- Jan is concerned about using ART. She wants to be the genetic mother and have Darryl be the genetic father of any children they have. What methods of ART would you recommend to this couple? Jan, a 32-year-old woman, and her husband, Darryl, have been married for 7 years. They have attempted to have a baby on several occasions. Five years ago, they had a first-trimester miscarriage, followed by an ectopic pregnancy later the same year. Jan continued to see her OB/GYN physician for infertility problems but was very dissatisfied with the response. After four miscarriages, she went to see a fertility specialist, who diagnosed her with severe endometriosis and polycystic ovarian disease (detected by hormone studies). The infertility physician explained that these two conditions were hampering her ability to become pregnant and thus making her infertile. She referred Jan to a genetic counselor. At the appointment, the counselor explained to Jan that one form of endometriosis (MIM 131200) can be a genetic disorder, and that polycystic ovarian disease can also be a genetic disorder (MIM 184700) and is one of the most common reproductive disorders among women. The counselor recommended that a detailed family history of both Jan and Darryl would help establish whether Jans problems have a genetic component and whether any of her potential daughters would be at risk for one or both of these disorders. In the meantime, Jan is taking hormones, and she and Darryl are considering alternative modes of reproduction. Using the information in Figure 16.4, explain the reproductive options that are open to Jan and Darryl.arrow_forwardAssuming sexual reproduction and that no mutations have occurred.

- Please answer fast You are working in a research lab investigating imprinting. You have created some zygotes by exchanging the pronuclei of different embryos so that some embryos have only paternal chromosomes or only maternal chromosomes. If you implanted a zygote carrying only paternal chromosomes into a surrogate uterus, you might expect a. A healthy embryo would grow, but the placenta would be defective b. An ectopic pregnancy would likely occur c. A healthy fetus would likely develop d. A hydatidiform mole would likely formarrow_forwardPlease help me with the question below - it is based on genomics/developmental biology.arrow_forwardWhy is karyotyping significant in understanding chromosomal abnormalities?

- Over a period of two years, a man in his early 20s receiveda series of intermittent chemotherapy and radiotherapytreatments for Hodgkin disease. During this therapy, heand his wife were unable to initiate a pregnancy. The man had aseries of his semen samples examined at a fertility clinic. The findings revealed that shortly after each treatment very few mature sperm were present, and abnormal chromosome numbers were often observed in developing spermatocytes. However, such chromosome abnormalities disappeared about 40 days after treatment, and normal sperm reappeared about 74 days posttreatment. How might a genetic counselor explain the time-related differences in sperm production and the appearance and subsequent disappearance of chromosomal abnormalities?arrow_forwardThe sex of an infant will be female when The mother's ovary produces testosterone early in pregnancy The X chromosome is received from the father .

- Is it good to be favor of cloning, especially humans? Why or Why not?arrow_forwardWhen human couples are unable to conceive a child, they sometimes seek help through assisted reproduction technology. There are many techniques that can help couples conceive. One method involves encouraging one embryo to split into multiple identical embryos, which increases the number of available embryos. Essentially, this is an artificial method of creating twins and is an example ofA. Reproductive CloningB. Therapeutic CloningC.
