Assume that a recessive allele (f) is associated with a severe language disorder. an unaffected male wants to determine the genotypes of his wife, his parents, and himself. his mother has the language disorder. neither he nor his wife has the language disorder, but one of their five children does. what is the genotype for each individual? answers may be used more than once or not at all. (note: the gene associated with this language disorder is on an autosome.)

The autosomal dominance inheritance pattern occurs when the altered allele is dominant over the normal one and only one copy is sufficient for the disease to be expressed. Being autosomal, the gene is found in one of 22 pairs of non-sex chromosomes, or autosomes, and can affect sons and daughters equally. The altered allele may have been inherited from both the father and the mother. It usually oocurs in all generations of a family. Each affected person normally has an affected parent and a 50% chance with each child that he inherits the mutated allele and develops the autosomal dominant disease.

Answer from: makayla10119

MOM: ff UNAFFECTED MALE: Ff WIFE: Ff CHILDREN: #1 ff, #2 FF, #3 Ff, #4 FF, #5 Ff

Explanation:

We know that a recessive allele (f) is associated with the language disorder. This means that to have the severe language disorder, one must have ff for the gene to be expressed. A member cannot have the disorder if FF OR Ff is displayed. Remember that (F) is a dominant allele, meaning that if it is displayed (even once in the genotype!), the recessive allele (f) is not expressed.

Let's do a run down of the genotype in each family member.The male's Mother (TRUE-has disorder): [ff]The male (FALSE-doesn't have disorder) [Ff]The male's Wife (False- doesn't have it) [Ff]Children: FF Ff Ff ff FF(there are different possibilities for each child, but remember to include ff for one child. The other four can be FF and/or ff. I think your instructor is asking you to put down all combination for their children, so you may want to do that!)

If we create a Punnett Square, we can see that combining the Man's and Wife's alleles will create a 50% chance that their offspring will have the severe language disorder or ff. It will also create a 25% chance that their offspring will not have the disorder or Ff, and another 25% chance of FF (doesn't have disorder).

question 1

the reasons for the global discontent in the early 1900s were the following:

desire for independence was the main fight of many territories which were still under the control of colonial powers. dissatisfaction with peace terms of wwi . the best example is the case of germany, that was forced by the peace treaties to pay very expensive war reparations to the winners of wwi. some time later, german leaders broke relations and stopped recognizing the authority of those who imposed sanctions on their country, counting with the support of the population that was suffering the important economic consequences of the payment of reparations. overproduction of consumer goods which led to hyperinflation scenarios and very week currencies and economies.

question 2

the reasons for the great depression were the following, and these led to wall street crash in october 1929 and caused the subsequent great recession period.

high personal debt, that ended up with many bankrupt investors. falling stock price as everybody was getting rid of the stocks, many because they could not meet the amounts of money required by the margins that backed their investments.

In e. c. tolman's experiment, some rats were trained to run through mazes for standard food goals, while other rats were allowed to explore the mazes for 10 days without food goals or other rewards. later, when food rewards were placed in a box at the far end of the maze, the previously unrewarded rats reached the food box as quickly as the rewarded rats after only one or two trials. this experiment demonstrated that the rats had the ability to form of their surroundings.
