- Figure 7.2 If a mutation occurs so that a fungus is no longer able to produce a minus mating type, will it still be able to reproduce? Figure 7.2 (a) In animals, sexually reproducing adults form haploid gametes from diploid germ cells. (b) Fungi, such as black bread mold (Rhizopus nigricans), have haploid-dominant life cycles. (c) Plants have a life cycle that alternates between a multicellular haploid organism and a multicellular diploid organism.

- In a karyotype of a man whose wife has had several miscarriages, it was discovered that he had onlv 45 chromosomes. However, he displayed no obvious phenotypic defects. Furthermore, one of the chromosomes of pair 15 was abnormally long. Which of the following terms best describes the condition of this man? a. monosomy b,. trisomy c. tetrasomy d. translocation carrier e. edward syndormeHi, could your please answer this question? I'm so confused. The following diagram (picture added) shows 2 pairs of autosomal chromosomes in a karyotype of a biological woman. Based on the karyotype, a genetic counselor determined that there is evidence that a translocation occurred between two non-homologous chromosomes. The other 21 pairs of chromosomes are NOT shown in this diagram. Assume no chromosomal aberrations occurred in the other chromosomes. As a student-researcher, what would be your answer if the genetic counselor asks you if you can determine whether the translocation occurred in a somatic cell, germ-line cell, or whether this can even be determined from the figure? provide the reasoning for your answer.In mice, 2n = 40. If a mouse cell divides by mitosis, it will produce two daughter cells that each have ________ chromosomes. If a mouse cell divides by meiosis, it will produce four daughter cells that each have ________ chromosomes. Type the appropriate number to fill in each blank (e.g., 40).
