1. a) If you were at risk of a fatal disease such as Huntington’s disease and only the 95% accurate preliminary genetic test was available, would you take the test? After all, 95% of the time the test would tell you whether you would eventually get Huntington’s disease or whether you did not have to worry about getting this disease. b) The linkage distance between the DNA sequence used in the test and the actual Huntington’ disease locus was 5%. In a large sample of the Venezuelan family, what percentage of people would inherit the DNA sequence but not the Huntington’s allele (i.e. be a false positive test for Huntington’s)? What percentage of that large Venezuelan family would not inherit the DNA sequence but would inherit the Huntington’s allele (i.e., be a false negative test for Huntington’s)?
7. Mr. and Mrs. Weasley have 7 children and all of the children have red hair like their parents. Mrs. Weasley has brown eyes but Mr. Weasley's eye color is unknown. Four of their 7 children have blue eyes and three have brown eyes. a. I Mr. Weasley's eye color is blue, what must be Mrs. Weasley's genotype? Explain how you arrive at your answer. Draw a Punnett square to support your answer. Explanation
1. What is an open-ended question about how traits exist in families and the importance of the genotype and phenotype of traits? This can be anything related to genetics. 2. Explain why it is an important question to ask.
Choose the statement that is incorrect. a. A son can inherit a recessive allele on an X chromosome from either parent. b. An individual may inherit three or more of each type of chromosome characteristic or the species, a condition called polyploidy. c. A female child inherits one X chromosome from her mother and one from her father. d. Pedigree analysis can be used to determine a future childs chance of being born with achcondroplasia.
Some recessive alleles have such a detrimental effect that they are lethal when present in both chromosomes of a pair. Homozygous recessives cannot survive and die at some point during embryonic development. Suppose that the allele r is lethal in the homozygous rr condition. What genotypic ratios would you expect among the living offspring of the following crosses? a. RRRr b. RrRr
The phenotype of individuals heterozygous for ________ alleles comprises both homozygous phenotypes. a. epistatic b. codominant c. pleiotropic d. hybrid
The observable traits expressed by an organism are described as its. phenotype genotype alleles zygote
The phenotype of individuals heterozygous for ________ alleles comprises both homozygous phenotypes. a. epistatic b. codominant c. pleiotropic d. hybrid
A testcross is a way to determine ________. a. phenotype b. genotype c. dominance
4. Define the following terms:A. genotype B. phenotype C. monohybrid D. dihybrid5. Distinguish other principles in genetics that do not follow Mendel’s law
2. Null mutations are valuable genetic resources becausethey allow a researcher to determine what happens to anorganism in the complete absence of a particular protein. However, it is often not a trivial matter to determinewhether a mutation represents the null state of the gene.a. Geneticists sometimes use the following test forthe nullness of an allele in a diploid organism: If theabnormal phenotype seen in a homozygote for theallele is identical to that seen in a heterozygote(where one chromosome carries the allele in question and the homologous chromosome is known tobe completely deleted for the gene) then the alleleis null. What is the underlying rationale for thistest? What limitations might there be in interpreting such a result?
