- Need help with the diagram The STR DNA marker DS11 is located on the p arm of the chromosome #8 in humans. Molecular analysis has shown that Charlie Chaplin is a heterozygote for the STR marker (genotype DS11A and DS11B) Using this knowledge, provide a diagram of meiosis showing only the movements of chromosome 8 (assume no nondisjunction). Throughout, indicate where the marker may be found (in other words, label the chromosome to show where the STR markers can be found. please only show the chromosomes at interphase, metaphase 1, end of meiosis 1, metaphase 2, and end of meiosis 2.arrow_forwardEqualizing the Expression of X Chromosome Genes in Males and Females Individuals with an XXY genotype are sterile males.

- Heritable changes in chromosome number - Human sex chromosomes In the early 1960s, rumors began circulating that men were secretly posing as women in international sporting events. Soon after, gender verification both by physical gynecologic examination and genetic testing became routine. After decades of controversy, the practice was discontinued in 1999 by the International Olympic Committee, which cited (among other reasons) that gender testing is too difficult and not clear cut. Imagine that you dig up the following gender test medical chart (look at picture) from the 1980 Summer Olympic Games in Moscow. Physical examination Sparse facial and body hair Somewhat overweight Tall the parentheses represent choices for each blank. They are recommend to compete as male. This athlete's karyotype reveals a genetic anomaly caused by a ______ (transolation, nondisjunction, deletion).arrow_forwardHeritable changes in chromosome number - Human sex chromosomes In the early 1960s, rumors began circulating that men were secretly posing as women in international sporting events.

- Synthesis - Claim, Evidence, Reasoning Consider the following question: “The Y chromosome is an accurate indicator of a person’s external sex organs.” Do you agree or disagree with this statement? State a CLAIM that addresses the question and support that claim with EVIDENCE and REASONING from the case of Santi Soundarajan.arrow_forwardQuestion:- The success of renal transplantation depends on three human histocompatibility genes, HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-C, which must match between the donor and the receiver. A single mismatch may cause the kidney rejection. Each gene has multiple co-dominant alleles. These three genes are located very close to each other on chromosome 6, so that the recombination rate is very low (below 1%). The father has the following genotype: A1, A2, B24, B10, Cw4 and Cw7 and the mother is A1, A1, B11, B7, Cw5 and Cw8. Their first boy is A1, A1, B24, B11, Cw7 and Cw8.
