Suppose you are analyzing the DNA from the polar bodies formed during human oogenesis. If the woman who produced the oocyte has a mutation in a known disease gene, would analyzing the polar body DNA allow you to infer whether the mutation is present in the mature oocyte? Explain.
You are interested in the expression of regions of the X chromosome at different times in human fetal development. You hypothesize that large regions of the X chromosomes will be expressed at times when parts of the reproductive organs are developing. What structural and chemical characteristics of the X chromosome might you look at over time to determine when expression of genes on the X chromosome is enhanced or repressed?
Identical twins each carry the same genome, but over time, can develop different phenotypes. How can you explain this?
In marsupials, X inactivation occurs exclusively to paternally derived chromosomes. Which genes will ALWAYS be expressed in this situation? A. maternal X-linked genes B. paternal X-linked genes C. maternal Y-linked genes D. paternal Y-linked genes
Why are multiple copies of the X chromosome tolerated? A. Genes on the X chromosome are not expressed during development. B. The extra copies of the X chromosome are inactivated. C. There are no genes on the X chromosome that are detrimental when present in multiple copies D. The X chromosome only encodes sex related genes
What does Germline DNA refers to?
A company that offers PGD terms an embryo “normal and healthy” if it has 46 chromosomes. Why is this statement misleading? , Two famous male actors had twins using a surrogate mother who carried two embryos that hadbeen fertilized in vitro, one with one man’s sperm and the other with the other man’s sperm. In terms of genetics, how closely are the babies, a boy and a girl, related to each other if they have different fathers?
How does X inactivation contribute to a person’s phenotype? a. It controls the number and kind of genes inherited on an X chromosome. b. It determines which X chromosome is expressed in a male. c. It allows for the expression of either the maternal or the paternal X in different cells. d. It enhances the expression of Y-linked genes in males.
“In an organism that reproduces asexually, there is no difference between a somatic cell mutation and a germ line mutation.” Is this statement true? Explain.
What type of genes regulate the development of anatomical segments and structures in an organism, directing the development of different body regions early in the organism's development? A. Homeotic genes B. Anatomical genes C. Allelic genes D. Methylated genes
Molecular geneticists have performed experiments in which they altered the number of copies of the bicoid gene in flies, affecting the amount of Bicoid protein produced. a. What would be the effect on development of an increased number of copies of the bicoid gene? b. What would be the effect of a decreased number of copies of bicoid? Justify your answers.
What evidence indicates that a trait is coded by a dominant allele on an autosome?
