Homozygous recessive is when an individual carries two identical copies of the recessive gene. An individual that is homozygous recessive for both traits will have the genotype, aabb.
Answer:
The correct answer would be
- It cures all cases of cystic fibrosis.
-
It involves the modification of DNA.
- It attempts to replace a mutated gene with normal DNA.
- It does not always cure patients who use it.
Gene therapy is an experimental technique used to treat the genetic disorder by transplanting the normal gene into the cell in order to replace the missing or defective gene in a cell.
It helps in treating genetic disorders such as cystic fibrosis, hemophilia et cetera.
It can be of two types of somatic gene therapy and germline gene therapy.
Answer:
Anaerobic respiration resulting in oxygen debt, due to lactic acid accumulation.
Explanation:
After strenuous muscle activity extra oxygen is needed to re-convert lactic acid into glucose and ATP. As you exercise the liver anaerobically converts glucose to lactic acid and carbon dioxide this results in oxygen debts that needs to be repaid later.
Oxygen debt by definition is the amount of oxygen needed by muscles to oxidise lactic acid to glucose after muscle activity.
Answer:
Opportunistic.
Explanation:
Pathogen may be defined as the disease causing organism. The opportunistic pathogen causes disease mostly in the organism with weak immune system of the body.
The opportunistic pathogen can cause disease if the environmental condition is favorable for pathogen. These pathogens are not capable of inducing disease in the healthy individual.
Thus, the answer is opportunistic.
Answer: Hydrophobic hormones
Explanation:
Hydrophobic hormones are able to diffuse through the membrane and interact with the intracellular receptor.
These hormones travels in the blood plasma which is bound to the plasma protein.
Example: Steroidal hormones are highly hydrophobic in nature.Steroids are sex hormones related to the maturity of the body.
