Question 1 In a population of Jackalopes (pictured below), horn length will vary between 0.5 and 2 feet, with the mean length somewhere around 1.05 feet. You pick Jackalopes that have horn lengths around 1.75 feet to breed as this appears to be the optimal length for battling other Jackalopes for food. After a round of breeding, you measure the offsprings' mean horn length is 1.67. What is the heritability of horns length (h2)? Is Jackalope horn length a heritable trait? (4 pts)? 12pt v Paragraph BIU A ✓
True or false? All traits are inherited in a Mendelian pattern.

Red-flowering snapdragons are homozygous for allele RI. White-flowing snapdragons are homozygous for a different allele (R2). Heterozygous plants (R1 R2) bear pink flowers. What phenotypes should appear among first-generation offspring of the crosses listed? What are the expected proportions for each phenotype? a. R1R1 R1R2 b. R1R1 R2R2 c. R1R2 R1R2 d. R1R2 R2R2
The forked line and probability methods make use of what probability rule? test cross product rule monohybrid rule sum rule
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?
Suppose that a team of researchers analyzes the heritability of high SAT scores and assigns a heritability of 0.75 for this ability. The team also determines that a certain ethnic group has a heritability value that is 0.12 lower compared with that of other ethnic groups. The group concludes that there must be a genetic explanation for the differences in scores. Why is this an invalid conclusion?
True or false? Inbreeding can increase the frequency of a harmful allele in a population's gene pool.
Monozygotic (MZ) twins have a concordance value of 44% for a specific trait, whereas dizygotic twins have a concordance value of less than 5% for the same trait. What could explain why the value for MZ twins is significantly less than 100%?
Questions 4 through 6 refer to the following hypothetical pathway in which substance A is converted to substance C by enzymes 1 and 2. Substance B is the intermediate produced in this pathway: a. If the first individual in Question 4 married the second individual, would their children be able to convert substance A into substance C? b. Suppose each of the adults mentioned in part a was heterozygous for an autosomal dominant mutation that prevents any enzyme function. List the phenotypes of their children with respect to compounds A, B, and C. (Would the compound be in excess, not present, and so on?)
In sweet pea plants, an allele for purple flowers. (P) is dominanl when paired with a recessive allele for red flowers (p). An allele for Jang pollen grains (L) is dominant when paired with a recessive allele for round pollen grains (L). Bateson and Punnett crossed a plant having purple flowers and long pollen grains with one having white flowers and round pollen grains. All F1 offspring have purple flowers and long pollen grains. Among the F2 generation, the researchers observed the following phenotypes: 296 purple flowers/long pollen grains 19 purple /lower/ round pollen grains 27 red flowers/long pollen grains 85 red flowers/round pollen grains What is the best explanation for these results?
A single allele gives rise to the Hbs form of hemoglobin. Individuals who are homozygous for the allele (HbS/HbS) develop sickle-cell anemia (Section 9.6). Heterozygous individuals (HbA/HbS) have few symptoms. A couple who are both heterozygous for the HbS allele plan to have children. For each of the pregnancies, state the probability that they will have a child who is: a. homozygous for the HbS allele b. homozygous for the normal allele (HbA) c. heterozygous: HbA/HbS
