g Has 39 päirs of chromosomes, a wolf has 39 pairs of chromosomes, but a red fox has only 17 pairs of chromosomes. Dog-wolf hybrids are well-known. How many chromosomes would you expect the hybrid to have? Would these chromosomes be homologous pairs? Dog-fox hybrids have occasionally claimed to occur, but none have ever been confirmed. If such a hybrid should ever be found, how many chromosomes would it have? Would these chromosomes be in pairs? Explain why or why not.

In the world of Weeping angels, those with pointy wings are (A_), while those with round wings are (aa). In the efforts to explore this extraordinary species, you wish to determine the genotype of a pointy winged angel. Luckily, you have trapped a round winged angel that you can cross your pointy winged angel with. If the pointy winged angel is homozygous what phenotypic ratio do you expect from their offspring? (Pointy wing: round wing) Group of answer choices a. 1:0 b. 2:1 c. 1:1 d. 3:1
Species I has 2 n = 8 chromosomes and species II has 2 n = 14 chromosomes. What would the expected chromosome numbers be in individuals with the following chromosome mutations? Give all possible answers. Q. Autotetraploidy in species II
The Oregon creeping vole, Microtus oregoni, has a very unusual meiosis?. In this rodent, males are XY, while females are XØ (that is, females have only a single X chromosome). During female meiosis, eggs that receive no maternal X chromosome do not mature, so females only produce eggs with exactly one X chromosome. As chromosome content is unchanged from generation to generation, M. oregoni males (who are XY) must deliberately nondisjoin their sex chromosomes. 1a) What types of sperm would M. oregoni have to produce (considering only their sex chromosome content) so that progeny get the right chromosomes? Remember, no inviable combinations are normally produced. 1b) Draw a Punnett square for the sex chromosomes in a M. oregoni mating, with the gametes that are actually produced. Indicate the sex of each offspring. 1c) From which parent do M. oregoni get their X chromosomes? Circle one. Mom Only Random Mom or Dad Dad Only
