Homework Answers
1 birth requires 2 gametes.
50,000 births will require 2 × 50,000 = 1,00,000 gametes = 10^5
10^6 gametes = 20 mutations
10^5 gametes = 20/10^6 × 10^5 = 2 mutations
So, 10^5 gametes or 50,000 births will show 2 mutations.
Hence, out of 50,000 births, 2 will have retinoblastoma.
Please ratr high.

Miniature wings (min) is an X-linked recessive mutation in flies. If a min-winged female is crossed to a wild-type male, what proportion of the Fį will have min wings? A. 0% B. 25% C. 50% D. 100% Vladimir is a carrier for diastrophic dysplasia (Dd), an autosomal recessive disorder and has achondroplasia, which is an autosomal dominant trait (Aa). Sophie is also a carrier for diastrophic dysplasia and also...

TS =Tumor Suppressor genes
O = Oncogenes
5A. (12pts) Cancer is a genetic disease. Some of the causative mutations are Tumor Suppressor genes, and others convert proto-oncogenes into Oncogenes. In the list of properties below, mark an X in the column for TS, O, or both. TS O both Causes of inherited elevated cancer risk. Leads to uncontrolled cell growth. Typically, spontaneous, gain-of-function mutations. Can cause increased DNA damage. Dominant in...

Help me choose please
Part 2 (1 point) See Hint Mutation of the muscle-specific intermediate filament desmin leads to the rare disease desmin-related myopathy. This disorder starts with weakness of the lower limbs when patients are in their 20s or 30s. As symptoms worsen, weakness in respiratory and cardiac muscles occurs, which can lead to serious problems including sudden cardiac arrest. Which of the following mutations would disrupt desmin intermediate filament structure or function and could explain the symptoms of...
