The ABO blood type locus has been mapped on chromosome 9. A father who has type AB blood and a mother who has type O blood have a child with trisomy 9 and type A blood. Using this information, can you tell in which parent the nondisjunction occurred? Explain your answer
If the G locus were 50 or more map units from the centromere, what types and proportions of gametes would the F1 be expected to produce? Derive the expected F2 phenotypic ratio.
A human individual is phenotypically female, but her interphase somatic nuclei show the presence of 2 Barr bodies. (a) How many X-chromosomes would you expect to see in her karyotype? (b) Explain your answer. (c) How many chromosomes would you expect to find in this female’s karyotype?
In the haploid yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the twomating types are known as MATa and MATα. You cross apurple (ad-) strain of mating type a and a white (ad+)strain of mating type α. If ad- and ad+ are alleles of onegene, and a and α are alleles of an independently inherited gene on a separate chromosome pair, what progenydo you expect to obtain? In what proportions?
If the G locus were 50 or more map units from the centromere, what types and proportions of gametes would the Fl be expected to produce? Derive the expected F2 phenotypic ratio.
Let’s say we are crossing flies with a “big head” mutant trait with flies that have normal sized heads. If the mutant allele in this cross is a dominant, autosomal allele, when phenotype(s) should be present in the F1 of your cross, and what fraction of the F1 should each phenotype represent?
The ABO blood type locus has been mapped on chromosome 9. A father with blood genotype BO blood and amother with blood type AB blood have child with trisomy 9 and type B blood. can you tell in which parent the non-disjunction occurred?
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?
Hemophilia is another example of an X-linked disease caused when a recessive allele (Xh) is expressed. If a normal male reproduces with a heterozygous normal female, what are the expected genotypes and phenotypes? Will any of their daughters develop hemophilia?
