. Which of the following inheritance patterns was observed, in the experiments of Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase, using the T2 bacteriophage of Escherichia coli? radioactive proteins were passed on to viral progeny, but not radioactive polynucleotides radioactive polynucleotides were passed on to viral progeny, but not radioactive proteins both radioactive proteins and radioactive polynucleotides were passed on to viral progeny both radioactive polynucleotides and radioactive proteins were passed on to viral progeny neither radioactive proteins nor radioactive polynucleotides were passed on to viral progeny The Hershey / Chase experiments (above) demonstrated that the T2 bacteriophage uses: phosphate-containing molecules for its genetic material, but not sulfur-containing molecules sulfur-containing molecules for its genetic material, but not phosphate-containing molecules both phosphate-containing and sulfur-containing molecules for its genetic material both sulfur-containing…
Scientists wanted to determine what molecule held the 'gene'. If they did a study in which a cell was infected by a virus, which part of the virus actually caused the infection inside the cell? Group of answer choices DNA ribosome protein RNA 2. When Mendel crossed in his P generation a yellow-seeded and green-seeded pea plants, all the offspring were yellow seeded. When he took these F1 yellow-seeded plants and crossed them with the original yellow-seeded plant from the P generation, what genotypic ratio was expected? Group of answer choices 1:2:1 3:1 1:1:1:1 1:1
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is sex linked and usuallyaffects only males. Victims of the disease become progressively weaker, starting early in life.a. What is the probability that a woman whose brotherhas Duchenne’s disease will have an affected child?b. If your mother’s brother (your uncle) had Duchenne’sdisease, what is the probability that you have receivedthe allele?c. If your father’s brother had the disease, what is theprobability that you have received the allele?
In classical Mendelian genetics, how can one check the genotype of a parent (A) expressing the characters of a dominant allele? Select one: a. By performing a back cross with a recessive homozygote parent (B). If the A parent is homozygote for the dominant allele, then all the individuals from the F1 will display the dominant character. If the parent A was, instead, a heterozygote, then 50% of the F1 progeny will express the recessive character (homozygote recessive) and 50% the dominant one (heterozygotes). b. It is impossible to check such genotype without using specific molecular assays. c. By performing a back cross with a dominant homozygote parent (B). If the A parent is homozygote for the dominant allele, then all the individuals from the F1 will display the dominant character.
In an attempt to breed winter barley that is resistant to barley mosaic virus, agricultural researchers cross a susceptible domesticated strain with a resistant wild strain. The F1 plants are all susceptible, but when the F1 plants are crossed with each other, some of the F2 individuals are resistant. Is the resistance allele recessive or dominant? (Note: susceptible means able to get the viral disease, while resistant means not able to get the disease) A) The resistance allele must be recessive B) The resistance allele must be dominant
The pedigree pictured is of an extended family where a large percentage of family members develop colon cancer at an early age. In this family, individuals either get colon cancer before the age of 16, or they don’t get it at all. a) Based on the information you have been given, what evidence, if any, suggests an inherited contribution to the development of this disease? b) You take a medical history of all 33 people in the pedigree and discover that a large percentage drink a special coffee on a daily basis, while others do not. The individuals who do not drink coffee are I-1, II-2, II-4, II-9, III-7, III-13, IV-1, and IV-3. Could drinking this special coffee play a role in colon cancer? Explain.

Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a disease that results from a recessive gene. Suppose that two unaffected parents produce a child with PKU. a. What is the probability that a sperm from the father will contain the PKU allele? b. What is the probability that an egg from the mother will contain the PKU allele? c. What is the probability that their next child will have PKU? d. What is the probability that their next child will be heterozygous for the PKU gene?
In yeast, the alleles for colony colour and tryptophan dependence are located on different chromosomes. But, if the alleles for colony colour and tryptophan dependence were closely linked on the same chromosome, inheritance of these traits _______follow Mendel’s Law of _______
In crosses between mutant mice, you find the following patterns in the genotype for the A locus containing alleles A1, A2, A3 and A4: What would be the best explanation for the inheritance and why?
In mice, the trait for high cholesterol is specified by a dominant allele designated HC, whereas the wild-type allele for normal cholesterol levels is designated hc. Black fur is specified by a recessive allele designated bl, whereas the wild-type allele which gives brown fur is designated BL. The genes for both of these traits are 30cM apart on the same autosome. A brown female (#1) with high cholesterol is mated to a black male (#2) with normal cholesterol. The progeny from this cross include a brown male (#3) with high cholesterol and a black female (#4) with normal cholesterol. What is the probability that the black mouse in the progeny of the first cross will also have high cholesterol?
What is the difference between a monohybrid cross and a dihybrid cross? A. A monohybrid cross involves a single parent, whereas a dihybrid cross involves two parents. B. A monohybrid cross produces a single progeny, whereas a dihybrid cross produces two progeny. C. A monohybrid cross involves organisms that are heterozygous for a single trait, whereas a dihybrid cross involves organisms that are heterozygous for two traits. D. A monohybrid cross is performed only once, whereas a dihybrid cross is performed twice.
