DRAW IT In this chapter, you read that bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) is an allohexaploid, containing two sets of chromosomes from each of three different parent species. Genetic analysis suggests that the three species pictured following this question each contributed chromosome sets to T. aestivum. (The capital letters here represent sets of chromosomes rather than individual genes.) Evidence also indicates that the first polyploidy event was a spontaneous hybridization of the early cultivated wheat species T. monococcum and a wild Triticum grass species. Based on this information, draw a diagram of one possible chain of events that could have produced the allohexaploid T. aestivum.

- The figure below shows three cells from the same diploid organism. Use this figure to answer the following question: What is the ploidy number of this organism in N-notation? B 500 K ******* O a. Hemiploid O b. 2n = 14 O c. n = 14 O d. 2n = 7 Oe. either c or d is correct C 1 points Save Answerarrow_forward. A geneticist working on a haploid fungus makes a cross between two slow-growing mutants called mossy and spider (referring to the abnormal appearance of the colonies). Tetrads from the cross are of three types (A, B, C), but two of them contain spores that do not germinate.Devise a model to explain these genetic results, and propose a molecular basis for your model.arrow_forwardVariations in chromosome structure are important for which of the following reason(s)?Question 5 options: A) evolution of new species B) may result in the production of abnormal offspring C) may alter the phenotype of an organism D) all of the answers are correctarrow_forward
- Can you answer all the parts to this diagram Species 1 and 2 are sister species from which you’ve cloned related genes. On the gene tree on the top of the next page, use labels to answer the following questions: (a) Label the node that represents a gene duplication with “D,” (b) Label the nodes that represent speciation events with “S,” (c) Pick a pair of genes that are paralogs and label them both “P.” (d) Pick a pair of genes that are orthologs and label them both “O.”arrow_forwardTelomere (ends) Centromere (middle) 2A 2B Chimpanzee Chromosomes Human Chromosome 2 What does the diagram tell us about the evolutionary history of humans and chimpanzees? Select all true statements. O Humans and chimpanzees have a different number of chromosomes and are therefore unrelated. Human chromosome number 2 is a fusion of chimpanzee chromosome 2A and 2B. Human and chimpanzees share a common ancestor. In the evolution of humans, a chromosome was lost.arrow_forwardAs we focused on linkage,chromosomal mapping, and many associated phenomena.In the pIn this chapter, we focused on linkage,chromosomal mapping, and many associated phenomena.In the process, we found many opportunities to consider themethods and reasoning by which much of this informationwas acquired.

- I need help with b, c, d the choices for c) are haploid, diploid or tetraploid the choices for d) are same chromosome, a pair of homologus chromosomes, or two different chromosomesarrow_forwardUse the following information as the basis for answering the question: A diploid eukaryotic organism has 4 unique chromosomes. Chromosome I is metacentric, chromosome II is telocentric, chromosome III is submetacentric, and chromosome IV is acrocentric. 1. Draw the chromosomes (just the chromosomes, not a cell...) described above as they would appear in a cell in G1 AND in G2, and label each chromosome (I, II, III, or IV) and label all parts (centromeres and telomeres) of one of the chromosomes. Use the letter p to indicate a paternal chromosome and m to indicate a maternal chromosomearrow_forwardYou are exploring the Amazon rainforests before it was completely destroyed. Particularly, you focus on a family of plants that are known to produce chemicals with great medicinal benefit. You sequenced the genomes of several related species and identified the gene, vge (à very good enzymea) responsible for the production of a potential anticancer drug. On the right is the schematic of the genomic region where the vge genes resides. You found that different species have different number of the vge genes. For example, the genome of spécies A (Sp. A) carries three copies of vge genes (vge-A, vge-B, and vge-C). Although they all encode the VGE enzyme and have the same function, their DNA sequences are not entirely identical to each other. Based on this observation, you can conclude that vge-A and vge-B are O orthologous to each other O paralogous to each other O analogous to each other O monophyletic to each other O None of the above Sp.

- . Imagine that you have done a cross between twostrains of yeast, one of which has the genotype A B Cand the other a b c, where the letters refer to threerather closely linked genes in the order given. Youexamine many tetrads resulting from this cross, andyou find two that do not contain the expected two Band two b spores. In tetrad I, the spores are A B C, AB C, a B c, and a b c. In tetrad II, the spores are A BC, A b c, a b C, and a b c. How have these unusualtetrads arisen?arrow_forwardThe theory of the endosymbiotic origin of mitochondria and chloroplasts was first proposed by the biologist Lynn Which of the following statements provides support for the theory of endosymbiosis? 1. All the genes found in chloroplasts are homologous to genes found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cell. 2. Mitochondria contain their own ribosomes. 3. Proteins need a targeting sequence to be imported into a chloroplast. 4. Mitochondria can generate a proton gradient and harness it to synthesize ATP. O A. 1, 2 and 3 B. 1 and 3 C. 2 and 4 D. 4 only E. All of 1, 2, 3 and 4 are correct.arrow_forwardIf a certain species has more chromosomes than another species, does that mean it has (1) more DNA? Explain. (2) more genes? Explain.arrow_forward
