Fruit flies are unusual in that the male fruit flies do not undergo crossovers during meiosis. If you had taken 20 of the F1 Males with lobe eyes and crossed them to 20 females that were true breeding for reduced bristles and disrupted wings what phenotypes and in what proportions would you expect in the offspring?
Sex determination in birds is different from that in humans. The sex chromosomes in birds are called Z and W, because males have two of the same chromosome (ZZ), whereas females have two different chromosomes (ZW). There is a Z-linked allele in some birds that causes the death of the embryo when the normal dominant allele is not present. What would be the sex ratio in the living offspring of a cross between a male heterozygous for the lethal allele and a normal female?
A) What are the genotypes of the parents? Male____ Female____
B) Which gametes would each form? Male____ Female____
C) Draw your Punnett square below and determine the sex ratios of living offspring.
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? If F1 flies are intercrossed, what F2 progeny ratios are expected? What progeny ratios are predicted if F1 females are backcrossed with their father?arrow_forward
- In fruit flies, gray body (G) is dominant to black body (g). If a male with a black body mates with a female that is homozygous dominant for her gray body what are the possible genotypes and phenotypes of their offspring? Complete the Punnett square below. What is the expected phenotypic ratio among the offspring?arrow_forwardIn fruit flies, L= long wings and l = short wings. When a long-winged fly is crossed with a short winged fly, the offspring exhibit a 1:1 ratio. What is the genotype of the parental flies?arrow_forwardA cross is carried out between two pure lines of tomato plants, one having regular leaves and red fruit and the other having potato leaves and yellow fruit. The F1 generation all have regular leaves and red fruit. The F1 individuals are then crossed with one another. Question text The expected phenotypic ratio for leaf shape and fruit colour genes is 9:3:3:1, if both genes are on different chromosomes and assort independently during gamete formation. The information below represents two sets of data collected from the above cross. Data Set 1 is from a population of 5000 tomato plants and Data Set 2 is from a population of 50 tomato plants. Phenotypes Observed Probabilities Data Set 1(N = 5000) Data Set 2(N = 50) Regular Red 0.58 0.050 Regular Yellow 0.16 0.29 Potato Red 0.20 0.050 Potato Yellow 0.060 0.61 A.

- In C. elegans, lon-2 and unc-2 are recessive mutations that are 8 map units apart on the X chromosome. An hermaphrodite who is Lon and Unc is mated to a wild-type male. An F1 hermaphrodite is mated to a wild-type male. What are the expected percentages of the different phenotypes among the male progeny?arrow_forwardThe duck-billed platypus has a unique mechanism of sex determination: females have five pairs of X chromosomes (X1X1X2X2X3X3X4X4X5X5) and males have five pairs of X and Y chromosomes (X1Y1X2Y2X3Y3X4Y4X5Y5). Do you think each of the X and Y chromosome pairs in males assorts independently of other X and Y pairs during meiosis? Why or why not?arrow_forwardCock-feathering in chickens is a sex-limited trait, limited to the male sex.
