Textbook Question
Chapter 16, Problem 3P
Genetic maps and physical maps are both representations of a genome.
What are the similarities and differences between howgenetic and physical maps are created?
If genetic maps of a particular organism are independently constructed in two different laboratories, willthey be identical? What about two independently constructed physical maps?
How can the information in genetic and physical mapsbe combined?

A study of three generations in a family of a male colleague of the authors indicated that many of the man's blood relatives had died of cardiovascular accidents and coronary heart disease. Others died of other causes but were affected by high blood pressure. What are the implications of this information for the man in question?
b. What information and help might a genetic counselor provide?
Explain, at the molecular level, why human genetic diseases oftenfollow a simple Mendelian pattern of inheritance, whereas mostnormal traits, such as the shape of your nose or the size of yourhead, are governed by multiple gene interactions.
Based on Figure 17-30, are normal genomes ever formedfrom the two types of segregation? Are normal genomesever formed from an adjacent-1 segregation?

- You are a gene hunter, trying to find the genetic basis for a rare inherited disease. Examination of six pedigrees of families affected by the disease provides inconsistent results. For two of the families, the disease is co-inherited with markers on chromosome 7. For the other four families, the disease is co-inherited with markers on chromosome 12. Explain how this difference might have arisen.arrow_forwardOn an episode of the science fiction television program Doctor Who, the “Progenation Machine” can take a tissue sample from an individual, duplicate all their chromosomes many times, then assemble a new individual with a complete set of homologous pairs by randomly selecting two of each set of chromosomes.
