question 1:
offspring with pompe are cured for life once they receive a dose of the of the gaa enzyme medicine.
true
false
question 2:
what part of the body is affected by pompe disease?
a. brain and heart
b. heart and muscles
c. muscles and stomach
d. liver and heart
question 3:
what part of the cells are involved with pompe disease?
a. mitochondria
b. cytoplasm
c. ribosome
d. lysosome
question 4:
a codon is made up of letters
a. 2
b. 3
c. 4
d. as many as needed to code for the correct amino acid
question 5:
where is lots of glycogen stored in the body?
a. heart muscle
b. skeletal muscle
c. respiratory muscles
d. all of the above
question 6:
use the following scenario for questions 6-8.
julia had a sibling who died because of a genetic disease as an infant. before having children, she and her husband tobias get genetic testing and counseling. they are unlucky.
for the gaa gene, julia has one normal allele and one totally non-functional allele. tobias has one normal allele and one totally non-functional allele.
what is the likelihood that an offspring will have pompe disease?
a. 0% of having pompe disease
b. 25% of having pompe disease
c. 50% of having pompe disease
d. 75% of having pompe disease
e. 100%
question 7:
use the following scenario for questions 6-8.
julia had a sibling who died because of a genetic disease as an infant. before having children, she and her husband tobias get genetic testing and counseling. they are unlucky.
for the gaa gene, julia has one normal allele and one totally non-functional allele. tobias has one normal allele and one totally non-functional allele.
if any of their offspring test positive for pompe disease, when are symptoms likely to develop (remember, both parents have one non-functioning allele, 0%gaa)?
a. before the age of nine months
b. anytime during adolescence up through middle adulthood.
question 8:
use the following scenario for questions 6-8.
julia had a sibling who died because of a genetic disease as an infant. before having children, she and her husband tobias get genetic testing and counseling. they are unlucky.
for the gaa gene, julia has one normal allele and one totally non-functional allele. tobias has one normal allele and one totally non-functional allele.
imagine you are their genetic counselor. explain to the parents, what causes the disease and explain how it affects the body and how the treatment for pompe will work.
use this checklist to make sure your answer is complete:
how is the dna of an offspring with pompe different than the dna of somewhat without the disease?
what function is being disrupted at the cellular level ?
why does having this disease lead to death (what happens to the body)?
what is the treatment that is used to pompe patients?
how does it "fix" the problem?
are offspring with pompe cured for life once they receive a dose of the medicine? explain why or why not.
