Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 8TYU
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.

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…

- Consider the true diploid plant cell (2n=4) below. The paternally derived blue chromosomesare of two types, metacentric and acrocentric. These chromosomes contain the same gene pattern andstructural features as the maternally derived purple chromosomes. Consider two genes A and B whichare found on the metacentric and acrocentric chromosome pairs, respectively. Assume the father passedon A and B alleles, and the mother passed on a and b alleles. a. Show the possible loci of these genes (specify alleles) on the image. Label both sister chromatids in each chromosome. (Note: Sister chromatids are products of replication.)b.

- use the image to answer these two questions - draw all possible metaphase I arrangements that would occur if this cell were undergoing meiosis. be sure to label the alleles as shown above -draw all possible gametes that will result from this cell undergoing meiosis. again, be sure to label the alleles (there should be EIGHT total possbilities, please draw ALL of them)arrow_forwardWe say that genes that are close together on the same chromosome are linked. What does that mean? Imagine that in a diploid nucleus, one chromosome has the allele R and right next to it on the same chromosome is the allele T for a different gene. Are these linked? Imagine that r is right next to t on the homologous chromosome. If this cell never undergoes meiosis, does this matter at all? If it does undergo meiosis, what are the two genotypes that the gametes are most likely to have?
