- You are working with a new species of spider in the lab. Wild type spiders have black legs and long mandibles. Mutants have black/brown striped legs and short mandibles. You perform a cross between wild type and mutant spiders. Your results : 5,502 wild type; 5,877 mutant; 69 black/brown striped, long mandibles; 52 black, short mandibles. What information does the recombination frequency tell you about the traits? (You will need to solve the RF first if you haven't done so in the other problem.) * A. Crossing over occurs frequently between the two traits. B. They are unlinked genes. C. They are located on separate chromosomes D. They are located very close together on the same chromosome.arrow_forwardThe table below shows the progeny of a test cross of a heterozygote (JjBbRr). Each row shows the number of progeny that inherited each combination of alleles from the heterozygous parent. You've already determined the gene order (B is in the middle) and labeled each type of progeny. Using this information, what is the recombination frequency between J and B?

- What does it mean when an individual is found to be “homozygous” at a DNA profiling locus? They have three alleles at the locus They got different alleles from their mother and father They got the same alleles from their mother and father Their children got two alleles from them Their children got no alleles from themarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is TRUE? Positive interference occurs when a crossover in one region of a chromosome interferes with crossovers in nearby regions. The higher the coefficient of coincidence, the higher the degree of interference. Linked genes always exhibit recombination frequencies of greater than 50%. Two genes that are located far from each other on the same chromosome will show a lower frequency of recombination than two genes that are close together on the chromosome. Recombination mapping experiments become more accurate as the distance between genes increases.arrow_forwardWhich of the following scenarios would erroneously lead you to believe two genes reside on different chromosomes when they in fact are on the same chromosome? a mating between consanguineous individuals too large a sample size the genes are very close together on the chromosome, such that there is never a crossover between them the genes are very far apart on the same chromosome, such that there is always a crossover between them 5. the genes are very far apart on the same chromosome, such that there is never a crossover between themarrow_forward

Consider a Cannabis strain with three genes (called gene 1, gene 2 and gene 3) that are on different chromosomes and assort independently. Each gene has two alleles, described below: The T allele for gene 1 is dominant and associated with the trait of producing large amounts of terpenes, and the t allele is recessive and associated with the trait of producing a low amount of terpenes The S allele for gene 2 is dominant and associated with the trait of fast growth, and the s allele is associated with the trait of slow growth The F allele for gene 3 is associated with the trait of producing large flowers, and the f allele is associated with the trait of producing small flowers Assume that an individual plant that is heterozygous for genes 1 and 2, but homozygous ff for gene 3 self-fertilizes.

This phenotype is due to the absence of melanin, which imparts color to the skin, hair, and eyes. It typically is caused by a recessive allele.

Both parents have normal phenotypes; some of their children are albino and others are not. b. Both parents and all their children are albino. c. The mother is not albino, the father is albino, and one of their four children is albino.arrow_forward
