Biochemistry involves the production and degradation of biological molecules such as nucleic acids, proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and vitamins. Changes in the production or degradation of these important molecules can cause disorders and diseases in humans. For each of the human disorders and diseases listed below, indicate whether it is caused by a change in: (A) nucleic acids (for example: DNA or RNA); (B) amino acids/proteins; (C) lipids (for example: cholesterol or triglycerides); (D) carbohydrates/sugars; or (E) vitamins. Provide only one (1) answer for each disease.

Approximately 90% of all cases of polycystic kidney disease are inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. the disease is typically related to mutations to genes (pkd1 and pkd2). pkd genes can be found on chromosome 16. the disease occurs in approximately 1: 800 to 1: 1000 people. here is a hypothetical example. the dominant allele d will cause the development of pkd. the recessive allele is known as d. what genotypes would correspond to suffering from pkd? dd, dd what genotypes would correspond to being normal (not suffering from pkd)? dd consider that 1: 1,000 people have pkd in your population of 325million. consider that pkd is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. show you math for all of the following questions: what is the genotypic frequency for dd? what is the genotypic frequency for dd? what is the genotypic frequency for dd? what is p? what is q? how many people in your population would have pkd?
