In C. elegans, lon-2 and unc-2 are recessive mutations that are 8 map units apart on the X chromosome. An hermaphrodite who is Lon and Unc is mated to a wild-type male. An F1 hermaphrodite is mated to a wild-type male. What are the expected percentages of the different phenotypes among the male progeny?

Chromosomal nondisjunction of the X chromosome in female gametes of humans means that live offspring can include ________. A) females with XX or XXX, and males with XY or XXY B) females with XX, and males with XY C) females with XX, and males with XY or XO D) females with XX or XXX, and males with XY or XO E) females with XX or XO, and males with XY or OY
Butterflies have an X-Y sex-determination system that is different from that of flies or humans. Female butterflies may be either XY or X0, while butterflies with two or more X chromosomes are males. This photograph shows a tiger swallowtail gynandromorph, which is half male (left side) and half female (right side). Given that the first division of the zygote divides the embryo into the future right and left halves of the butterfly, propose a hypothesis that explains how nondisjunction during the first mitosis might have produced this unusual-looking butterfly. Question is also in the picture.
What gametes, and in what frequencies, are produced by a female Drosophila of genotype A B / a b when the genes are present in the same chromosome and the frequency of recombination between the genes is 8 percent?
For each of the following chromosome complements, what is the phenotypic sex of a person who has a. XY with the SRY gene deleted? b. XX with a copy of the SRY gene on an autosomal chromosome? c. XO with a copy of the SRY gene on an autosomal chromosome? d. XXY with the SRY gene deleted? e. XXYY with one copy of the SRY gene deleted?
In tomatoes, red fruit is dominant to yellow fruit, and purple stems are dominant to green stems. Thegenes encoding these traits are on different homologous chromosomes. The progeny from a matingconsisted of 305 red fruit, purple stem plants; 328 red fruit, green stem plants; 110 yellow fruit,purple stem plants; and 97 yellow fruit, green stem plants. What would be the genotypic and phenotypic outcome if each parent was self-fertilized?
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
In diploid yeast strains, sporulation and subsequent meiosis can produce haploid ascospores, which may fuse to reestablish diploid cells. When ascospores from a segregational petite strain fuse with those of a normal wild-type strain, the diploid zygotes are all normal. Following meiosis, ascospores are petite and normal. Is the segregational petite phenotype inherited as a dominant or a recessive trait?
Human females have two X chromosomes (XX); males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY). a. With respect to X chromosome alleles, how many different types of gametes can a male produce? b. If a female is homozygous for an allele on an X chromosome, how many types of gametes can she produce with respect to that allele? c. If a female is heterozygous for an X chromosome allele, how many types of gametes can she produce with respect to that allele?
Table 8.1 shows that Turner syndrome occurs when an individual inherits one X chromosome but lacks a second sex chromosome. Can Turner syndrome be due to nondisjunction during oogenesis, spermatogenesis, or both? If a phenotypically normal couple has a color-blind child (due to a recessive X-linked allele) with Turner syndrome, did nondisjunction occur duringoogenesis or spermatogenesis in this child’s parents? Explain your answer.
In Drosophila, vermilion eye color is due to a recessive allele (v) located on the X chromosome. Curved wings are due to a recessive allele (cu) located on one autosome, and ebony body is due to a recessive allele (e) located on another autosome. A vermilion male is mated to a curved, ebony female, and the F1 males are phenotypically wild-type. If these males were backcrossed to curved, ebony females, what proportion of the F2 offspring will be wild-type males?
