Genes A, B and C are on the same chromosome linked in cis (coupling) conformation. A is 13 cM from B, and B is 28 cM from C. The distance between A and C is 41 cM. The coefficient of coincidence is 0.45 for a trihybrid test cross. How many individuals with the genotype aaBbcc do you expect to see among the offspring of the cross if 1000 offspring are obtained? Please show your calculations and round your answer off to the nearest whole number.

- Select the true statements. (can be multiple). Sperm and egg cells are diploid, meaning that they have two copies of the human genome. Somatic cells are haploid, meaning that they have one copy of the human genome. Stem cells are haploid, meaning that they have one copy of the human genome.

However, the average length of linker DNA of the new organism is 100 bp. If the haploid genome of the new organism has a size 6 billion bp, how many nucleosomes will be in this new organism?arrow_forwardAnalyzing Karyotypes 1. Originally, karyotypic analysis relied only on size and centromere placement to identify chromosomes. Because many chromosomes are similar in size and centromere placement, the identification of individual chromosomes was difficult, and chromosomes were placed into eight groups, identified by the letters A to G. Today, each human chromosome can be readily identified. a. What technical advances led to this improvement in chromosome identification? b. List two ways this improvement can be implemented. c.

In mammals (and the fruit fly Drosophila), females have 2 X chromosomes and males have one X and one Y. The X and Y are an unusual pair of homologous chromosomes. The X is large and contains thousands of genes, while the Y is small and contains few genes. Most genes on the X are not found on the Y, so males possess only one copy of each X-linked gene and females have 2 copies. This means that X-linked recessive traits are expressed more often in males. Eye color is a sex-linked trait in Drosophila. The allele for red eyes is dominant to the allele for white eyes. Because this gene is on the X chromosome, the alleles are written as XR and Xr. A. Do a Punnett square for a cross between a homozygous red-eyed female (XR XR ) and a white-eyed male (Xr Y). What would be the genotypes of the female…arrow_forward
