A 4-dаy-оld infаnt, bоrn аt 27 weeks оf gestational age, develops recurrent symptoms of RDS. The infant had been removed from mechanical ventilation and extubated at day 3 and was receiving NCPAP with an FIO2 of 0.4 when lung function acutely worsened. CXR shows a widespread, diffuse granular pattern, and analysis of arterial blood samples from the umbilical line demonstrates that oxygen saturation is refractory to increases in FIO2. The most likely cause for these recurrent symptoms of RDS is:

Genetics оf Hаrry Pоtter (Nо Hаrry Potter knowledge required) The Hаrry Potter books and movies are largely about the wizards and witches being trained in a 'wizard-school' called Hogwarts. Many of the characters in these books can use magic; magic runs in families but is very rare in the general (muggle) population. Let us assume that the ability to use magic is controlled by a single gene (M) on chromosome 13 that is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. Another trait exhibited by some of the book's characters is that they wear glasses. In real-life there are many genes that determine whether or not someone may need glasses, but let us pretend that it is only controlled by a single gene (G) and that it is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern such that those with the gg genotype need glasses. Table 1. Genotypes and Phenotypes Condition Description Gene Inheritance Pattern Talent for Magic Magic power that allows the users to cast spells. Magic (M) gene (Chr. 13, long arm) Alleles: M and m Autosomal Dominant MM and Mm can use magic Needs to wear glasses Myopia or another eye condition which requires these individuals to wear glasses to see well. Glasses (G) gene (Chr. 13, long arm) Alleles: G and g Autosomal Recessive gg needs glasses Figure 1. Pedigree showing the relationships between Harry Potter and other members of his family. Each person's traits (i.e. whether or not they use magic and whether or not they wear glasses) are listed below their portrait. Pure-blood individuals come from 'true-breeding' familes with respect to their magic gene; they will be MM. Half-Blood indidivudals have at least one parent, grand-parent, or great-grand-parent who was unable to use magic; they could potentially be Mm, or mm. You can use this pedigree to determine the genotypes of James Potter, Lily Potter, Harry Potter, and Giny Weasley for the M and G genes.
