Chapter 11, Problem 21P
Summary Introduction

To review:

In the given table, there are two DNA and polypeptide sequences shown with alleles for a hypothetical locus that generates different polypeptides of five amino acids. In both cases, the lower DNA strand is the template strand:

Genetic Analysis: An Integrated Approach (3rd Edition), Chapter 11, Problem 21P

Based on this data of DNA and polypeptide sequence, is it possible to determine the dominant and recessive allele. Explain with reason.

Introduction:

Genotype is the organism’s genetic makeup while phenotype is that of its observable characters. The alleles are the forms of a gene. A single gene can have either two or many allelic versions.

The dominance or recessive terms state to the inheritance design of certain trait. The dominant alleles will produce dominant phenotype while recessive alleles produce recessive phenotype.

The resultant protein decides whether the trait is dominant or recessive.

After you feel comfortable with your counting method and identifying cells in the various stages of mitosis, use the four images below of whitefish blastula to count the cells in each stage until you reach 100 total cells, recording your data below in Data Table 1. (You may not need to use all four images. Stop counting when you reach 100 total cells.) After totaling the cells in each stage, calculate the percent of cells in each stage. (Divide total of stage by overall total of 100 and then multiply by 100 to obtain percentage.)   Data Table 1Stage    Totals    PercentInterphase        Mitosis:        Prophase        Metaphase        Anaphase        Telophase        Cytokinesis        Totals    100    100% To find the length of time whitefish blastula cells spend in each stage, multiply the percent (recorded as a decimal, in other words take the percent number and divide by 100) by 24 hours. (Example: If percent is 20%, then Time in Hours = .2 * 24 = 4.8) Record your data in Data…
