In silkmoths, red eyes (r) are recessive to wild (+) and banded wings (b) are recessive to wild (+). A moth homozygous for red eyes and banded wings is crossed with a moth homozygous for the wild-type phenotypes. The F1 are all wild for both traits. When the F1 are testcrossed with red eyed, banded moths, the following F2 results occur: wild eye, wild wings 59 red eye, wild wings 138 wild eye, banded wings 140 red eye, banded wings 63 If the two loci are linked, what was the Configuration of the wild F1 moths? A. Coupled B. Repulsed C. they are not on the same chromosome - cannot tell

Repulsed

_____________ traits are encoded by autosomal loci but only expressed in one sex. A. Sex-linked B. Sex-Limited C. Sex-Controlled D. Holandric

Sex-Limited

Non-dysjunction can occur during both Mitosis and Meiosis. If it occurs during Mitosis, what fails to separate? A. Sister Chromatids B. Homologs C. Could be either depending on stage

Sister Chromatids

The ends of human chromosomes have extended repeats of the sequence TTAGGG. These ends are replicated by a special process involving the enzyme _______ that results in the chromosome becoming _______ after each replication. A. Telomerase / longer B. Tagase / longer C. Telomerase / shorter D. Tagase / shorter

Telomerase / shorter

Two "signatures" of the Incomplete Dominance mode of inheritance are? A. The F1 progeny from a standard cross all look like one of the parents and the phenotypic ratio in the F2 = 3:1 B. The F1 progeny from a standard cross all look like one of the parents and the phenotypic ratio in the F2 = 1:2:1 C. The F1 progeny from a standard cross are different from either of the parents and the phenotypic ratio in the F2 = 3:1 D. The F1 progeny from a standard cross are different from either of the parents and the phenotypic ratio in the F2 = 1:2:1

The F1 progeny from a standard cross are different from either of the parents and the phenotypic ratio in the F2 = 1:2:1

If Erwin Chargaff's data from DNA had only been the following, what would have been his most Appropriate conclusion for his experiments? Assume that a small margin of error always occurs in these types of analyses. Fruit Fly A = 25.1% T = 24.9% C = 25.0% G = 25.1% Human A = 25.0% T = 25.1% C = 24.9% G = 25.0% A. Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty were incorrect, DNA was not the "Transforming Factor" B. In dsDNA, sum of purines does not equal (≠) sum of pyrimidines C. The central prediction from Levene's DNA hypothesis could not be rejected D. These data would not change any of the conclusions from Chargaff's research

The central prediction from Levene's DNA hypothesis could not be rejected

The region of DNA that comprises what is traditionally called a gene is known as the: A. Loci B. Allele C. Translational Unit D. Transcriptional Unit

Transcriptional Unit
