Types of genetic testing (carrier screening) and indications for use - ANSWER--1.
Amniocentesis. Amniocentesis is used to test for single gene disorders and neural
tube defects, such as spina bifida and ancephaly, via the withdrawal of amniotic
fluid from the uterus at 16 weeks gestation.
2. CVS. Chorionic villus sampling is used by extracting tissue from the chorion
between 10 and 12 weeks gestation.
3. PGD. Preimplantation genetic testing is the testing of embryos prior to
implantation by extracting one to two cells from the embyro. The embyro is not
implanted if a genetic disorder is discovered.
Turner Syndrome - ANSWER--A chromosomal disorder in females in which either
an X chromosome is missing, making the person XO instead of XX, or part of one X
chromosome is deleted. Signs are: short stature, webbed neck, widely spaced
nipples.
Which is a symptom of Grave's Disease?
Lid lag
Lethargy
Cool, moist skin
Decreased sympathetic response - ANSWER--Lid Lag.
Feedback: Symptoms of Graves' disease include anxiety, hand tremor, heat
sensitivity, weight loss, puffy eyes, lid lag, and enlarged thyroid.

Cri du chat syndrome - ANSWER--A deletion of the short arm of chromosome 5
associated with an array of congenital malformations. Cri du chat syndrome can
present as a microcephalic, low birth-weight baby with a piercing cry.
Types of Immunity - ANSWER--Active natural: Body produces antibodies in
response to exposure to a live pathogen.
Active artificial: Body produces antibodies in response to a vaccine.
Passive natural: Antibodies are passed from the mom to her baby through the
placenta and breastmilk.
Passive artificial: Immunoglobulins are administered to an individual after
exposure to a pathogen.
systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) - ANSWER--Systemic lupus erythematosus
(SLE), is the most common type of lupus. SLE is an autoimmune disease in which
the immune system attacks its own tissues, causing widespread inflammation and
tissue damage in the affected organs. It can affect the joints, skin, brain, lungs,
kidneys, and blood vessels. Symptoms include: Malar rash, Ulcers/mucocutaneous
involvement, Kidney involvement, proteinuria, urinary cellular casts, Seizures,
Thrombocytopenia, Hemolytic anemia, Fever, Lymphadenopathy.
Down Syndrome - ANSWER--a condition of intellectual disability and associated
physical disorders caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21 (trisomy 21)
Cardinal signs of infection - ANSWER--redness, heat, swelling, pain, loss of
function

Which type of genetic disease affects males more frequently than females? -
ANSWER--Sex-linked recessive. Since males have only one X and one Y, if the
affected chromosome has the illness, it will be expressed.
In which two conditions are chromosomal abnormalities the leading known
cause? - ANSWER--Chromosome abnormalities are the leading known cause of
intellectual disability and fetal miscarriage.
What are three examples of prenatal diagnostic studies? - ANSWER--PGT, CVS,
Amniocentesis. Chorionic villus sampling (CVS), amniocentesis, and
preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) are examples of prenatal diagnostic studies
and are performed in vitro. CVS is a form of genetic testing that provides genetic
information found in utero and is usually performed between weeks 11 and 14 of
pregnancy. An amniocentesis is a form of genetic testing that evaluates amniotic
fluid and is usually performed during the second trimester, between weeks 15
and 20 of pregnancy. PGT is performed on the embryo prior to implantation.
Which genetic disorder is characterized by the presence of a zygote having one
chromosome with a normal complement of genes and one chromosome with a
missing gene? - ANSWER--Cri du chat syndrome (translated as "cry of the cat") is
caused by a DNA deletion. This term describes the cry often heard from a baby
affected by the syndrome. Cri du chat syndrome can present as a microcephalic,
low birth-weight baby with a piercing cry.

How can an X-linked recessive disease skip generations? - ANSWER--The disease
can be transmitted through female carriers. Since females have two copies of the
X chromosome, the mother may provide an unaffected X to a daughter or son.
Furthermore, a daughter may not show signs of the disease because she has the
other X (the only X the father can give to a female) to cancel it out.
Which type of risk is referred to as the ratio of the disease rate among the entire
population to the disease rate in an unexposed population? - ANSWER--Relative
risk is a ratio of probability, not an actual occurrence of disease.
What are the empirical risks for most multifactorial diseases based on? -
ANSWER--Many factors from lifestyle to genetics affect multifactorial diseases.
Observation and evaluation of each case individually provides the most thorough
and accurate assessment.
_________ refers to the silenced gene of a gene pair - ANSWER--The imprinted
gene is the silent gene of a gene pair.
What is the primary reason that some older adults have impaired inflammation
and wound healing? - ANSWER--A generalized inflammatory response seen in
chronic illness depletes the body's reserves to fight against illness.
Which cells are the body's primary defense against parasite invasion? - ANSWER--
Eosinophils are the body's primary defense against parasites.
