Chapter 12, Problem 40P

Somatic cells in organisms of a particular diploid plant species normally have 14 chromosomes. The chromosomes in the gametes are numbered from 1 through 7. Rarely, zygotes are formed that contain more or fewer than 14 chromosomes. For each of the zygotes below, (i) state whether the chromosome complement is euploid or aneuploid; (ii) provide terms that describe the individual’s genetic makeup as accurately as possible; and (iii) state whether or not the individual will likely develop through the embryonic stages to make an adult plant, and if so, whether or not this plant will be fertile.

The metabolic pathway below is used for the production of the purine nucleotides adenosine monophosphate (AMP) and guanosine monophosphate (GMP) in eukaryotic cells. Assume each arrow represents a reaction catalyzed by a different enzyme. Using the principles of feedback inhibition, propose a regulatory scheme for this pathway that ensures an adequate supply of both AMP and GMP, and prevents the buildup of Intermediates A through G when supplies of both AMP and GMP are adequate.
