1:1:1:1

How many phenotypes and degrees of freedom are there for a monohybrid cross?

2 phenotypes, 1 degree of freedom (degrees of freedom is always 1 less than the number of categories/phenotypes)

The F2 phenotypes are: 14 brown wavy, 12 white straight, 35 brown straight and 39 white wavy. How far apart are the color and texture genes?

26 cM

For a self cross between two CPSR/CYSW parents, what offspring phenotype ratio do you expect if the C and S genes are completely linked (no crossing over occurs between them) and CP purple is dominant to CY yellow and SR round is dominant to SW wrinkled.

3 purple round: 1 wrinkled yellow

The fur color gene (C - brown dominant to c - white) is linked to the fur texture gene (W - wavy dominant to w - straight). You cross a CcWw individual to a ccww individual (F1 cross) and get four phenotypes in the F2 offspring. Which of the following would be evidence that the P1 parents of the F1 CcWw individual came from a cross between pure-breeding brown wavy and white straight parents, instead of pure-breeding brown straight and white wavy parents?

Brown wavy and white straight offspring are more common than brown straight and white wavy offspring in the F2.

CPSR CYSW

For a self cross between two CPSR/CYSW parents, what offspring genotypes are possible if the C and S genes are completely linked (no crossing over occurs between them). Select all that apply.

CPSR/CYSW CPSR/CPSR CYSW/CYSW

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a serious condition caused by a recessive allele of a gene on the human X chromosome. The patients have muscles that weaken over time because they have absent or decreased dystrophin, a muscle protein. They rarely live past their twenties. How likely is it for a woman to have this condition?

One-half of the daughters of an affected father and a carrier mother could have this condition.

For two unlinked genes, allele S is dominant to s, and allele Y is dominant to y. Which of the following are gamete genotypes produced by a plant of genotype SsYy?

SY, sY, Sy, sy

How does recombination frequency change with physical distance between genes on a chromosome?

The larger the distance between genes on the chromosome, the greater the chance that they will be separated by crossing over.

Which of Mendel's laws do linked gene violate?

The principle of independent assortment

The shape and color gene are 17 map units apart on a chromosome. A third gene, kernel size, is 11 map units away from the shape gene and 28 map units away from the color gene. What is the order of these genes on the chromosome?

color, shape, size (Shape must be in the middle because it's 11 map units away from size and 17 maps units away from color (which are 28 map units away from each other, and 11+17=28))

Vinblastine is a standard chemotherapeutic drug used to treat cancer. Because it interferes with the assembly of microtubules, its effectiveness must be related to ________.

disruption of mitotic spindle formation

A sexually reproducing animal has two genes, one for head shape (H) and one for tail length (T). Its genotype is HhTt. Which of the following genotypes is possible in a gamete from this organism if the genes for head shape and tail length are unlinked? (Select all that apply.)

hT

Mendel's 1st Law, the Principle of Segregation, states that the pairs of alleles that control a character segregate (separate) as gametes are formed; half the gametes carry one allele, and the other half carry the other allele. At what stage of cell division are the two alleles separated?

meiosis I

You set up a monohybrid cross for flies with two alleles of a gene, "wild type" (normal) and "mutant". You count wild type and mutant flies in the F2 offspring and calculate a chi-square value of 0.012. Use the chi-square table above to report the p value and whether you accept or reject the hypothesis that the alleles segregate away from each other during gamete formation.

p value: 0.975>p>0.9 Conclusion: Accept hypothesis

You set up a dihybrid cross, where the F1 genotypes are AaBb x AaBb. A is dominant to a, and B is dominant to b. You count the numbers of individuals with each phenotype in the F2 and calculate a chi-square value of 0.62. Use the chi-square table above to report the p value and whether you accept or reject the hypothesis that the genes independently assort during gamete formation.

p value: 0.9>p>0.5 Conclusion: Accept hypothesis

Two plants are crossed, resulting in offspring with a 3:1 ratio for a particular trait. What does this ratio suggest?
