If anyone is really good at Biology could you help me with these 6 questions please!
1.
(3.08 LC)
Shania has a family history of a genetically inherited disease. Based on this information, which statement is true? (2 points)
AShania has an increased risk of the disease.
BShania will get the disease at some point in her lifetime.
CIf Shania makes unhealthy choices, she will get the disease.
DThe disease will be expressed in all her offspring that have that gene.
2.
(3.08 MC)
Why are personal hygiene and safe health practices important even when you are among people who are apparently healthy? (2 points)
AMost diseases are not transmitted from other people.
BSome infections do not immediately produce symptoms.
CPeople may unknowingly be genetic carriers of an infection.
DIf the weather changes, even healthy people are more likely to get sick.
3.
(3.08 MC)
What health risk, if any, is related to secondhand smoke? (2 points)
ASecondhand smoke does not affect nonsmokers.
BIt cannot be determined if secondhand smoke presents a health risk.
CExposure to cigarette smoke also puts nonsmoking people at increased health risk.
DSecondhand smoke only affects those who already smoke, due to increased smoke inhalation.
4.
(3.08 LC)
What factor best determines whether a person gets cancer? (2 points)
AMaternal genes alone determine whether a peson gets cancer.
BPaternal genes alone determine whether a person gets cancer.
CA combination of environmental and genetic factors cause cancer.
DEnvironmental factors alone determine whether any type of cancer occurs.
5.
(3.08 MC)
A child has a father with diabetes, which is a disease with a heritable component. What is the likelihood this child will eventually have diabetes? (2 points)
AIf the child is male, he will have the disease when he is older.
BBecause it is inherited, the child will also have diabetes after a certain age.
CBoth the child's father and mother must have diabetes for it to be inherited.
DThe likelihood is higher, but also depends on lifestyle choices of the child.
