How can you tell a karyotype is a diploid? What other information can you learn from looking at a karyotype? Choose one of the animal karyotypes and do some research on it. Please give a short description of the organism. Also, is the sex-determination of the organism you chose- is your organism male or female?

In the karyotype shown here, identify the sex chromosomes. Is this individual a male or a female?

Show the cross between a plant which is tall and purple, heterozygous for both traits AND a plant which is short and purple; heterozygous for purple flowers. Use the dihybrid template printout from above for this cross. Insert your picture by clicking on the picture frame and ensure that your picture includes your name.

The data set attached presents the results of a testcross using female flies heterozygous for three traits and male flies, which are homozygous recessive. For simplicity, mutant alleles are shown with letters a, b, and c and wildtype alleles are indicated by a “+” symbol. For this part of the report do the following in order: a) Determine the gene order (which gene is in the middle?)d) Construct a genetic map for the three genes, including the map distances between them. Clearly indicate the logic you followed and show all your calculations. Include the full distance calculations for the two most distanced genes (do not just add the other 2 distances).  Ensure the work is neat and clear and does not contain spelling or grammatical errors so that it is understandable. Make sure to double check the solution provided.

Groodies are useful (but fictional) haploid organisms that are pure genetic tools. A wild-type groody has a fat body, a long tail, and flagella. Mutant lines are known that have thin bodies, are tailless, or do not have flagella. Groodies can mate with one another (although they are so shy that we do not know how) and produce recombinants. A wild-type groody mates with a thin-bodied groody lacking both tail and flagella. The 1000 baby groodies produced are classified as shown in theillustration here. Assign genotypes, and map the three genes. (Problem 25 is from Burton S. Guttman.)

Three newborn bables have been separated from their parents. You need to make sure that each child is reunited with the proper set of parents. The data below was gathered by amplifying two VNTR loci in each baby and the possible parents. Fragments were then separated using gel electrophoresis. Assume that each parent couple had only one of the babies. Match the babies with the proper parents.

In the figure below, black and pink lines are used to represent nonhomologous chromosomes. Which of the figures matches the following descriptions? More than one diagram may correspond to any one statement, and a diagram may be a correct answer for more than one question. 1) Gametes produced by a reciprocal translocation heterozygote: 2) Genetically balanced gametes produced by a reciprocal translocation heterozygote:

Termites have a haplo-diploid sex determination system where females develop from a fertilized egg (they are diploid, having one allele from the female cueen and one allele from the male), and males develop from unfertilized eggs (they are haploid, having only one allele from the queen). Assuming that the female parent (queen) is heterozygous for a particular gene, what is the probability that a female offspring will inherit the recessive allele from her mother? What is the probability that a male offspring will inherit a recessive allele from his mother? O A. The probability that a daughter will inherit a recessive allele from her mother is 50%; the probability that a son will inherit a recessive allele from his mather is 50%. OB. Ihe probobility that a daughter will inherit a recessive allele from her mother is 0%; the probability that a son will inherit a recessive allele from his mother is 100%. O C. The probability that a daughter will inherit a recessive allele from her mother is…

Can you please help answer this question?

In Figure 3-11, if the input genotypes were a • B and A • b,what would be the genotypes colored blue?
