Consider a situation where you have a parental cross with the mother and father phenotypes listed below. Remember that the genotype for the wild-type parent is always homozygous.   The counts of the F1offspring are listed in Table 1. Two randomly selected individuals are selected and mated to produce a set of F2individuals. If you test the F2counts to determine whether they are consistent with an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance, what is your decision? Use a 0.05 significance level.   PARENTAL CROSS

Question

Consider a situation where you have a parental cross with the mother and father phenotypes listed below. Remember that the genotype for the wild-type parent is always homozygous.

 

The counts of the F1offspring are listed in Table 1. Two randomly selected individuals are selected and mated to produce a set of F2individuals. If you test the F2counts to determine whether they are consistent with an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance, what is your decision? Use a 0.05 significance level.

 

PARENTAL CROSS

 

Parental cross: Mother with wild type phenotype, Father with disease phenotype.

 

Table 1. F1 DATA

 

Gender Phenotype
Disease Wild-type
Male 60 0
Female 65 0

 

 

 

Table 2. F2 DATA

 

Gender Phenotype
Disease Wild-type
Male 46 23
Female 41 15

 

 

A. Reject the null hypothesis that the F2 data are consistent with an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance; the p-value for the chi-square goodness of fit test < 0.05.

B. Do not reject the null hypothesis that the F2 data are consistent with an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance; chi-square goodness of fit test statistic value is between 1 and 10.

C. Reject the null hypothesis that the F2 data are consistent with an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance; the p-value for the chi-square goodness of fit test > 0.05.

D. Reject the null hypothesis that the F2 data are consistent with an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance; the true mode of inheritance is X-linked recessive.

E. Do not reject the null hypothesis that the F2 data are consistent with an autosomal dominant, homozygous lethal mode of inheritance; chi-square goodness of fit test p-value > 0.10.
