(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine:

If both the parents are carriers of the hemochromatosis and have three children then what is the probability that; (a) All three children are of normal phenotype. (b) One or more of the three children have the disease, (c) All three children have the disease, (d) Atleast one child is phenotypically normal.

Introduction:

Hemochromatosis is a hereditary disease in which the iron from the blood gets deposited into the tissues. This causes the accumulation of the iron in the tissues that causes damage to the liver.

To determine:

If both the parents are carriers of the hemochromatosis and have three children then what is the probability that all three children are of normal phenotype.

Biology Question
✓ Details Draw a protein that is embedded in a membrane (a transmembrane protein), label the lipid bilayer and the protein. Identify the areas of the lipid bilayer that are hydrophobic and hydrophilic. Draw a membrane with two transporters: a proton pump transporter that uses ATP to generate a proton gradient, and a second transporter that moves glucose by secondary active transport (cartoon-like is ok). It will be important to show protons moving in the correct direction, and that the transporter that is powered by secondary active transport is logically related to the proton pump.
drawing chemical structure of ATP. please draw in and label whats asked. Thank you.
