Name 2 things the ABO gene codes for besides blood type.
The Xb locus on Alouatta genus, the howler monkey X chromosome has 2 alleles, b+ and b. The b+ allele causes the presence of the Xb surface protein on their granulocyte cells, while the recessive allele b which does not allow the antigen to appear. The Xb locus is at 15 centimorgans, from the GRG locus. The GRG locus produces a normal enzyme activity. Individual howler monkeys with one form of an eye condition have the grg/grg genotype, with the males grg/Y presenting the condition. A male howler monkey with the eye condition caused by this enzyme mutation and no Xb antigen has a normal female howler monkey daughter with Xb antigen. This howler monkey female daughter is expecting a little howler monkey from the mating from a male howler monkey from a different tree. A) Determine the genotype of the howler monkey daughter, from the problem. B) Determine the types and percentages of each gametes in oogenesis produced of the howler monkey daughter female, based on the map distance given.…

What did the researchers observe in the experimental group (AVYA x aa) that was fed diets high in methyl donors? They gained weight rapidly. Increased expression of aqouti gene. Reduced risk of chronic disease Higher percentage of yellow offspring.
Many different alleles of a gene may exist in a population, yet each individual within the population does not carry more than two alleles of the gene. Is this true or false? A specific DNA mutation results in the production of a nonfunctional Chloride Ion Channel protein. The wildtype (normal) DNA sequence and the mutant DNA sequence that code for the Chloride Ion Channel protein, would they be considered different alleles of the same gene?
ABO blood group system is defined by the presence of agglutinogens (A and B molecules) at the surface of red blood cells. Enzyme A which leas to the production of the molecule A is coded by all ele A, while enzyme B which leads to the production of the molecule B is coded by allele B, and enzyme O which cannot lead to the production of any molecule is coded by allele O. A part of the coding DNA strand for enzyme A: GAC GTG CGC GCC A part of the coding DNA strand for enzyme B: GAG GTG GcC GCC 5. Compare the non-transcribed strand coding for enzyme A to that coding for enzyme B. 6. Identify the type of mutation involved in this case. Justify. 7.

A human gene called the β-globin gene encodes a polypeptide that functions as a subunit of the protein known as hemoglobin. Hemoglobin carries oxygen within red blood cells. In human populations, the β-globin gene can be found as the more common allele called the HbA allele, but it can also be found as theHbS allele. Individuals who have two copies of the HbS allele have the disease called sickle cell disease. Are the followingexamples a description of genetics at the molecular, cellular, organism, or population level?A. The HbS allele encodes a polypeptide that functions slightly differently from the polypeptide encoded by the HbA allele.B. If an individual has two copies of the HbS allele, that person’s red blood cells take on a sickle shape. C. Individuals who have two copies of the HbA allele do not have sickle cell disease, but they are not resistant to malaria. People who have one HbA allele and one HbS allele do not have sickle cell disease, and they are resistant to malaria.…
Examine whether the given statement, "each member of the human hemoglobin gene family, which consists of seven genes arranged in two clusters on different chromosomes, is an ortholog to all the other members" is true or false.
Each organism has several different types of hemoglobin with different properties. Which of the following contributes to the varying 02 binding properties of different variants? O Different hemoglobin genes occur in a tandem array and can be independently expressed. Hemoglobin is comprised of four subunits each of which can come from different genes. O Hemoglobin genes can vary in the binding strength of oxygen. Hemoglobin is located in red blood cells that circulate through the blood stream.
Hemoglobin, a protein found in red blood cells, carries oxygen. Abnormal hemoglobin cannot carry as much oxygen as normal hemoglobin. The sequences below show sections of the DNA sequence that produce both the normal and abnormal types of hemoglobin.

Hemophilia is an X linked recessive condition. A woman has a brother who is hemophiliac and while she does not have the condition she has a brother who has the condition. Hemophilia is due to a mutation in a clotting factor. The exon intron structure of a clotting factor gene is shown below. Exons are blue rectangles. You analyze the DNA of the woman and her brother by PCR using primers which bind to the left and right of exon 4. The results of the gel of the PCR products are shown below. The negative end of the gel is at the top, the positive is at the bottom. Based on these results, what kind of mutation does the brother have? Exon 1 Woman The brother is missing part or all of exon 4 The brother has a single nucleotide change in exon 4 The brother has an additional exon 5 Brother 6 7 8
