This pedigree traces the inheritance of a trait in humans. Based on this pedigree, is the allele for this disease dominant or recessive? Is it sex-linked? Explain. What genotypes are most probable for the individuals labeled 4, 7, and 10?
Knowing that individuals who are homozygous for the GD allele show no symptoms of galactosemia, is it surprising that galactosemia is a recessive disease? Why?
The insulin-like growth factor 2 (Igf2) gene is imprinted and paternally expressed. Mice that express only a mutant version of the gene (igf2-) are born small (dwarf). If a geneticist crosses heterozygous female and male mice (Igf2 igf2-), what is the expected ratio of normal to dwarf mice among the offspring? Explain your answer.
To determine whether radiation associated with the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki produced recessive germ-line mutations, scientists examined the sex ratio of the children of the survivors of the blasts. Can you explain why an increase in germ-line mutations might be expected to alter the sex ratio?
Holstein cattle suffer from the condition citrullinemia, in which homozygous recessive calves die within a week of birth because they cannot break down ammonia that is produced when amino acids are metabolized. If a cow that is heterozygous for the citrullinemia gene is inseminated by a bull that is homozygous dominant, what is the probability that a calf inherits citrullinemia?
Can ypu answer ALL parts to this question Pigment of chicken feathers is regulated by two genes, the gene for feather pigment C, and a gene that inhibits pigment production, I. A mother chicken, who is heterozygous for gene c, and heterozygous for gene I, is crossed with a father chicken, who is homozygous recessive for the pigment gene, and heterozygous for gene I. Inhibition is dominant to uninhibited, pigmented feathers are dominant to unpigmented feathers. The inhibitor gene (I) will prevent expression of pigmented chicken feathers. Use the letters C, c, I, and i for the genes. C is for color and I is for inhibitor Enter your answer as a list of haplotypes separated by spaces such as AB ab Ab aB. Do not write a sentence. Do not list duplicate haplotypes. Alphabatize your haplotypes, e.g. Ab, not bA. A) What are the potential genotypes of the gametes produced by the mother for these two genes? B) What are the potential genotypes of the gametes produced by the father for…
The achoo syndrome (sneezing in response to bright light) and trembling chin (triggered by anxiety) are both dominant traits in humans.a. What is the probability that the first child of parents who are heterozygous for both the achoo gene and trembling chin will have achoo syndrome but lack the trembling chin?b. What is the probability that the first child will have neither achoo syndrome nor trembling chin?
Imagine that two unlinked autosomal genes with simple dominance code in goats for size, where L is large and l is small, and for color, where R is red and r is tan. If a small, tan male goat mates with a large, red female goat of an unknown genotype, what is the probability that they would produce small, tan offspring?
In humans, widow's peak (H) is dominant over a continuous hairline (h), and short fingers (F) are dominant over long fingers (f). Two heterozygous individuals with widow's peak and short fingers want to have a child with continuous hairline and long fingers. Is this possible?
You discover a new X-linked mutation for antenna shape in Drosophila (fruit flies) which produces long antennae. You call this new allele long (XL2), and discover it is incompletely dominant with the short antennae allele (XL1), so the heterozygotes (XL1XL2) have antennae that are intermediate in length (and XL2 homozygote females have long antennae). Males only have either long or short antennae. You cross a female with long antennae with a male with short antennae. What proportion of their male offspring do you expect to have short antennae? Group of answer choices 0.75 0.50 0 1.00 0.25
Normal pigmentation in humans is completely dominant to albinism. A couple who are both carriers for albinism decided to have children. a. Given that their first offspring normally pigmented, what is the probability that the child is a carrier? b. Considering the same genotypes of parents, what is the likelihood that three albino and two are normally pigments in a brood of five?
The achoo syndrome (sneezing in response to bright light) and trembling chin (triggered by anxiety) are both dominant traits in humans. A. What is the probability that the first child of parents heterozygous for both the achoo gene and trembling chin will have achoo syndrome but lack trembling chin? B. If the same couple decides to have five children what is the probability that at most three will have achoo syndrome? C. If the same couple decides to have five children what is the probability that at most three will have achoo syndrome?
