Answer:
gotchu
Explanation:
1. His symptoms consist of difficulty walking and an abnormal gait (pattern of movement such as walking, running, etc)
2. a. one purpose of the blood test was to test his creatine kinase enzyme to see if there were any medical conditions connected to the way he was walking and why it was abnormal
b. the other purpose is to be sure that he has something wrong with his gait. If he does have a medical condition, it was best to see if he had it early on to treat it faster
3. the function of dystrophin gene connects to the cytoskeleton of a fiber which has to do with brain function; we need that to walk. For DMD, that is a condition that alters the way people walk.
4. DMD is inherited from family's genes, so he got it from his birth family probably from his dad's part of the family as DMD effects men more than women
5. It is pretty likely as this medical condition is inheritably passed on. It is likely that his grandchild will get DMD
6. To treat DMD to the best of the ability since there isnt a cure, they could participate in physical therapy and steroids
