In fruit flies, chromosomal crossing over does not occur in meiosis in males, whereas crossing over does occur in meiosis in females. In fruit flies that are heterozygous at many genes (i.e. many maternal and paternal versions of the genes differ), at what stage would cells no longer be heterozygous for any gene during the process of meiosis?
a)After the second meiotic division in males, and after the first meiotic division in females.
b)After the second meiotic division in both males and females.
c)After the first meiotic division in both males and females.
d)After the first meiotic division in males, and after the second meiotic division in females.
In fruit flies, the allele for normal wings (V) is dominant to the allele for short wings (v). Suppose two fruit flies heterozygous for the trait are mated.
What is the male fruit fly’s genotype and the female fruit fly’s genotype?
What is the male fruit fly’s phenotype and the female fruit fly’s phenotype?
What will be the genotypic ratio of the F1 generation?
What will be the phenotypic ration of the F1 generation?
The Yellow Fever mosquito has 2N number of 6 chromosomes and a Yellow dung fly has 2N
number of 12 chromosomes, assuming that crossing over did not happen. Which of the following
statement/s is/are correct?
Select one:
a. Independent assortment and random fertilization will have no impact on the genetic
diversity of zygotes
b. The genetic diversity among offspring will be same in Yellow dung fly and Yellow fever
mosquito
c The genetic diversity among offspring will be higher in Yellow dung fly compared to
Yellow fever mosquito
d. No genetic diversity will be produced among offspring in the two species
e. Random fertilization can reduce the genetic diversity of zygotes in Yellow fever
mosquito

This gene is known to be X linked. If a small-winged male is crossed with a homozygous wild-type female, what ratio of normal to small-winged flies can be expected in each sex in the F1?

- Butterflies have an X-Y sex-determination system that is different from that of flies or humans. Female butterflies may be either XY or X0, while butterflies with two or more X chromosomes are males. This photograph shows a tiger swallowtail gynandromorph, which is half male (left side) and half female (right side). Given that the first division of the zygote divides the embryo into the future right and left halves of the butterfly, propose a hypothesis that explains how nondisjunction during the first mitosis might have produced this unusual-looking butterfly. Question is also in the picture.arrow_forwardIn fruit flies, gray body (G) is dominant to black body (g).

- The chromosomes in the illustration below are found in a male betta fish and carry the gene for determining a trait in the tail of the betta fish. In betta fish, single tails are domi- nant to double tails. During meiosis, when gametes are formed, the male fish can only pass on one allele for the tail trait to each gamete. In a male fish that happens to be heterozy- gous, a gamete can only inherit the dominant allele on chromosome 1 or the dominant al- lele on chromosome 2. A An illustration of paired homologous chromosomes.

- In humans, hemophilia is a recessive trait carried on the X chromosome. Imagine that a couple, Mike and Anisha, have a daughter with hemophilia with the unusual karyotype of 45, X. Anisha's maternal uncle also had hemophilia. Where could an error in meiosis have occurred that would have given rise to this colour-blind daughter with only one X chromosome? 1. Non-disjunction in Mike at Meiosis I 2. Non-disjunction in Anisha at Meiosis I 3. Non-disjunction in Mike at Meiosis II 4.
