What Does It Mean to Be a Cystic Fibrosis Carrier?
Cystic fibrosis is caused by a mutation of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene. If you are a CF carrier, it means that one of your CFTR genes is normal, and the other contains a mutation that is known to cause cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis only occurs when both copies of the CFTR gene contain a mutationâthis is why cystic fibrosis is called an autosomal recessive disease, as opposed to an autosomal dominant disease (in which only one copy of the mutated gene is needed for disease development).


Cystic Fibrosis Symptoms and Treatment
Other tests measure how well the lungs, pancreas and liver are working to help determine the extent and severity of cystic fibrosis once it is diagnosed. 1  These tests include: 2  Chest X-rays. 3  Pulmonary (lung) function tests (PFTs) 4  Tests of pancreatic function.


Overview
Cystic fibrosis is an inherited disorder that causes severe damage to the lungs, digestive system and other organs in the body. Cystic fibrosis affects the cells that produce mucus, sweat and digestive juices. These secreted fluids are normally thin and slippery. But in people with cystic fibrosis, a defective gene causes the secretions to become sticky and thick.


What Does It Mean to Be a Cystic Fibrosis Carrier?
The possible combinations that two CF carriers can pass onto their child are: 1  Normal CFTR from mom + mutation from dad = carrier. 2  Normal CFTR from dad + mutation from mom = carrier. 3  Normal CFTR from mom + normal CFTR from dad = not a carrier and does not have CF. 4  Mutated CFTR from mom + mutated CFTR from dad = cystic fibrosis.


Cystic Fibrosis
Other organs may be affected which may cause various other problems in some cases. 1  Also, the pancreas and airways may become severely affected. Therefore, other problems which may also occur in some cases include: 2  Repeated sinus infections. 3  Growths (polyps) forming in the nose.

What Is the Law of Conservation of Momentum?
The law of conservation of momentum is also demonstrated in a game of football. When two players run into each other, it is their momentum that determines which ones gets tackled, and not their mass. This is based on Newton's third law of motion. Newton's First Law Newton's first law is the law of inertia.


Momentum
The momentum of an object is defined as the mass of the object multiplied by the velocity of the object. Mathematically, that definition can be expressed as p = m Â· v, where p represents momentum, m represents mass, and v represents velocity.


Momentum
Since velocity is a vector quantity, then momentum must also be a vector quantity. Conservation of momentum Some of the most common situations involving momentum are those in which two moving objects collide with each other or in which a moving object collides with an object at rest.


Momentum
In many instances, the mass of an object is measured in kilograms (kg) and the velocity in meters per second (m/s). In that case, momentum is measured in kilogram-meters per second (kg Â· m/s). Recall that velocity is a vector quantity.


Momentum
By virtue of the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum of the rocket and fuel must remain zero. The momentum of the escaping gases is regarded as having a negative value because they travel in a direction opposite to that of the rocket's intended motion.


Momentum
The answer to that question can be obtained from the law of conservation of momentum, which says that the total momentum of a system before some given event must be the same as the total momentum of the system after the event.


Momentum
Therefore, after the collision, the total momentum of the two cars must still be 15,000 kg Â· mps. Applications A knowledge of the laws of momentum is very important in many occupations. For example, the launch of a rocket provides a dramatic application of momentum conservation.


"What Does ""cause and Effect"" Mean?"
The law of conservation of momentum says that the momentum before an event must be the same as the amount after due to its constant conservation. It is an element of the law of... The law of conservation of momentum says that the momentum before an event must be the same as the amount after due to its constant conservation.


-
Quick Answer. The law of conservation of momentum states that for two objects colliding in an isolated system, the total momentum before and after the collision is equal. This is because the momentum lost by one object is equal to the momentum gained by the other. Conservation of momentum is derived from Newton's laws of motion.


What Is the Law of Conservation of Momentum?
Exploring Momentum Momentum is an object's mass multiplied by its velocity. This is expressed in a formula that reads p = mv. It has both direction and magnitude, making it a vector quantity. Law of Conservation of Momentum Examples One example would be a vehicle accident.

Puerto Rico
Congress amended the Foraker Act to enable it to pass Puerto Ricoâs budget bills if the house of delegates failed to act, and American officials became newly aware of Puerto Ricoâs grievances with its governing legislation. 44


Puerto Rican citizenship
Section VII of this act created a Puerto Rican citizenship for the residents born in Puerto Rico and, therefore, subject to its jurisdiction. The Puerto Rican citizenship replaced the Spanish citizenship that Puerto Ricans held at the time in 1898. Such Puerto Rican citizenship was granted by Spain in 1897.


Puerto Rico's History
On April 2, the Foraker Law, officially the Organic Act of 1900, is approved, establishing civil government and free commerce between the island and United States. The law was introduced into Congress by senator Joseph B. Foraker. Puerto Rico became U.S. first unincorporated territory. The new government had an American governor, with 5 Puerto Rican Cabinet members. The first civil governor (Charles H. Allen) of the island under the Foraker Act was inaugurated on May 1, in San Juan.

Puerto Rico is a Territory of the United States
With this law: 1  Puerto Rico became a territory of the United States (organized but unincorporated,) 2  A bill of rights was created. 3  Separated the three governmental powers into: the legislative, executive and judicial branches.


Foraker Act
Foraker Act. The Foraker Act, Pub.L. 56â191, 31 Stat. 77, enacted April 12, 1900, officially known as the Organic Act of 1900, is a United States federal law that established civilian (albeit limited popular) government on the island of Puerto Rico, which had recently become a possession of the United States as a result of the SpanishâAmerican War.

Here's what Trump's tax plan means if you're making $25,000, $75,000, or $175,000 a year
Joint filers would deduct $24,400 under the House's plan or $24,000 under the Senate's plan â up from the current $20,800, which includes the standard deduction and two personal exemptions. But the House's tax plan does away with many deductions, which could increase federal taxes for Americans who itemize their deductions. Among those who do, the average claimed for 2014 was $27,447. The US does not have a flat tax â federal income taxes are calculated on a progressive basis


When Does The Tax Bill Go Into Effect? It'll Take Time To See Changes
The new bill proposes to get rid of the existing $4,050 exemption for families, spouses, and children. This means that millions of employees would need to re-sign W-4 forms in the new year, according to USAToday. Another aspect that won't be felt until 2019 is standard deduction for single and married taxpayers.


Why the GOP tax plan's big boost in the standard deduction won't be a windfall for some average Americans
The income levels for the new 12%, 25% and 35% brackets would determine how much taxes people pay on income not shielded by the standard deduction and are key to figuring out if they would be better off under the Republican plan.


Your Complete Guide to the 2018 Tax Changes
However, with the new $24,000 standard deduction for married couples, it would no longer be worth it to itemize. In fact, the Joint Committee on Taxation estimates that 94% of households will claim the standard deduction in 2018, up from about 70% now.


When Does The Tax Bill Go Into Effect? It'll Take Time To See Changes
Similarly, married couples won't use the $24,000 deduction, an increase from the existing $12,700, until they file in April 2018, for 2019. Regardless of when you see effects, the new tax bill includes tax cuts to nearly all seven tax brackets of income, according to Fortune.


The Biggest Tax Changes for the 2018 â New Income Brackets, Deductions and More
To go along with the new standard deduction rules some other deductions have been changed. One of the biggest changes is the elimination of state and local tax deductions. Previously, taxpayers could deduct any amount of tax they paid to the state they lived in from their income.


Ask The Taxgirl: Tax Reform Questions And Answers
When does the new law take effect? Taxgirl says: Assuming that the bill is signed into law as is (which looks like the case), the law would generally apply beginning in the 2018 tax year, meaning that the provisions take effect on January 1, 2018.


How tax reform will impact mortgage deductions
Under tax reform, the odds are overwhelming that most borrowers will not claim real estate deductions. Hereâs why: Under todayâs tax system, you can take either the standardized deduction or you can itemize. In 2017, the standard deduction for a married couple filing jointly is $12,700. This increase means that more people will take the standard deduction instead of itemizing, because it's bigger than their total deductions, including mortgage interest. The big print gives, the small print takes. Under the tax reform proposals, the standard deduction will jump to $24,000 for a married couple.

How to Replace a Bathroom Light Fixture
Flip the Switch. When the new light is fully connected and installed, make sure the wall switch is off. Flip the breaker that was turned off and make sure it stays on for at least 10 seconds before returning to the light. Test the light with the wall switch.


Ask Your Question
Depends entirely on how far the wires have to be pulled from, and access (unless you don't care about drywall holes). A new outlet (not sure if you are talking plug outlet or for a new light ? - I will assume that, since you also say light switch) has to have power pulled from a circuit with adequate available power rating for that use, and in some jurisdictions the electrical code prohibits pulling light circuit power from wall outlet circuits, so it may have to come from an adjacent room's lighting circuit or even the breaker box.

They would write a new Constitution. The outline of the new government was soon agreed to. It would have three branches â executive, judiciary, and a two-house legislature. A dispute arose over the legislative branch. States with large populations wanted representation in both houses of the legislature to be based on population. States with small populations wanted each state to have the same number of representatives, like under the Articles of Confederation. This argument carried on for two months. In the end, the delegates agreed to the âGreat Compromise.â One branch, the House of Representatives, would be based on population. The other, the Senate, would have two members from each state.

First Trimester: 0 weeksâ13 and 6/7 weeks (Months 1â3) Starts with the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP) and ends with the last day of the 13th week thereafter.
