A company that offers PGD terms an embryo “normal and healthy” if it has 46 chromosomes. Why is this statement misleading? , Two famous male actors had twins using a surrogate mother who carried two embryos that hadbeen fertilized in vitro, one with one man’s sperm and the other with the other man’s sperm. In terms of genetics, how closely are the babies, a boy and a girl, related to each other if they have different fathers?
Hello, please answer the following Biology question correctly based on the given answer choices. Please pick the correct "answer-letter"> Please just give the correct answer, I don't need an explanation. Thanks. Biology Question: "Based on the attached pedigree traces the appearance of a trait through a family. How is this trait inherited?" Answer Choice Options: A - through a recessive allele on the X chromosome B - through a recessive allele on an autosome C - through a dominant allele on an autosome
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an X-linked, recessive disorder in which muscles waste away early in life, resulting in death in the teens or twenties. A man and woman in their late thirties have five children—three boys (ages 1, 3, and 10 years) and two girls (ages 5 and 7 years). The oldest, boy shows symptoms of the disease. What are the probabilities that their other children will develop the disease? Give only typing answer with explanation and conclusion
Note: Don't copy from internet, Also answer correctly in terms of diploid, hemizygous, and carrier!! Thanks Explain why genetic disorders caused by recessive alleles of X-linked genes appear more frequently in males than in females? In your explanation, please include explanations of the following terms: diploid, hemizygous, carrier.
What is a Barr body? How many Barr bodies in a person with genotype XXXXX? How is the structure of a Barr body different from that of other chromosomes in the cell? How does the structure of a Barr body affect gene expression? Color-blindness is an X-linked recessive trait. Heterozygous females are not color blind but they can sometimes have partial color blindness. Explain how this can occur.
In fruit flies, eye color is carried on the X chromosome. The allele for red eyes is dominant over its recessive allele, white eyes. -Cross a heterozygous female to a white-eyed male 1st Question to answer ---- How many genotypes are possible among the offspring? 2nd Question to answer ---- How many phenotypes are possible among the offspring? 3rd Question to answer ---- What is the probability of getting a red-eyed male? 4th Question to answer ---- What is the probability of getting a white-eyed male? 5th Question to answer ---- What is the probability of getting a red-eyed female? 6th Question to answer ---- What is the probability of getting a white-eyed female? 7th Question to answer ---- What is the probability of getting a red-eyed offspring? 8th Question to answer ---- What is the probability of getting a white-eyed offspring?
A type of red-green colorblindness is inherited recessively on the X chromosome. A woman who is a carrier had children with a male that is not affected by the disease. Show your answers with the use of a Punnett square • What is the probability (% or likelihood) that a child is affected by the disease? • What is the probability (% or likelihood) that a son is a carrier? (Careful!) • Is there a chance that a girl of the couple is affected by the disease?
Red-green color blindness is inherited as an X-linked recessive (Xc). If a color-blind man marries a woman who is heterozygous for normal vision, what would be the expected phenotypes of their children with reference to this character? In your answer, specify in your phenotype descriptions the gender of the children. (For example, don’t just say 75% of the children would be colorblind – you would instead say 100 % of the daughters would be colorblind and 50% of the sons would be colorblind. Note that this is not a correct answer; it is just to give you an idea of how to explain the correct phenotypes of the cross.)___
Which of the following statements is false? Dosage compensation is accomplished in humans by stimulation of gene expression from the single X chromosome. Dosage compensation is accomplished in humans by inactivating a female X chomosome. An individual with Turner Syndrome has no Barr bodies. An individual with Klinefelter syndrome generally has one Barr body. A typical XX human female has one Barr body.
A stray pregnant female cat sneaks into your open bedroom window and has four kittens in your sock drawer (*true story of how my parents got cats!). Two of the kittens are female and have black fur. Another is male and has orange fur. A third female is calico. Fur color is X-linked. What are the phenotypes of the parents? Group of answer choices Female is calico, male is black Female is orange, male is black Female is calico, male is orange Female is black, male is orange
In grasshoppers, rosy body color is caused by a recessive mutation; the wild-type body color is green. If the gene for body color is on the X chromosome, what kind of progeny would be obtained from a mating between a homozygous rosy female and a hemizygous wild-type male? (In grasshoppers, females are XX and males are XO
Please answer fast Gene B codes for purple-colored flowers while the recessive form of the gene (b) results in pink-colored flowers. Another gene, A, when dominant, activates the transcription of gene B, resulting in purple or pink-colored flowers, while the recessive version of aa, results in white-colored flowers. A homozygous purple-colored flowering plant was crossed with a fully homozygous recessive white-colored flowering plant. The F1 flowering plants were self-crossed to generate the F2 generation. Determine the phenotypes and genotypes for each generation. Explain.
