- Codominance in blood types. If a male with type A blood (with genotype IAi) mates with a female having type B blood (with genotype IBi), what are the phenotypic ratios for the blood types of the offspring? ___ A : ___ B : ___ AB : ____ O Suppose that one parent has type AB blood, and the blood type of the other parent is not known. Describe how a child can (or cannot) have the following blood types: Type A Type B Type AB Type OMeasuring Genetic Diversity in Human Populations Why is it that mutation, acting alone, has little effect on gene frequency?to only 23 rounds for a woman of age 20. That is a 6.5-fold greater number of cell divisions and proportionately greater opportunity for new point mutations. Yet, on average, 20-year-old men contribute only about twice as many new point mutations to their offspring as do women. How can you explain this discrepancy?
- 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?genetics question please explain We know that multiple genes (some with many different alleles) contribute to skin color, but genes alone donot account for the diversity of pigmentation we see among humans; environmental factors play a role. b) Propose an explanation for how one of these factors could alter the expression of skin color genes.Solving complex genetic problems with the rules of probability (3 traits) 1. Calculate the probability of getting an offspring of pea plant with the genotype, PpyyRr, when crossing PpYyRr and ppyyrr. Show your work. 2. States the phenotypes of the parents and offspring.
- 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.Recessive epistasis: In a cross between fruit flies that are both double heterozygous for modifier gene and coat color, in the total offspring of 192, how many fruit flies have gray- coat, white coat, and black coat? A recessive allele blocks the expression of the coat color of fruit flies. Show your answer and solution.Question In gerbils, the gene that specifies coat color is sex‑linked and has multiple alleles, as follows: B ‑ black, br ‑ brown, by ‑ yellow, and b ‑ albino. The allele br is incompletely dominant over by, the combination br by giving tan color; otherwise, dominance is in the order given ‑‑ B, br, by, b. (For your information, gerbils are mammals.) A black gerbil mated with a yellow gerbil gave one brown male and one black female offspring. What is the sex of the black parent? What is the genotype of the brown offspring? If the two offspring were to mate with each other, what is the probability that they will have a yellow offspring?
- 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.
