When making a genetic map, which of the following is true about the accuracy of genetic distances? Largest distances are the most accurate. Smallest distances are the most accurate. The accuracy of distances is independent of the magnitude of the distances The accuracy of the distances is dependent on the cross-over interference.

Hemophilia and color blindness are both recessive conditions caused by genes on the X chromosome. To calculate the recombination frequency between the two genes, you draw a large number of pedigrees that include grandfathers with both hemophilia and color blindness, their daughters (who presumably have one chromosome with two normal alleles and one chromosome with two mutant alleles), and the daughters sons. Analyzing all the pedigrees together shows that 25 grandsons have both color blindness and hemophilia, 24 have neither of the traits, 1 has color blindness only, and 1 has hemophilia only. How many centimorgans (map units) separate the hemophilia locus from the locus for color blindness?
You are attempting to genotype a series of cells at gene A through restriction enzyme digestion. You know that the wild type allele “A” has 2 restriction enzyme cutting sites, creating bands that are 100bp, 200bp, and 300bp. A mutation creating allele “a” removes one of these cutting sites, creating bands that are 100bp and 500bp. How many separate bands would you expect to see on a gel for a cell that is heterozygous Aa? please show work. thanks
Gene mapping is often used to predict genetic traits that can be passed on, but what exactly does it map? A. Genes on a chromosome B.Genes in the brain C. Genes in the cell D. Genes in the nucleus
You have already localized the genes to the same chromosome by deletion mapping, and now decide that the best way to accomplish the mapping is to conduct two simultaneous three-point testcross experiments. The genes you are investigating are as follows: N = round leaves, n = notched leaves; H = smooth stems, h = hairy stems; R = purple flowers, r = red flowers; B = grey seeds, b = black seeds; and Y = green pods, y = yellow pods. Earlier experiments you have done already established that gene B is in the middle of this gene cluster, so you design both three-point test crosses to include that gene. Cross #1 is designed as RrHhBb x rrhhbb while cross #2 is NnBbYy x nnbbyy. The results of both crosses are given in the table below. Based on the information given, determine the arrangement of these five genes including the position of each allele in the heterozygous fly and the distances between each pair of genes. (Hint: treat each experiment separately, knowing that gene B is in the…
2. You are making a genetic map and use a cross to measure the distance between genes H and J as 40cMand the distance between J and M as 20cM. When you measure the distance between genes H and M, you get 50 cM. Do the following (A-C). (A) Draw and label a map of genes H, J, and M. (B) What is the genetic distance between genes H and M? How do you know? (Answer in 1 sentence) (C) Complete the table (right). For each pair of genes, write “yes” or “no” to indicate whether the pair of genes are“linked genes” and/orpart of the same“linkage group”.
