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.
The following pedigree follows the inheritance of myopia (nearsightedness) in humans. Predict whether the disorder is inherited as a dominant or a recessive trait. Based on your prediction, indicate the most probable genotype for each individual.

Analysis of X-Linked Dominant and Recessive Traits The X and Y chromosomes are structurally and genetically distinct. However, they do pair during meiosis at a small region near the tips of their short arms, indicating that the chromosomes are homologous in this region. If a gene lies in this region, will its pattern of transmission be more like that of a sex-linked gene or an autosomal gene? Why?
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?
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.
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?
IPSCs are nearly identical to human embryonic stem cells in terms of gene expression, but there may be other ways in which they are not equivalent. For example, the telomeres of IPSCs often vary in length, with many IPSCs cells having telomeres shorter than those of embryonic. How might shortened telomeres affect the life-span of IPSCs or of differentiated cells derived from them?
Question: Suppose the progeny were crossed. Fill in the Punnett Squares below and answer the following questions. Seed Color Seed Shape R r A a In a pea plant experiment, the allele (R) producing yellow seed color is dominant, and the allele (r) producing green seed color is recessive. A homozygous recessive genotype would produce green seeds. Similarly, the allele (A) producing round seed shape is dominant to the allele (a) that produces wrinkled seed shape. A homozygous recessive genotype would produce wrinkled seeds. Both traits sort independently of each other. Given a pure-breeding cross between a round, green pea plant and a wrinkled yellow plant, complete the rest of the Punnett Squares below, and answer the following questions. R R A A RA Ra Ra ra
TOPIC: Variations in Gene Expression In a cross involving polygenic inheritance, three (3) gene pairs control plant height. The shortest and tallest plants are 12 cm and 24 cm, respectively. What height should all F1s display if the shortest and tallest plants were crossed, assuming environmental factors are the same
Gene Interaction and Epistasis Hair color is due to the presence of melanin. There are two types of melanin produced by melanocytes. One is eumelanin, which is responsible for black (homozygous), brown (heterozygous), and blond (recessive) hair colors. The other is pheomelanin, which is responsible for red hair color. During melanin synthesis, MCR1gene converts pheomelanin to eumelanin. However, a variant of the MCR1 gene (MCR1variant), prevents this conversion. A cross between a blond-haired mother and a red-haired father produced 100% brown-haired children. When they came of age, one child married a double heterozygote, and both were blessed with 7 children; 2 with black hair, 2 with brown hair, 1 with blond hair, and 2 with red hair. Using the 7-step method, determine the genotypes of the P1, the F1, and the F2s. BOX your answers (if handwritten) or HIGHLIGHT your answers (if encoded).
