A teenaged boy with numerous nosebleeds was referred to a physician for evaluation prior to a minor surgery. His prothrombin time (PT) was 11 sec (11–15 sec normal), partial thromboplastin time (PTT) was 58 sec (25–40 sec normal), and bleeding time was 6.5 min (2–7 min normal). Which of the following is most likely abnormal in this young man?

Given the following information, determine whether the number of females in the population is increasing, decreasing, or remaining the same. Of 1000 individuals in age group 0–1 none reproduce and 500 survive to age group 1–2. One-half of those in age group 1–2 survive to age group 2–3. 125 individuals survive to age group 3–4. In age group 3–4 there is an average of 1 female birth per female. In each age group, with the exception of the 0–1 age group, there is an average of 1 female birth per female.

In the mating Hfr met- his+ leu+ trp+ × F- met+ his- leu- trp-.  The met marker is known to be transferred very late. After a short time, the mating cells are interrupted and the cell suspensions plated on four different growth media. The amino acids in the growth media and the number of colonies observed on each are as follows:

histidine + tryptophan  250 colonies

histidine + leucine         50 colonies 

leucine + tryptophan    500 colonies

histidine                       10 colonies
