Question

as we discussed during the lecture at the genetics cause changes and how we express our genes based on that discussion as a surrogate mother who carries an embryo created from an egg of another woman have a direct effect on the gene expression of that child. Why no because genetic effects are silenced by the father sperm no because mitochondrial DNA is only provided by the genetic mother. Yes because genetic effects of the genetic mother are suppressed by the father sperm yes because lifestyle choices make the surrogate mother may affect chromatin structure no because the surrogate mother cannot pass down any gene to the baby.

Step 1

Step 1: Understand that the genetic material of the child comes from the egg donor (genetic mother) and the sperm donor (genetic father), not from the surrogate mother who carries the embryo. Show more…
