FOCUS ON INFORMATION

In sexually reproducing species, each individual begins life with DNA inherited from both parent organisms. In a short essay (100-150 words), apply this idea to what occurs when organisms of two species that have homologous chromosomes mate and produce (F1) hybrid offspring. What percentage of the DNA in the F1 hybrids' chromosomes comes from each parent species? As the hybrids mate and produce F2 and later-generation hybrid offspring, describe how recombination and natural selection may affect whether the DNA in hybrid chromosomes is derived from one parent species or the other.

Species or F1 hybrid Root tip chromosome number The following table presents chromosome data on four species of plants and their F1 hybrids: Meiosis I Metaphase Number of Number of bivalents univalents A 20 10 0 B 20 10 0 C 10 5 0 D 10 5 0 A x B 20 0 20 A x C 15 5 5 AxD 15 5 5 Cx D 10 0 10 Deduce the chromosomal origin of Species A. Show clearly the basis of your answer by analyzing and diagramming the crosses given above. Distinguish between chromosomes and give chromosome number for individuals in the crosses mentioned above. From these crosses, diagram the cross that gave rise to Species A. b. How many bivalents and univalents would you expect to observe at meiotic metaphase I in a hybrid between species C and species B? c. How many bivalents and univalents would you expect to observe at meiotic metaphase I in a hybrid between species D and species B?
