For each response, you must first state whether you are accepting or rejecting that statement. Then,you must write a detailed explanation why you accept or reject each of the choices.PROBLEM:
After playing beach volleyball on a hot summer day, Sam is sweating hard and feeling very thirsty. Afriend suggests drinking some beer to help his body replace the fluids it has lost. Which one of thefollowing statements contains the most logical and accurate response?A. Great idea! In addition to the fluid, the beer will replenish nutrients he's used up.B. Good idea! Not only will the beer replenish the fluids, but it will help remove excess salts that haveaccumulated.C. No way! Although the beer will replenish the fluids, it will cause removal of important solutes fromthe kidneys.D. No way! The beer will only intensify the problem of dehydration by suppressing ADH.E. No way! The beer may help replenish the fluids, but it will merely make him sweat even more

This practice question is from the textbook "Genetics: From Genes to Genomes". It is chapter 13, question 9.
a. Which two of the breakpoints could yield a deletion?
b. Write the sequence and polarity of a 16-base primer that, in conjunction with primer A, will allow you to diagnose the presence of a deletion in a patient’s genomic DNA. The evidence should be positive, not negative. (That is, you will see a PCR product whose presence and/or size is specific to the deletion; the absence of a band is not informative.)
c. Which two of the breakpoints could yield an inversion?
d. Write the sequence and polarity of a 16-base primer that, in conjunction with primer A, will allow you to diagnose the presence of an inversion in a patient’s genomic DNA. Your answer should show the primer that would yield the longest possible diagnostic PCR product. Your primer cannot cross any of the red lines.
e. Which two of the breakpoints could yield a reciprocal translocation? (Two possible answers exist;…

- MyoD is a transcriptional factor that acts specifically in muscle cells. It is hypothesized that Id proteins indirectly repress the transcription of muscle-specific proteins by inhibiting the function of MyoD. Which of the following are mechanisms by which Id proteins act as indirect repressors? (choose all that applies) Compete with activators for access to an enhancer. Bind the activation domain of an activator bound to an enhancer. Bind to activators and hold them in the cytoplasm. Form heterodimers with activators and lessen the homodimers of activators.
