Analysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits The father of 12 children begins to show symptoms of Huntington disease. a. What is the probability that Sam, the mans second-oldest son (II-2), will suffer from the disease if he lives a normal life span? (Sams mother and her ancestors do not have the disease.) b. Can you infer anything about the presence of the disease in Sams paternal grandparents?
A heterozygous pea plant produces violet flowers and yellow, round seeds. Describe the expected genotypes of the gametes produced by Mendelian inheritance. If all three genes are found on the same arm of one chromosome should a scientist predict that inheritance patterns will follow Mendelian genetics?
Analysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits In the following pedigree, assume that the father of the proband is homozygous for a rare trait. What pattern of inheritance is consistent with this pedigree? In particular, explain the phenotype of the proband.
Analysis of X-Linked Dominant and Recessive Traits Suppose a couple, both phenotypically normal, have two children: one unaffected daughter and one son affected with a genetic disorder. The phenotype ratio is 1:1, making it difficult to determine whether the trait is autosomal or X-linked. With your knowledge of genetics, what are the genotypes of the parents and children in the autosomal case? In the X-linked case?
The gene for flower position in pea plants exists as axial or terminal alleles. Given that axial is dominant to terminal, list all of the possible F1 and F2 genotypes and phenotypes from a cross involving parents that are homozygous for each trait. Express genotypes with conventional genetic abbreviations.
Analysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits a. What pattern of inheritance is suggested by the following pedigree? b. For genotype assignment, assume that the pedigree is for an autosomal dominant trait and that the affected male in the first generation is heterozygous. Assign genotypes to all other individuals in the pedigree.
3)Mendel found that crossing wrinkle-seeded (rr) plants with homozygous round-seeded(RR) plants produced only round-seeded plants. What genotype ratio and phenotyperatio can be expected from a cross between a wrinkle-seeded plant and a heterozygousplant for this characteristic?
Question:- Based on your selected mode of inheritance, show the genotypes for the following individuals. [Use these symbols for alleles: if it is autosomal, then use the symbols B - dominant, b - recessive (e.g. BB, bb etc.) if it is X-Linked, then X(B) - dominant, X(b) - recessive, and Y for Y-chromosome (e.g. X(B)X(B), X(B)Y etc.) ] I-1 I-2 II-7 II-8 III-10 III-11 III-12 IV-8 IV-9
1. In humans, widow’s peak (W) is dominant over having a straight hairline (w).
