Which of the following statements regarding human genetic disorders is accurate?A. Disorders in individual genes can cause disease or provide individuals with a genetic advantage.
B. Nondisjunction can lead to an incorrect number of sex chromosomes.
C. Nondisjunction is responsible for causing Huntington's disease.
D. Disorders in individual genes are responsible for Down's syndrome.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Human genetic disorders can be caused largely by the change of the DNA sequence from its normal sequence. This can also be caused by a monogenic disorder, a mutation in a gene. So the best answer to this question would be letter B since nondisjunction causes chromosomal abnormalities.

Explain why proteins are considered polymers but lipids are not

Answers

Answer:

Polymers are made from a chain of one similar subunit bound together in sequence. Proteins are made from polypepetide chains which are sequences of amino acid subunits. Another example of polymer is DNA and RNA made of nucleic acid subunits.

However, lipids do not have one similar subunit but rather variable ways in which the lipid chains can form. For example phospholipid unit is made of a phosphate molecule bound to a fatty acid chain and glycerol. A triglyceride is a subunit of glycerol bound to three fatty acids chains. Cholesterol is also considered a lipid but is made of carbon rings rather than chains. Lipids therefore cannot be referred to as a polymer.
