SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY

The diagram in question 5 represents a meiotic cell. Assume the freckles gene is at the locus marked F, and the hair-color gene is located at the locus marked H, both on the long chromosome. The person from whom this cell was taken has inherited different alleles for each gene (“freckles” and “black hair” from one parent and “no freckle s” and “blond hair” from the other). Predict allele combinations in the gametes resulting from this meiotic event List other possible combinations of these alleles in this person’s gametes.

SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY The diagram in question 6 represents just a few of the chromosomes of a meiotic cell in a certain person. Assume that the freckles gene is located at the locus marked F, and the hair-color gene is located at the locus marked H, both on the long chromosome. The individual from whom this cell was taken has inherited different alleles for each gene (“freckles” and “black hair” from one parent, and “no freckles” and “blond hair” from the other). Predict allele combinations in the gametes resulting from this meiotic event. (It will help if you draw out the rest of meiosis and label the alleles by name.) List other possible combinations of these alleles in this individual’s gametes.   Question is also in the picture.

The drawings below represent four possible cells produce by meiosis in a cell pf the genotype AaBb. Examine the figures below and answer the questions that follow: 1. How many different types of cells are produced at the end of Meiosis I?  A  *Write your answer as a word, not a number     2. Is there any other way you could have arranged the chromosomes? For example,                   a.  Could A and a be arranged so that both go to the same cell after Metaphase I (Yes/No)? B                   b.  Could B and b be arranged so that both go to the same cell after Metaphase I (Yes.No)? C                   c.  Could A and B be arranged so that both go to the same cell after Metaphase I (Yes/No)?  D                   d.  Could A and b be arranged so that both go to the same cell after Metaphase I?(Yes./No) E   3. Are the daughter cells haploid, or diploid? F   4.  Do the daughter cells have the same genetic composition as the original cell (Yes/No)? G   5.  Focus on the four daughter cells…
