Question
Concordance can be a confusing term, so an explanation is presented that will help answer this
question.
Concordance uses Monozygotic (identical) and dizygotic (non-identical) twin pairs to measure
the inherited component of a given trait. If a trait has a strong inherited component than
monozygotic twins should show a higher concordance than dizygotic. If a trait has a low inherited
component that monozygotic twins and dizygotic twins should show a similar concordance.
Using the above explanation rate the following traits in terms of their inherited genetic component
from strongest to weakest.
Autism
MZ Concordance = 90% DZ Concordance = 4.5%
Acne
MZ Concordance = 14% DZ Concordance = 14%
Hypertension
MZ Concordance = 62% DZ Concordance = 48%
Alzheimer diseae
MZ Concordance = 78% DZ Concordance = 39%

After frida stops exercising, she continues to breathe heavily. what is most likely occurring in her body? heavy breathing during exercise has produced an oxygen surplus in her muscles. this oxygen is being transported to her lungs. this is a result of aerobic respiration. heavy breathing during exercise has produced a carbon dioxide surplus in her muscles. lactate is being transported to her liver. this is a result of aerobic respiration. strenuous exercise has caused her body to be in carbon dioxide debt, and she is breathing hard while lactate is transported to the liver. this is a result of anaerobic respiration. strenuous exercise has caused her body to be in oxygen debt, and she is breathing hard while lactate is transported to the liver. this is a result of anaerobic respiration.
