Chapter 2, Problem 23P
Summary Introduction
To determine: The Genotypes of II-1 and III-2.
Introduction: The genotype is a portion of genetic makeup in a cell, and hence any person, which concludes one of its characteristics. The term was coined in 1903 by the Danish botanist, plant physiologist, and geneticist Wilhelm Johannse.

- Given the following genetic map, predict the chance an offspring would inherit the exact same haplotypes that the parents had. Assume interference in this area of the chromosome is 5%.

However, about 1 in every 2000 F1 flies had an "exceptional phenotype" and was either a white-eyed female or red-eyed male. How did Bridges explain this unexpected result? A) Crossing over B) Incomplete cytokinesis C) Incorrect synapsis D) Nondisjunction E) Pseudoautosomal regionarrow_forwardAs a graduate student, you join a lab and you are looking through some old notebooks.

- L, R, P and D are four genes located on the same chromosome in a diploid organism. Map distances between different pairs of genes were determined and the following results obtained. Based on these data, what is the order of the genes on the chromosome? D-R: 35 CM P-D: 5 CM L-R: 10 CM D-P: 30 CM D-L 25 CM P-R: 40 CM Note that only one orientation of the order is given as an answer choice. For example: ABCD has the same order as DCBA, but only ABCD would be listed as a possible answer. So be sure to check both orientations when comparing your gene order to the possible answer choices.
