Why are fruit flies considered a model genetic organism? Would humans fit this description?
In an electrophoretic gel across which is applied a powerful electrical alternating pulsed field, the DNA of the haploid fungus Neurospora crassa (n = 7) moves slowly but eventually forms seven bands, which represent DNA fractions that are of different sizes and hence have moved at different speeds. These bands are presumed to be the seven chromosomes. How would you show which band corresponds to which chromosome?

- Which one of the following options most accurately describes how the ~3000 megabases (Mb; ~3,000,000,000 nucleotides) of the haploid human genome are distributed on chromosomes? The haploid human genome is distributed on autosomes 1-22 and X and Y (so, 24 chromosomes). The haploid human genome is distributed on the homologous pairs of autosomes 1-22 and X and Y (so, 46 chromosomes). The haploid human genome is distributed on a single chromosome (so, 1 chromosome). The haploid human genome is distributed on one pair of homologous chromosomes (so, 2 chromosomes).arrow_forwardYou are working with two different yeast cultures to study their genetics. But, you are not sure what the mating type of either of the yeast cultures is. (As a reminder, yeast mating types are either a or alpha). As a test, you mix the two cultures together and then observe them under a microscope. If this is the image that you see, what can you conclude about the mating types of the yeast? Explain your answer, including what type of cell morphology you see on this microscope slide.arrow_forwardIn yeast, LYS5, ADE1, and URA2 are genes required to synthesize lysine, adenine and uracil, respectively. A MATa lys5 ADE1 URA2 haploid was mated to a MATA LYS5 ade1 ura2 haploid to make a triply heterozygous diploid. This diploid was put through meiosis, 100 tetrads were dissected and the spore colonies transferred to medium lacking either lysine, adenine or uracil to determine which spores were prototrophic or auxotrophic for those nutrients. The following results were obtained: LYS5-ADE1 ADE1-URA2 LYS5-URA2 PD NPD Ι 20 22 58 18 20 62 50 8 42 Based on this information, select the statements below that are TRUE.

However, a number of eukaryotic organisms spend most of their life cycles in a haploid state. Many of these eukaryotes, such as Neurospora and yeast, still undergo meiosis and sexual reproduction, but most of the cells that make up the organism are haploid. Considering that haploid organisms are fully capable of sexual reproduction and generating genetic variation, why are most complex eukaryotes diploid? In other words, what might be the evolutionary advantage of existing in a diploid state instead of a haploid state? And why might a few organisms, such as Neurospora and yeast, exist as haploids?arrow_forwardWhen comparing evolutionary similarities between different genes within a gene family, it is usually more straightforward to compare genes by using the protein sequences of gene products rather than DNA sequences of the genes themselves. Explain why this is the case. (Write 5 points)arrow_forward
