There is a hypothetical gene in mice that produces a substance that induces twitchiness in hind leg muscles. A female mouse of a true-breeding twitchy strain is mated with a male of a true-breeding non-twitchy strain. All progeny are twitchy. Twitchiness may simply be a dominant trait caused by a nuclear allele, or it could be due to mtDNA.  Which of these procedures would you use to provide evidence for your hypothesis that twitchiness is due to mtDNA?
◦ Sequence the mtDNA of the twitchy mother.
◦ Breed twitchy male progeny with normal females to show no paternal inheritance.
◦ Breed twitchy female with twitchy male F1 mice to verify there is maternal inheritance.
◦ Backcross twitchy female offspring with normal fathers.
◦ Sequence the mtDNA of the twitchy male offspring.

ACTH levels are normally highest in the early morning (between 6 and 8 A.M.) and lowest in the evening (between 6 and 11 P.M.). Therefore, a doctor who suspects abnormal levels looks for low ACTH in the morning and high ACTH in the evening.

To combat osteoporosis, changes in lifestyle and diet are recommended. At-risk patients should include 1,200 to 1,500 mg of calcium daily either via dietary means or with supplements.

Did you know?

Prostaglandins were first isolated from human semen in Sweden in the 1930s. They were so named because the researcher thought that they came from the prostate gland. In fact, prostaglandins exist and are synthesized in almost every cell of the body.

Did you know?

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
