Huntington's disease, an autosomal dominant disorder, is expressed only with a homozygous phenotype. a. true b. false

B. False

Being autosomal "dominant" means that only one copy of the dominant allele need be present to cause the disorder.
So if H is the dominant Huntington allele, and h is normal, HH (homozygous dominant) or Hh (heterozygous) will lead to Huntington. Only homozygous recessive will be free from the disorder, or normal (hh).

If these are the missing choices: a. to determine skin temperature, place the back of your hand against the patient's skin.b. determine body temperature by touching the patient's hands and feet.c. skin temperature will tell you very little about this patient's condition or well-being.d. the patient's skin temperature and color will likely be warm and red.my answer is: a. to determine skin temperature, place the back of your hand against the patient's skin. using the back of the hand to check for temperature rather than the palm is more effective because the back of the hand has more nerves that can feel and transmit the temperature than the palm.
