Explain the differences between an individual homozygous for the sickle hemoglobin allele (HbS/HbS) and one who is heterozygous (HbA/HbS). Consider the hemoglobin molecule, cells, and disease.
Is HLB helpful to formulate various dosage forms? Explain with examples.
Dentinogenesis imperfecta is a rare, autosomal, dominantly inherited disease of the teeth which occurs about one in 8000 (Witkop, 1957). The teeth are somewhat brown in color and the crowns wear down rapidly. Assume that a male with dentinogenesis imperfecta and no family history of the disease, marries a woman with normal teeth. What is the probability that:
(a) their first child will have dentinogenesis imperfecta?
(b) their first two children will have dentinogenesis imperfecta?
(c) their first child will be a girl with dentinogenesis imperfecta?

- Sickle-cell disease (often called sickle-cell anemia) is a disease that is caused by a mutation to the gene that is responsible for producing the protein hemoglobin. Remember that hemoglobin is a protein in the red blood cells which is responsible for carrying oxygen throughout the body. When a person possesses the mutated hemoglobin allele, their red blood cells take on an altered shape and this results in a variety of symptoms ranging from general weakening of the body, damage to the organs and even death. The sickle cell allele is recessive to the healthy allele, thus only individuals that are homozygous for the recessive allele will have sickle-cell disease. Individuals that are homozygous for the healthy allele, along with heterozygous, individuals will be physically healthy. Question: Given that this mutated allele will cause disease and death in individuals, what would you predict to occur to the frequency of this allele in the population? Explain.arrow_forwardSickle anemia is a favorable mutation. There is only one amino acid different in sickle haemoglobin (S) as compared with normal haemogloblin (A). Persons with sickle cell trait (AS) are able to survive in malarious areas. A couple each having sickle cell trait have five children. What is the probability that they will have a child with sickle disease?arrow_forwardWhat is a healthy dient?arrow_forward

Modifying epistasis can be observed in the coat color of Dobermans. The doberman has two color genes: a black(B) and a color-dilution(D) gene. These two genes can create four different colors combinations in coat. Among the two color genes in the Doberman dogs, which one is the epistatic gene, and which one is the hypostatic gene.
