Chapter 16.3, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The observation in a pedigree analysis that suggests a dominant pattern of inheritance.
Introduction:
For understanding the inheritance pattern of human genetic diseases “Pedigree analysis” is considered the most effective tool and it follows a simple Mendelian pattern. Depending upon the characteristics of dominant and recessive disorders, the transmission of a disorder could be predicted through the pedigree.

Considering both of these traits jointly in self-fertilized dihybrids, the progeny appeared in the following numbers: 193 green, inflated 184 yellow constricted 556 yellow, inflated 61 green, constricted Do these genes assort independently?

Non-Mendelian Inheritance Quiz
Match each of the following examples to the appropriate type of non-Mendelian inheritance.
1. A homozygous recessive genotype for the gene that encodes phenylalanine hydroxylase
(which breaks down the amino acid phenylalanine) causes lighter skin color, a musty
odor, differences in intellectual development, and seizures.
2. In pea plants, alleles of Gene W control flower color, with the dominant allele (W)
leading to purple flower color, and the recessive allele (w) leading to white flower color.
Usually, a genotype of WW or Ww leads to purple flowers. However, when Gene C is
homozygous recessive, WW or Ww plants always have white flowers.
3. In mallard ducks, feather coloring is controlled by Gene F. A dominant allele (F) leads to
green head feathers, while a recessive allele (f) leads to brown head feathers. In male
mallards, inheritance of one or more F alleles always leads to the green head feather
trait. But female mallards always have brown head…

- Lab Exercises: In these exercises, you will learn to use the Punnett square to determine geno- typic and phenotypic outcomes for monohybrid, dihybrid, incomplete, codominant, epistatic, and sex-linked traits.

A heterozygous brown-eyed male has four children with his blue-eyed wife. What are the genotypes and phenotypes of the resulting offspring?

First, you list all possible gametes each parent and subsequent parents can produce. Second, you then assign the gametes to a Punnett square and fill it in. Finally, you count the progeny and determine the number of progeny in each phenotypic category. Remember, when determining the types of gametes possible, each gamete must have one member of each homologous pair of chromosomes. This means there needs to be one copy of every gene. For example, if you are considering a T gene (ability to taste PTC) and an F gene (let's say earwax texture- wet earwax is dominant and dry earwax is recessive), each gamete must have one allele for the T gene (either T or t) and one allele for the F gene (either For f).arrow_forwardClass 16 Activity: Dihybrid Crosses and Chi Square Analysis Objective: connect crosses using multiple genes to Punnett squares and probability 1.

- EXERCISE 5 MENDELIAN TRAITS IN HUMANS 1 While most human traits are polygenic, the traits in the chart below have traditionally been considered Mendelian traits. More recent research has disputed the single-gene nature of some of these traits, but for the purpose of this exercise, assume that the following traits are Mendelian. Work with a partner to help each other determine your own phenotypes and possible genotypes for these traits. Write your answers in the chart. (Note: Refer to the table on p. 62 for information about these traits.)

C.arrow_forwardLinked Genes While working with a type of beetle that is normally smooth and large, you discover two mutations that lead to the recessive phenotypes, bumpy and small, respectively. For the body type (i.e., smooth or bumpy) use S or s to designate the alleles. For the size (i.e., large or small) use L or l to designate the alleles. You cross two true-breeding parents to get all F1 beetles that are large and smooth. You cross the F1 to true-breeding small, bumpy beetles and get: 228 large and smooth, 19 small and smooth, 16 large and bumpy, 237 small and bumpy. What were the genotypes and phenotypes of the two parental beetles (P generation)? Calculate the distance in cM between the S and L genes, using the information from the cross above. Now draw a linear genetic map of these two genes. Another gene for beetle body color, gene W, is found to be 5 cM from the S gene. Indicate the TWO places where this gene may fall in relation to the other two genes on the linear genetic map…arrow_forward
