Particularly useful are “banding" polymorphisms because the "morphs"can be used as chromosome markers.

The haploid human genome consists of approximately 3.2 × 109 bp (or 6.4 × 109 bp per diploid genome). Assuming that DNA is B-DNA, calculate the total length of a single cell’s DNA.
A previously undiscovered single celled organism was found living at a great depth on the ocean floor. Its nucleus contains only a single, linear chromosome consisting of 7x10^6 nucleotide pairs of DNA coalesced with three types of histone-like proteins. The analysis of individual nucleosomes revealed that each unit contained one copy of each protein and that the short linker DNA had no protein bound to it If the entire chromosome consists of nucleosomes (discounting any linker DNA), how many are there and how many total proteins are needed to form them?
Are the epsilon (ε) and beta (β) genes on chromosome 11 orthologs or paralogs? Explain your answer.
1) transposons are highly conserved DNA sequences that induce homologous recombination (true or false ) 2)Okazaki fragments are small pieces of RNA synthesized on the lagging strand during transcription (true or false) 3)homologous recombination is a eukaryotic chromatin exchange mechanism that is active during meiosis (true or false)
The genes that codes for the creation of certain blood groups are located on chromosome "XGp22.3", chromosome "12p12.3", chromosome "2q14.3", and so on. What is this chromosome terminology? What does it mean?
A scientist investigating the genome of two related individuals observes a difference of a few nucleotides in one individual compared to the other. The nucleotide differences are in a region of noncoding DNA on chromosome 1. Would these differences be considered a mutation? Why or why not? Yes, the difference in nucleotide sequences between the individuals is a mutation because it will affect the phenotype of the two individuals. Yes, any heritable variation in the nucleotide sequence is considered a mutation, even if that variation is in a noncoding region of DNA. Not enough information was provided to determine if this nucleotide difference is a mutation because the effect on phenotype is unknown. No, the change in nucleotide sequence doesn't appear in a coding region of the DNA and so can't be a mutation.
A schematic drawing of a Holliday junction is shown next. One chromatid is shown in red, and the homologous chromatid is shown in blue. The red chromatid carries a dominant allele labeled A and a recessive allele labeled b, whereas the blue chromatid carries a recessive allele labeled a and a dominant allele labeled B.
Researchers have discovered that some regions of chromosomes are more likely than others to cross over, these areas of frequent crossing over are called "recombination hot spots". Gene A and B are 500,000 bp apart - the genes are either side of a recombination hot spot. Gene C and D are also 500,000 bp apart but the region containing genes C and D are not near a recombination hot spot. Would the map distance between A and B be the same as the map distance between C and D? Explain your answer.
The following gene arrangements in a particular chromosome are found in different geographic regions. The changes in sequence were due to sequential inversions. ABCDEF DECAFB DEFACB AFEDCB Assuming that the arrangement in “a” is the original arrangement, in what sequence did the various inversion types arise?
Using a laser beam, you isolated several R bands from human chromosomes. Answer the following questions What kinds of genes are present in R bands? Which isochors do you expect to be present in the R band? What class of interspersed repeats will be present in R bands? What class of tandem repeats do you expect to find in RG bands? Would you expect to find telomere sequences in some R bands?
A pair of paralogous repeats, A and B, have 96% sequence similarity and therefore can promote non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR). They exist in four possible arrangements in a genome, illustrated below as arrangements 1 – 4. What is the result of NAHR between repeats A and B in arrangement 1? A.Translocation between chromosomes 1 and 2 resulting in monocentric chromosomes B.Deletion or duplication of the region between A and B C.Translocation between chromosomes 1 and 2 resulting in acentric and dicentric chromosomes D.Inversion of the region between A and B
