- What percentage of the DNA in the genome actually corresponds to genes? How much is actually protein-coding exons? What makes up the rest?arrow_forwardWhich 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_forward
- Part A: If the two genes are 30 mu apart and the plant is (AB/ab), what proportion of gametes from a single plant will be AB? Enter your answer as a decimal to three places (for example: 0.120). Part B: If the two genes are 30 mu apart and the plant is (AB/ab), what proportion of gametes from a single plant will be Ab? Part C: If the two genes are 30 mu apart and the plant is (AB/ab), what proportion of gametes from a single plant will be aB? Part D: If the two genes are 30 mu apart and the plant is (AB/ab), what proportion of gametes from a signal plant will be ab?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. Select 4 correct answer(s) A) The LYS5 and URA2 genes are linked. B) The genotypes of the four spores in the ADE1-URA2 tetratypes is ade1 ura2 ade1 URA2 ADE1 ura2 ADE1 URA2 C) The map distance between ADE1 and URA2 is 51 CM. D) ADE1 and URA2 are likely located on the same chromosome. E) The map distance between LYS5 and URA2 is 29 CM. ☐ F) LYS5 and ADE1 independently assort…arrow_forwardBased on the data in Table 1, which individual(s) is/are heterozygous?

- The image shows the genetic code of an organism before and after the occurrence of a spontaneous error during chromosomal crossover. G-T-G-C-C-A-T-C-A → G-T-G-T-C-A Based on the information provided, which type of mutation most likely occurred? O deletion O nondisjunction O substitution O translocationarrow_forwardA panel of cell lines was created by human-mouse somatic-cell hybridization. Each cell line was examined for the presence of human chromosomes and for the production of three enzymes. The following results were obtained: Human chromosomes Enzyme 1 2 3 Cell line 4 8 9 12 15 16 17 22 X A D - + + + + On the basis of these results, give the chromosomal locations of the genes encoding enzyme 1, enzyme 2, and enzyme 3.arrow_forwardWhat is the most ideal genetic model organism and discuss why?arrow_forward
- How is it possible for humans to differ genetically from each other if we all have the same genes arranged in the same order on our chromosomes?arrow_forwardDuring the course of a research project you generate a gene knockout line in Arabidopsis thaliana to study the function of a gene you believe plays a crucial role in cellular metabolism. You note that the initial transformants are a bit smaller than normal. In subsequent crosses you are unable to isolate homozygotes for the knockout allele. Heterozygotes in subsequent generation are still a bit smaller than the homozygous wild type plants. Explain what is happening.arrow_forwardWhat is the relationship between linked genes and syntenic genes? Are syntenic genes always linked? Are linked genes always syntenic?
