A scientist is researching two different traits in an insect: body texture and color. Smooth body (B) is dominant to bumpy body (b), and gray (G) is dominant to white (g). A BbGg and a bbgg insect mate and produce the following 480 offspring: Phenotype Number of Offspring Smooth, gray 119 Bumpy, white 117 Smooth, white 123 Bumpy, gray 121 What type of inheritance is displayed from these offspring

Answer:

Independent assortment

Explanation:

The type of inheritance displayed by the offspring is a simple independent assortment inheritance according to Mendelian law.

The result of crossing BbGg and bbgg is as follows (see the attached image)

4 BbGg smooth and gray

4 Bbgg  smooth and white

4 bbGg bumpy and gray

4 bbgg bumpy and white

The phenotype ratio from the cross is 1:1:1:1 as far as the independent assortment is concerned.

Now, looking at the population of each phenotype from the cross

Smooth, gray 119

Smooth, white 123

Bumpy, gray 121

Bumpy, white 117

119:123:121:117 is approximately equal to 1:1:1:1.

Hence, the cross agrees with Mendel's law of independent assortment of genes.

The process of transcription is known to have a less effective “proofing” stage to check the sequence of bases than does the process of DNA replication. What effect does this have on the base sequences produced by transcription?

A.Errors in the base sequences will result in a damaged strand of DNA.

B.The base sequences of mRNA can be exactly the same as those on DNA.


C. It is more likely that there will be more errors in coding base sequences in mRNA than there will be in DNA.

D. It is more likely that there will be fewer errors in coding base sequences in mRNA than there will be in DNA.

NS is a 32-year-old female who had been sick with a cold virus for 10 days. She states that she had flu symptoms of cough, sore throat, and fatigue. It has been 3 weeks since the cold, and she continues to be fatigued and finds it hard to get enough energy to do things. NS says she has noted that she has been bruising easily. She hit her arm accidentally on the edge of a counter, and now she has a large bruise. She has also noted little purple spots all over her hands and chest. On exam it is noted that she does have a large bruise on her right arm and petechiae and purpura over her chest and hands. Lab work comes back with a platelet count of 40,000mm^3.

Required:
NS has been diagnosed with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). Explain what it is and who can get it.
