Suppose in a hospital in the united kingdom, out of 100,986 of babies born in the last 20 years, 15 children were born with myotonic dystrophy. myotonic dystrophy is caused by an autosomal dominant mutation in the dystrophia myotonica protein kinase gene, dmpk. myotonic dystrophy causes progressive muscle weakness, cataracts, and difficulty relaxing clenched hands. of the 15 affected children, only 3 were born to a parent with a dmpk mutation. given this information, what is the mutation rate of the dmpk gene?

Where does all the water go? according to the environmental protection agency (epa), in a typical wetland environment, 39% of the water is outflow; 46% is seepage; 7% evaporates; and 8% remains as water volume in the ecosystem (reference: united states environmental protection agency case studies report 832-r-93-005). chloride compounds as residuals from residential areas are a problem for wetlands. suppose that in a particular wetland environment the following concentrations (mg/l) of chloride compounds were found: outflow, 60.4; seepage, 73.7; remaining due to evaporation, 26.4; in the water volume, 46.8. (a) compute the weighted average of chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) for this ecological system. (round your answer to one decimal place.) mg/l (b) suppose the epa has established an average chlorine compound concentration target of no more than 58 mg/l. does this wetlands system meet the target standard for chlorine compound concentration? yes. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is too high. yes. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is lower than the target. no. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is lower than the target. no. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is too high.
