Chapter 3, Problem 20P
A rooster with a particular comb morphology called walnut was crossed to a hen with a type of comb morphology known as single. The F1 progeny all had walnut combs. When F males and females were crossed to each other, 93 walnut and 11 single combs were seen among the F progeny, but there were also 29 birds with a new kind of comb called rose and 32 birds with another new comb type called pea.
| a. Explain how comb morphology is inherited. |
| b. What progeny would result from crossing a homozygous rose-combed hen with a homozygous pea-combed rooster? What |
| c. A particular walnut rooster was crossed to a pea hen, and the progeny consisted of 12 walnut, 11 pea, 3 rose, and 4 single chickens. What are the likely genotypes of the parents |
| d. A different walnut rooster was crossed to a rose hen, and all the progeny were walnut. What are the possible genotypes of the parents? |

You inject morpholino oligonucleotides that inhibit the translation of follistatin, chordin, and noggin (FCN) at the 1 cell stage of a frog embryo.
What is the effect on neurulation in the resulting embryo?
Propose an experiment that would rescue an embryo injected with FCN morpholinos.
Participants will be asked to create a meme regarding a topic relevant to the department of Geography, Geomatics, and Environmental Studies.
Prompt: Using an online art style of your choice, please make a meme related to the study of Geography, Environment, or Geomatics.
Plekhg5 functions in bottle cell formation, and Shroom3 functions in neural plate closure, yet the phenotype of injecting mRNA of each into the animal pole of a fertilized egg is very similar. What is the phenotype, and why is the phenotype so similar?
Is the phenotype going to be that there is a disruption of the formation of the neural tube for both of these because bottle cell formation is necessary for the neural plate to fold in forming the neural tube and Shroom3 is further needed to close the neural plate? So since both Plekhg5 and Shroom3 are used in forming the neural tube, injecting the mRNA will just lead to neural tube deformity?
