Chapter 15.2, Problem 3CC
MAKE CONNECTIONS Ø Consider what you learned about dominant and recessive alleles in Concept 14.1. If a disorder were caused by a dominant X-Iinked allele, how would the inheritance pattern differ from what we see for recessive X-Iinked disorders?

- Could the trait presented in the pedigree shown be caused by an X-linked recessive allele? Why or why not? 11 ||| IV ■ 5 6 Yes, with individual 2 of generation I being heterozygous. No, the offspring of 7 and 8 contradict an X-linked recessive inheritance. No, the offspring of 3 and 4 of generation II contradict an X-linked recessive inheritance. No, the offspring of 1 and 2 of generation I contradict an X-linked recessive inheritance.arrow_forward9. Red-green color blindness is inherited as an X-linked recessive (Xc). If a color-blind man marries a woman who is heterozygous for normal vision, what would be the expected phenotypes of their children with reference to this character? In your answer, specify in your phenotype descriptions the gender of the children. (For example, don’t just say 75% of the children would be colorblind – you would instead say 100 % of the daughters would be colorblind and 50% of the sons would be colorblind. Note that this is not a correct answer; it is just to give you an idea of how to explain the correct phenotypes of the cross.)___arrow_forwardEXAMPLE PROBLEM Two black female mice are crossed with a brown male. In several litters, female I produced 9 black offspring and 7 brown; female II produced 57 black offspring. What deductions can you make about the inheritance of black and brown coat color in mice? What are the genotypes of the parents? Dominance and recessive describe which of two possible phenotypes are exhibited when two different alleles occur in the same individual.arrow_forward
- What explains how the parents in a family both have the same eye color, but some of their children have a different eye color? Assume for this example that eye color is determined by a single gene. ● One parent is homozygous dominant, and the other homozygous recessive for a gene that controls eye color allowing some of the children to express a different trait. O The parents are both heterozygous for a gene that controls eye color allowing some of the children to get two recessive alleles. O The parents are both homozygous dominant for a gene that controls eye color allowing some of the children to get two recessive alleles. O One parent is homozygous dominant, and the other heterozygous for a gene that controls eye color allowing some of the children to express a different trait.arrow_forwardBIU A- == 三E 12 - Match each of the following examples to the appropriate type of non-Mendelian inheritance. 1. A homozygous recessive genotype for the gene that encodes phenylalanine hydroxylase (which breaks down the amino acid phenylalanine) causes lighter skin color, a musty odor, differences in intellectual development, and seizures. 2. In pea plants, alleles of Gene W control flower color, with the dominant allele (W) leading to purple flower.color, and the recessive allele (w) leading to white flower color. Usually, a genotype of WW or Ww leads to purple flowers. However, when Gene C is homozygous recessive, WW or Ww plants always have white flowers. 3. In mallard ducks, feather coloring is controlled by Gene F. A dominant allele (F) leads to green head feathers, while a recessive allele (f) leads to brown head feathers. In male mallards, inheritance of one or more F alleles always leads to the green head feather trait. But female mallards always have brown head feathers,…arrow_forwardPlease include drawn diagrams and full explanations of concepts for both questionsThank youarrow_forward

What would be the possible blood types of the offspring in each of the following matings?arrow_forwardIn humans, Cystic Fibrosis an autosomal recessive trait, currently with medicine advances people affected by this disease can live until the 40s and 50s even. A couple in which the mother is a known carrier for this disease plans to have 4 children with a man who is not affected either but had his father who had the disease. A) Please state the genotypes of the parents. Use C to denote the dominant allele and c as the recessive B) Determine the probability that the first 2 children born have Cystic Fibrosis and the 2 last children are not affected.
