What is the result of True AND False OR True?
True AND False OR True evaluates to True. IT seems like it does not matter which is evaluated first as: (True AND False) OR True = False OR True = True True AND (False OR True) = True AND True = True But, it does matter as with False AND False OR True: (False AND False) OR True = False OR True = True False AND (False OR True) = False AND True = False and True OR False AND False: (True OR False) AND False = True AND False = False True OR (False AND False) = True OR False = True Evaluated left to right gives a different answer if the operators are reversed (as can be seen above), so AND and OR need an order of evaluation. AND can be replaced by multiply, OR by add, and BODMAS says multiply is evaluated before add; thus AND should be evaluated before OR - the C programming language follows this convention. This makes the original question: True AND False OR True = (True AND False) OR True = False OR True = True
The main goal of genetic engineering is to create oddities of science?
No - the main goal of genetic engineering - is to eliminate weaknesses in the subject organism. Example 1 - Creating a strain of wheat that is resistant to disease False A+ls - Awesomeness399 :P

Will a child with cystic fibrosis have liver problems?
No-False
True False Cystic fibrosis is caused by a mutation that is the dominant allele of a gene?
False. Cystic fibrosis is caused by a mutation in the CFTR gene, which is a recessive allele. An individual must inherit two copies of the mutated gene (one from each parent) to develop the condition.

Neonatal cystic fibrosis screening?
DefinitionNeonatal cystic fibrosis screening is a blood test that looks for increased levels of immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT), an enzyme produced by the pancreas. The test is performed on newborns to screen for cystic fibrosis (CF).Alternative NamesCystic fibrosis screening - neonatal; Immunoreactive trypsinogen; IRT testHow the test is performedA sample of blood is either taken from the bottom of the baby's foot of a vein in the arm. A tiny drop of blood is collected onto a piece of filter paper and allowed to dry. The dried blood sample is sent to a lab for analysis.How to prepare for the testThere is no special preparation needed.Some states include this test in the routine newborn screening tests that are done before the baby leaves the hospital.If you live in a state that does not perform routine CF screening, your health care provider will explain whether testing is needed.How the test will feelThe brief feeling of discomfort will probably cause your baby to cry.Why the test is performedChildren with CF who are diagnosed early in life and start treatment at a young age may have better nutrition, growth, and lung function. Newborn screening tests allow doctors to identify children with CF before they have symptoms.Normal ValuesNormal values vary from lab to lab. Ask your doctor or testing center for details.What abnormal results meanIt is important to remember that a positive screening test for cystic fibrosis does not diagnose cystic fibrosis. If your child's test is positive, further tests will be done to confirm the possibility of CF. Not all children with a positive screening IRT test have CF.What the risks areRisks associated with the test include:Infection (a slight risk any time the skin is broken)Anxiety over false positive testsFalse reassurance over false negative testsSpecial considerationsThe IRT level does not indicate the severity of the CF. False-positives may occur.ReferencesFarrell PM, Rosenstein BJ, White TB, et al. Guidelines for diagnosis of cystic fibrosis in newborns through older adults: Cystic fibrosis consensus report.

Should genetic screening be done if there are problems during the pregnancy?
Some people are against it while others are for it. Genetic screening can give a couple a choice to terminate pregnancy that has a fetus with genetic disease such as cystic fibrosis. If a child would be brought up with cystic fibrosis, the parents would have to constantly pay for treatment and support their child for his/her entire life. People with cystic fibrosis don't live very long so in this case genetic screening would be a good thing to carry out in order to prevent a life of suffer. However, ethical issues arise if you terminate pregnancy. It isn't right to destroy potential life. Besides that we have false negatives or false positives. The results carried out by genetic screening might be wrong. The tests might say the fetus does have the genetic disease while actually it might not carry it. This could cause the couple to terminate pregnancy even though the fetus was healthy. This would be a false positive. The tests might say that the child doesn't have a genetic disease. The couple would expect a healthy baby however would thenreceive one with a disorder. This would be called a false negative.Also, genetic screening might increase the risk of spontaneous abortion.Amniocentesis (a method of genetic screening) increases chances by around 1%. The tests would be carried out late in pregnancy, so the termination of results would be pretty traumatic for the couple.
