Question 1

The incidence of Tay Sachs, an autosomal recessive genetic disorder, is approximately 1 in 3,500 in a certain population of Ashkenazi Jews. Assuming Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, what is the frequency of carriers for the Tay Sachs allele in this population?
◦ 1.5%
◦ 1.7%
◦ 2.9%
◦ 3.3%
◦ 98.5%

Question 2

The incidence of Tay-Sachs, an autosomal recessive genetic disorder, is approximately 1 in 3,500 in a certain population of Ashkenazi Jews. Assuming that this population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, what is the probability that a phenotypically normal female, with no family history, and a phenotypically normal male, who had an affected sister, will have a child with Tay-Sachs?
◦ 0.028%
◦ 0.49%
◦ 0.55%
◦ 1.96%
◦ 2.2%

The human body's pharmacokinetics are quite varied. Our hair holds onto drugs longer than our urine, blood, or saliva. For example, alcohol can be detected in the hair for up to 90 days after it was consumed. The same is true for marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy, heroin, methamphetamine, and nicotine.

A serious new warning has been established for pregnant women against taking ACE inhibitors during pregnancy. In the study, the risk of major birth defects in children whose mothers took ACE inhibitors during the first trimester was nearly three times higher than in children whose mothers didn't take ACE inhibitors. Physicians can prescribe alternative medications for pregnant women who have symptoms of high blood pressure.
