Chapter 14.8, Problem 32P
Summary Introduction

To explain: The reason that autoimmunity is an abnormal functioning of the immune response.

Introduction: The immune system provides defence against invading pathogens. It is a complex network of cells, organs, and proteins that provides immunity. The immunity can be differentiated into innate and adaptive immunity. The innate immunity provides non-specific defence against the invading pathogens, while adaptive immunity provides specific defence against pathogens. However, some disorders in the immune system may turn against the own body cells.

Three of the many recessive mutations in Drosophila melanogaster that affect body color, wing shape, or bristle morphology are black (b) body versus grey in wild type, dumpy (dp), obliquely truncated wings versus long wings in the male, and hooked (hk) bristles versus not hooked in the wild type.  From a cross of a dumpy female with a black and hooked male, all of the F1 were wild type for all three of the characters.  The testcross of an F1 female with a dumpy, black, hooked male gave the following results:   Trait Number of individuals Wild type 169 Black 19 Black, hooked 301 Dumpy, hooked 21 Hooked, dumpy, black 172 Dumpy, black 6 Dumpy 305 Hooked 8   Determine the order of the genes and the mapping distance between genes. Determine the coefficient of confidence for the portion of the chromosome involved in the cross. How much interference takes place in the cross?
