- An individual heterozygous for a reciprocal translocation possesses the following chromosomes: A B • C D E F G A B • C D V W X R S • T U E F G R S • T U V W X a. Draw the pairing arrangement of these chromosomes in prophase I of meiosis. b. Diagram the alternate, adjacent-1, and adjacent-2 segregation patterns in anaphase I of meiosis. c. Give the products that result from alternate, adjacent-1, and adjacent-2 segregation.arrow_forwardA sexually reproducing organism has the following phenotype DdEeAaTt: The D and E loci are on the same arm of a metacentric chromosome in cis configuration. The A locus is on the long arm of an acrocentric chromosome and the T locus is on a telocentric chromosome. There are no other chromosomes. 1. What is the haploid number of this organism? 2. Using diagrams, show a cell at metaphase of mitosis and show the results of mitosis. Ensure you show the location of the gene loci on the different chromosomes.arrow_forwardAn inversion heterozygote has the following inverted chromosome: Centromere ca a a A B CD JI HGF E, KL M Inverted region If a crossover occurred between genes H and I on one inverted and one normal chromosome, what would be the sequence of the dicentric chromosome before completion of metaphase I?

- Consider a cell with 2 pairs of homologous chromosomes where Chromosome 1 with genes VWXYZ is the homolog of Chromosome 2 with genes vwxyz while Chromosome 3 with genes PQRST is the homolog of Chromosome 4 with genes parst. If a reciprocal translocation occurred between Chromosome 1 YZ genes and Chromosome 3 ST genes, give the following gamete types produced after meiosis: (Answer in Arabic numbers only) 1. Gamete/s with non-recombinant chromosomes 2. Gamete/s with 1 recombinant chromosome 3. Gamete/s with 2 recombinant chromosomes 4. Gamete/s with gene duplications 5. Gamete/s with gene deletions 6. Gamete/s with 2 normal chromosome sequences 7. Gamete/s with 1 normal chromosome sequence 8. Gamete/s with balanced translocation 9. Gametes/ with all dominant genes 10. Gamete/s with all recessive genes 11. Gamete/s with 10 different genes 12. Gamete/s with TSXWV genes 13. Gamete/s with vwxyz genes 14.

Answer the following question for each of the photomicrographs: Identify the cytogenetic abnormality observed (ex. ring, chain, laggard, bridge). Identify the meiotic stage in which these aberrations are observed (as shown in the photomicrograph). Explain how these aberrations are formed and relate to the possible causal mutation(s). Will this result to sterile and/or fertile gametes? Explain.arrow_forwardin the experiment of following chromosomal dna mvement througgh meiosis, why. do you use non-sister chromatids to demobstrate crossing over? what combinatiobns of alleles could result from a crossover between BD and bd chromosomes? Identify two ways that meiosis contributes to genetic recombination. Why is it necessary to reduce the number of chromosomes in gametes, but not in other cell?arrow_forward
- An individual has the following reciprocal translocation: I - SKLM CDE CDE H B B H M e. What is the name of the structure formed during meiosis, as the chromosomes attempt to synapse? f. What would be the outcome of alternate segregation? g. What would be the outcome of adjacent-1 segregation? h. What would be the outcome of adjacent-2 segregation?| (NOTE: A-B--C-D-E or A-B-O-C-D-E are acceptable formats for chromosome structure)arrow_forwardDuring a practical, a group of biology students are tasked to study the cell cycle of an insect. This insect has the karyotype 2n=6, with genotype Ff Gg Hh KK. The students must draw a cell at the end of telophase of mitosis, using red lines for maternal chromosomes, blue lines for paternal chromosomes and black dots to represent centromeres. The drawing provided by the students is shown below. kt a) Identify three mistakes the students made when producing this diagram. In your answer only refer to elements already present in the figure. b) This fly is used in a testcross. What is the probability of producing a fly with genotype ff Gg hh Kk?arrow_forwardUSING TWO DIFFERENT COLORS TO SIGNIFY THE MATERNAL AND PATERNAL CHROMOSOMES, DRAW THE RESPECTIVE CELLS IN EACH LABELED PHASE OF MITOSIS AND MEIOSIS. THE CHROMOSOME NUMBER WILL BE "4" AND SHOULD BE REPRESENTED AS TWO HOMOLOGOUS PAIRS. MAKE SURE YOU USE TWO DIFFERENT SIZES FOR EACH OF THE PAIRS. BELOW EACH PHASE, BRIEFLY DESCRIBE WHAT HAPPENS.

The F1 plants express all the dominant allelesand, when backcrossed to the recessive parent, give thefollowing progeny phenotypes:colored, green, starchy, smooth, tall 360white, bronze, waxy, shrunk, dwarf 355colored, bronze, waxy, shrunk, dwarf 40white, green, starchy, smooth, tall 46colored, green, starchy, smooth, dwarf 85white, bronze, waxy, shrunk, tall 84colored, bronze, waxy, shrunk, tall 8white, green, starchy, smooth, dwarf 9colored, green, waxy, smooth,…arrow_forwardA line of mouse cells is grown for many generations in a medium with 15N. Cells in G1 are then switched to a new medium that contains 14N. Draw a pair of homologous chromosomes from these cells at the following stages, showing the two strands of DNA molecules found in the chromosomes. Use different colors to represent strands with 14N and 15N. Q. Cells in metaphase I of meiosis, after switching to medium with 14Narrow_forwardA diploid cell has 15 picograms of DNA in G₁ phase.
