Question
Chapter 7, Problem 13AQP
a.
Summary Introduction
To determine:
Whether the pattern of baldness will show independent assortment between genetic marker on the X chromosomes and pattern of blandness if the pattern of baldness is sex influenced
a.
Expert Solution
Explanation of Solution
If pattern of baldness is considered as sex-influenced trait, then the genes responsible for baldness must be present on autosomal chromosomes. Thus, the pattern of baldness would independently assort from genetic marker on X chromosomes.
b.
Summary Introduction
To determine:
Whether the pattern of baldness will show independent assortment between genetic marker on the X chromosomes and pattern of blandness, if the pattern of baldness is X-linked recessive.
b.
Expert Solution
Explanation of Solution
If the pattern of baldness is X-linked recessive trait, then the genes of baldness will be present on X chromosomes only. If the genes of baldness and genetic markers are present in close proximity on X chromosome, then they will not assort independently. If they lie far apart, then they will be assorted easily.
Conclusion
Independent assortment between genetic marker on the X chromosomes and pattern of blandness depends upon weather the pattern of baldness gene is sex-linked or X linked gene.

If you wanted to reduce the difference between peak and trough levels that occur with repeated administration of a drug, how would you adjust the dose and dose interval without changing the plateau concentration (plateau is the average of peak and trough levels)? Select your answers for both dose and interval. Hint: It may be helpful to think about this problem using an example such as food. How would you eat if you wanted to maintain very steady hunger/satiety levels without changing your total caloric intake?
Options:
A. Dose; Increase dose
B. Dose; Decrease dose
C. Dose; Do not change dose
D. Interval; Increase the interval between doses (give the drug less frequently)
E. Interval; Decrease the interval between doses (give the drug more frequently)
F. Interval; Do not change the interval
What percentage of a drug is eliminated after 4 half-lives? Please round to the nearest percent. Show the math
