Chapter 33, Problem 6TYU
MAKE CONNECTIONS In Figure 33.8, assume that the two medusae shown ai step 4 were produced by one polyp colony. Review Concept 12.1 and Concept 13.3, and then use your understandingof mitosisand meiosis to evaluate whether the following sentence is Irue oi false; if false, seiet t the am wer that providcs the correct reason. Although the two medusae are genetically identical, a sperm produced by one will differ genetically front an egg produced by the other.
- (A) False {both the medusae and the gametes are genetically identical)
- (B) False (neither the medusae nor the gametes are genetically identical)
(C) False {the medusae are not identical but the gametes are)
(D) True

- Animals and plant both have diploid and haploid cells. How does the animal life cycle differ from the alternation of generations exhibitied by plantsarrow_forwardSCIENTIFIC INQUIRY The diagram in question 6 representsjust a few of the chromosomes of a meiotic cell in a certainperson. Assume the freckles gene is located at the locus markedF, and the hair-color gene is located at the locus marked H,both on the long chromosome. The individual from whomthis cell was taken has inherited different alleles for each gene(“freckles” and “black hair” from one parent, and “no freckles”and “blond hair” from the other). Predict allele combinationsin the gametes resulting from this meiotic event. (It will helpif you draw out the rest of meiosis and label the alleles byname.) List other possible combinations of these alleles in thisindividual’s gametes.arrow_forwardgenes relies on the existence of ovoD, a dominant female sterile mutation of the ovo gene, whichis located near the middle of the acrocentricDrosophila X chromosome. Females that are ovoD/ovo+ are sterile; ovoD-containing germ-line cellscannot produce eggs.a. Mutations in gene X are recessive lethals, so homozygotes for these mutations do not develop intoadults. Explain how researchers could use the ovoDmutation in a mitotic recombination experiment todetermine (i) whether or not females might supplythe RNA or protein product of gene X to the eggsthey make in their ovaries, and (ii) whether thismaternally supplied product is needed for properdevelopment of their progeny. Where in the genome would gene X need to be located for thisapproach to work?b. The ovoD mutant gene has been cloned, so genomicDNA for this mutant gene is available. How couldyou use this cloned DNA to determine whether any embryonic lethal mutation located anywhere in thegenome was an allele of a maternal effect…arrow_forward
