If you have a recessive phenotype for a given trait, but neither of your parents has that phenotype, what can you say about the genotype of your parents for that trait? A) Both of your parents must be homozygous dominant B) Both of your parents have to be hetorozygous C) One of your parents might be homozygous dominant but the other has to be hetorozygous D) Both of your parents have to be homozygous recessive
Both of Ruth's parents have a round face, a dominant trait. Ruth, however, was born with a square face. What does Ruth's phenotype imply about her parents' genes? a. Ruth's parents are both heterozygous when it comes to their facial shape. b. When it comes to facial shape, Ruth's parents gave her one dominant gene and one recessive gene. c. Ruth's parents are both homozygous when it comes to their facial shape. d. Ruth's sister also has a square face.
Because red-green colour-blindness is an X-linked recessive condition, which of the following situations is not possible? a) a colourblind father passes the condition to this daughter b) a colourblind father passes the condition to his son c) a heterozygous mother passes the condition to her daughter d) a heterozygous mother passes the condition to her son Red-green colour blindness is a deficiency of colour vision so that a person affected by it cannot tell the difference between red and green. This is an X-linked recessive condition. Which statement is correct? a) The allele is written as X^r, and an affected female is heterozygous. b) The allele is written as X^r; an affected male is X^rY and a heterozygous female is X^RX^r c)The allele is written as X^r and a male with genotype X^RY is affected d) The allele is written as X^R; a normal male is X^RY and a homozygous recessive female is X^rX^r.
When crossing two fruit flies with red eyes, which is a dominant trait, half of the male offspring are born with white eyes, but none of the females are. What is this an example of? A. an autosomal recessive trait B. an autosomal dominant trait C. an X-linked recessive trait D. an X-linked dominant trait
One form of the bleeding disorder known as von Willebrand disease is an autosomal recessive disease. A man who is a carrier marries a woman who is also a carrier of the disease. (a) What percentage of their children are likely to have a disease phenotype? (b) What percentage of their children are likely to have a normal phenotype? (c) What percentage of their children are likely to be carriers of the disease?
When you decide to breed your Labrador retriever Molly and sell the puppies, you discover that two of Mollys four siblings have developed a hip disorder that is traceable to the action of a single recessive allele. Molly herself shows no sign of the disorder. If you breed Molly to a male Labrador that does not carry the recessive allele, can you assure a purchaser that the puppies will also be free of the condition? Explain your answer.
Fruit flies are very useful model organisms that have been used to study genetics. One mutant recessive trait in fruit flies is called "eyeless" because it causes flies to have no eyes. Cross an eyeless fly with a homozygous normal fly. a. Draw the Punnett square. b. What is the genotyoe ratio of the offspring? c. What is the phenotype ratio of the offspring? d. What genetic problem is this? (monohybrid, dihybrid or multiple allele)
Is it possible for a bald man and a nonbald woman to have a nonbald son and bald daughter? A. Yes, if the father is homozygous and the mother is heterozygous. B. Yes, if both parents are heterozygous. C. No, it is not possible. D. Yes, if the father is heterozygous and the mother is homozygous.
In a trait that follows Mendelian rules of inheritance, what is the only way an organism can have the recessive phenotype? A. By having the homozygous recessive genotype B. By being heterozygous for that genotype C. It is not possible to get the recessive phenotype in Mendelian genetics D. If one parent is homozygous recessive for that trait, any offspring are guaranteed the recessive phenotype E. By being homozygous dominant for that genotype
What was the hypothesis of the X-linked cross conducted in the lab (between white-eyed female and re-eyed male) with the white mutation in Drosophila and written up in your lab report? A All female offspring will inherit red eyes from their mother because the mutation is X linked recessi B All female offspring will inherit white eyes from their mother because the mutation is X linked recessive. C All male offspring will inherit white eyes from their mother because the mutation is X linked recessive. D All male offspring will inherit red eyes from their mother because the mutation is X linked recessive. E All male offspring will inherit white eyes from their mother because the mutation is X linked dominant.
A cross between a horse homozygous for red hair and a horse homozygous for white hair results in offspring with the coat colour called roan. When you look at the fur of the roan offspring you see both red and white hairs. What type of inheritance best explains this? a) blending inheritance b)codominance c)incomplete codominance d)multiple alleles
