A heterozygous individual has _______ for a trait being studied. a. the same allele on both homologous chromosomes b. two different alleles of a gene c. a haploid condition, in genetic terms
Variations on a Theme by Mendel A characteristic of snapdragons amenable to genetic analysis is flower color. Imagine that a true-breeding red- flowered variety is crossed to a pure line having white flowers. The progeny are exclusively pink-flowered. Diagram this cross, including genotypes for all P1 and F1 phenotypes. What is the mode of inheritance? Let F = red and f = white.
Redgreen color blindness is an X-linked recessive disorder in humans. Your friend is the daughter of a color-blind father. Her mother had normal color vision, but her maternal grandfather was color-blind. What is the probability that your friend is color-blind? (a) 1 (b) (c) (d) (e) 0
Variations on a Theme by Mendel Pea plants usually have white or red flowers. A strange pea-plant variant is found that has pink flowers. A selfcross of this plant yields the following phenotypes: 30 red flowers 62 pink flowers 33 white flowers What are the genotypes of the parents? What is the genotype of the progeny with red flowers?
Analysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits Huntington disease is a rare, fatal disease that usually develops in the fourth or fifth decade of life. It is caused by a single autosomal dominant allele. A phenotypically normal man in his twenties who has a 2-year-old son of his own learns that his father has developed Huntington disease. What is the probability that he himself will develop the disease? What is the chance that his young son will eventually develop the disease?
In sweet pea plant, an allele for purple flowers (P) is dominant when paired with a recessive allele for red flowers (p). An allele for long pollen grains (L) is dominant when paired with a recessive allele for round pollen grain (l). Bateson and Punnett crossed a plant having purple flowers/long pollen grains with one having white/flowers/round pollen grains. All F1 offspring had purple flowers and long pollen grains. Among the F2 generation, the researchers observed the following phenotypes: 296 purple flowers/long pollen grains 19 purple flowers/round pollen grains 27 red flowers/long pollen grains 85 red flowers/round pollen grains What is the best explanation for these results?
Independent assortment means _______. a. alleles at one locus assort into different gametes b. alleles at different loci tend to assort into gametes independently of each other

Crossing Pea Plants: Mendels Study of Single Traits An unspecified characteristic controlled by a single gene is examined in pea plants. Only two phenotypic states exist for this trait. One phenotypic state is completely dominant to the other. A heterozygous plant is self-crossed. What proportion of the progeny of plants exhibiting the dominant phenotype is homozygous?
A person who is a carrier for a genetic trait ___________. a. is heterozygous for a dominant trait b. is heterozygous for a recessive trait c. is homozygous for a recessive trait d. could be either a or b but not c
Crossing Pea Plants: Mendels Study of Single Traits Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is a human genetic disorder caused by a recessive allele. A couple plan to marry and want to know the probability that they will have an affected child. With your knowledge of Mendelian inheritance, what can you tell them if (1) each has one affected parent and a parent with no family history of SCA or (2) the man is affected by the disorder but the woman has no family history of SCA?
Clubfoot is a common congenital birth defect. This defect is caused by a number of genes but appears to be phenotypically distributed in a noncontinuous fashion. Geneticists use the threshold model to explain the occurrence of this defect. Explain this model. Explain predisposition to the defect in an individual who has a genotypic liability above the threshold versus an individual who has a liability below the threshold.
