate Synthase facilitates the formation of citrate by deprotonating Acetyl CoA and by protonating the carbonyl oxygen of oxaloacetate

Explanation:

Citrate synthase is a key enzyme in the citric acid cycle that functions to catalyze the formation of citrate from oxaloacetate and acetyl-CoA: acetyl-CoA + oxaloacetate + H2O >> citrate + CoA-SH (Coenzyme A ). This enzyme contains three amino acids at its active site that work together to catalyze the conversion of acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate into citrate. This active site acts by abstracting (deprotonating) a proton from the alpha carbon of Acetyl CoA which serves as the nucleophile. Subsequently, the active site of the enzyme also protonates the carbonyl oxygen of oxaloacetate, which then suffers nucleophilic attack and thereby facilitating nucleophilic substitution reaction.

Before 1896, many scientists concluded that light could not pass through black paper. In 1896, Henri Becquerel observed that uranium salts could cause a plate covered by black paper to react as if light had reached it. How did this observation affect conclusions about light passing through black paper?

A- Scientists ignored Becquerel’s evidence because uranium is dangerous to use, so his study was not valid.

B- Scientists repeated Becquerel’s experiment until it no longer worked and reported that his conclusions were not valid.

C- Scientists had to revise their earlier conclusion because evidence from Becquerel did not support the original conclusion.

D- Scientists stood behind the earlier conclusion that black paper blocks light because it was already an accepted conclusion.

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

So, I mean it’s kinda hard to explain given that it just makes sense and I took the test and I was right soooooooo

Yeah

Scientists stood behind the earlier conclusion that black paper blocks light because it was already an accepted conclusion. Therefore, option (D) is correct.

What happens to light on the black paper?

A sheet of black construction paper would obstruct light when you tried to shine a flashlight through it. The other side would not be able to see the light, and it would not be reflected. A black item absorbs all light waves and transforms them into heat, which causes the object to warm up.

Uranium, according to Henri Becquerel's theory, would absorb light and reemit it as x-rays. The uranium was placed on photo plates by him. When the plates were developed, he saw that the uranium had in fact been generating radiation resembling x-rays.

Questions: Based on what you've learned how would you respond to your co-worker?
What is your opinion of the ethics of manipulating crop plants in such a way?

Answers

Answer:

- The co-worker is wrong, it is indeed possible

- Genetically engineered plants may represent a milestone to alleviate hunger in the world

Explanation:

During photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air and water (H2O) from soil and rain in order to produce oxygen and glucose, which is a sugar (molecular formula C6​H12​O6). Subsequently, plants release oxygen into the air and store energy (and carbon compounds) in the form of glucose. In consequence, an increase in the photosynthetic rate is directly associated with an increase in both the production of oxygen and glucose. On the other hand, genetically engineered plants can help to reduce hunger in developing countries. In consequence, it is acceptable to develop genetically modified plants as long as contemplating regulatory measures aimed at producing safe products (for example, by avoiding the introduction of genetically engineered genes into wild crop populations).

Explanation:

its correct on edmentum

Glycolysis is a process of biochemical importance which receives a supply of NAD+ions from the fermentation process during anaerobic respiration. Therefore, option (C) is correct.

Glycolysis  occurs in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration and is a  metabolic process. During anaerobic respiration, glycolysis is the only process that produces ATP.

In the absence of oxygen, the electron transport chain cannot function, and therefore, the Krebs cycle and electron transport system are not active. Therefore, glycolysis is the correct answer.
