The STR DNA marker DS11 is located on the p arm of the chromosome #8 in humans. Molecular analysis has shown that Charlie Chaplin is a heterozygote for the STR marker (genotype DS11A and DS11B) Using this knowledge, provide a diagram of meiosis showing only the movements of chromosome 8 (assume no nondisjunction). Throughout, indicate where the marker may be found (in other words, label the chromosome to show where the STR markers can be found. please only show the chromosomes at interphase, metaphase 1, end of meiosis 1, metaphase 2, and end of meiosis 2.

Analyzing Karyotypes 1. Originally, karyotypic analysis relied only on size and centromere placement to identify chromosomes. Because many chromosomes are similar in size and centromere placement, the identification of individual chromosomes was difficult, and chromosomes were placed into eight groups, identified by the letters A to G. Today, each human chromosome can be readily identified. a. What technical advances led to this improvement in chromosome identification? b. List two ways this improvement can be implemented. c. What clinical information does a karyotype provide?
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?
Need help. Knowing that the Curly leaf (Cy) is a dominant gene on chromosome 6, as it is useful in tracking other genes using trisomics for chromosome 6. Assume a Cy Cy cy plant used as a pollen parent where disomic pollen does not function crossed to a Cy cy cy female where disomic eggs do function. A) What ratio would be predicted in the progeny of this cross? B) What if the reciprocal cross was made?
At the end of Meiosis II in human cells (specifically in males, for example), how many gametes are made from one original parent cell, how many chromosomes are in each gamete, and what is each chromosome made of (that is, if you compared, say, chromosome #1 in a gamete with the two #1 chromosomes the person inherited from his parents)?
The STR DNA marker DS11 is located on the p arm of the chromosome #8 in humans. Molecular analysis has shown that Charlie Chaplin is a heterozygote for the STR marker (genotype DS11A and DS11B) Using this knowledge, provide a diagram of meiosis showing only the movements of chromosome 8 (assume no nondisjunction). Throughout, indicate where the marker may be found (in other words, label the chromosome to show where the STR markers can be found. (Show ONLY the chromosomes at interphase, metaphase 1, end of meiosis 1, metaphase 2, and end of meiosis 2). Suppose Charlie conceived a son with a chromosome 8 trisomy. Molecular analysis of the STR DS11 marker revealed that his son carried two copies of the DS11A marker and a DS11C marker. Based on the data, determine if the nondisjunction occurred in Charlie or in the mother? Provide your reasoning.

GENETICS In a sexually reproducing diploid organism in which 2n=6, a normal meiocyte in reduction should exhibit a total of 3 bivalents at the metaphase plate. Consider the following organism in the previous statement. if there is no crossing over, the number of possible haploids (gamete) genotypes generated by "chromosome shuffling" during meiosis is _____?
no need to explain i just need help if its a,b,c or d. 1.) The number of sister chromatids in a chromosome at metaphase is a.) two in mitosis and one in meiosis b.) one in mitosis and two in meiosis c.) two in mitosis and two in meiosis d.) two in mitosis and four in meiosis 2.) In a Mendelian monohybrid cross with dominance, which answer represents the convention used to assign letters to form a genotype? a.) The dominant trait is represented by an uppercase letter, while the recessive trait is represented by lowercase of the same letter. b.) The dominant trait is represented by a lowercase letter, while the recessive trait is represented by uppercase of the same letter. c.) Both traits are expressed by uppercase letters. d.) Both traits are expressed by lowercase letters. 3.) A gene with more than two alleles is said to have multiple alleles. In humans a single gene with multiple alleles determines a person’s blood type. If an individual with blood type A mates with a person who…
Meiosis DrawingIn this assignment you will track and draw the chromosomes of a diploid organism through all the stages of meiosis. Make sure you label the alleles for genes on the chromosomes the whole way through - every chromatid should have labeled alleles. For meiosis, both crossing over and independent assortment can occur. For the purpose of this exercise, assume that there is a single crossover event on the long chromosome between the A and D genes. Only show crossing over after its fully occured. There are no crossover events on the short chromosome. Regarding independent assortment, there are two possible outcomes in meiosis if there are two homologous pairs of chromsomes. Include both independent assortment possibilities - one on the left side and one on the right. Fill in the possible gamete genotypes for each outcome. If you do this correctly you should end up with 8 different types of gametes. Image attached for genotypes and alleles. Give me a full explaination of each of…

Based on the attached image, identify the stage at which each cell is in and draw an animal cell with a diploid chromosome number of 6. Indicate maternally- & paternally-derived chromosomes as red and blue, respectively, in your diagram. You do not need to indicate any crossing over. Be sure to include any of the indicated labels. On your diagram, indicate the # of chromosomes and # of homologous pairs in the stage of meiosis I (attached image), whether they are duplicated or not, and whether the cell has an n, 2n, or 4n complement of chromosomes. Also label homologous chromosomes, nonsister chromatids, and kinetochore microtubules.
