- Briefly describe Mendel’s rule of inheritance: segregation and independent assortmentarrow_forwardMendel’s observation that two different traits could be inherited independently of each other can be explained by understanding that: During meiosis, the process of chromosome assortment into daughter cells is random Alleles of the genes reside on homologous chromosomes All of the listed choices are correct During meiosis, maternal and paternal members of homologous chromosomes are distributed separately into daughter cellsarrow_forwardIn sex-linked inheritance, if a colour blind man mates with a heterozygous woman, what is the expected ratio of phenotypes among the offsprings? normal female : heterozygous female : normal male : colour-blind male (1 : 1 :1: 1) normal female : normal male : colour-blind male (2 :1: 1) normal female : heterozygous female : normal male (1:1:2) heterozygous female: colour blind female: normal male: colour-blind male (1: 1: 1: 1)arrow_forward
- Explain the concept of mendal's law of inheritence?arrow_forwardExplain the central dogma of inheritance. Cite a specific example.arrow_forwardA maternal effect can cause the offspring phenotype ratio to depart from that of classic Mendelian inheritance. In a species of snail, the dominant allele N codes for right-handed shell coiling and recessive allele n codes for left-handed shell coiling. If an Nn female with right-handed shell coiling mates with an Nn male, what is the shell coiling phenotypic ratio of their offspring? O 3, bidirectional coil : 1, left-handed coil 4, right-handed coil : 0, left-handed coil 3, right-handed coil: 1, left-handed coil 0, right-handed coil : 4, left-handed coilarrow_forward
- Acatalasia is caused by a rare autosomal recessive gene. In heterozygous condition catalase activity is decreased slightly. A woman with a normal catalase activity have a husband with low catalase activity. What is the probability of children birth without anomaly in the family, if grandparents from both sides have reduced activity of catalase? Diagram the cross and mention the genotypes of all individuals in the family?arrow_forwardMendel's concept of dominance states that in a genotype where two different alleles of a locus are present, only the trait encoded by the dominant allele is observed. Give a molecular explanation for dominance, i.e. explain intracellular molecular events that can result in what we observe as dominance on a phenotypic level. Use the gene that encodes seed shape in peas as an example, where roun(R) is dominant over wrinkled(r), to explain how RR and Rr plants can have the same phenotype.arrow_forwardIdentify non-Mendelian inheritance patterns from the results of crosses, including incomplete dominance, codominance, multiple alleles, and X-linkedarrow_forward
- Explain why disease alleles for cystic fibrosis (CF)are recessive to the normal alleles (CF+), yet thedisease alleles responsible for Huntington disease(HD) are dominant to the normal alleles (HD+).arrow_forwardA woman with fair skin, blond hair, and blue eyes gives birth to fraternal twins; the father has dark brown skin, dark hair, and brown eyes. One twin has blond hair, brown eyes, and light skin, and the other has dark hair, brown eyes, and dark skin. What Mendelian law does this real-life case illustrate and explain what this means in terms of the inherited alleles for these genes?arrow_forwardOne example of non-Mendelian inheritance is uniparental inheritance. Choose the definition of uniparental inheritance. One parent transmits all genetic information to all offspring. Two parents transmit combined genetic information to all offspring. Two parents transmit combined genetic information to half of their offspring. One parent transmits all genetic material to only half of the offspring. Select the examples of genetic material that are uniparentally inherited in sexually reproducing eukaryotes. nuclear DNA mitochondrial DNA plastid DNA endoplasmic reticulum DNAarrow_forward
