Chapter 7, Problem 17aCP
Summary Introduction
To review:
Long term potentiation, its production and significance.
Introduction:
Repetitive utilization of a specific synaptic pathway can result in either increase or decrease in the strength of synaptic transmission over extended time periods. This may be mainly due to addition or removal of AMPA (α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid) type of glutamate receptors at the postsynaptic membrane. To be more precise, insertion of AMPA receptors produces long term potentiation while removal of AMPA receptors enables long term depression of synaptic transmission.

There is a species of eagle, which lives in a tropical forest in Brazil. The alula pattern of its wings is determined by a single autosomal gene with four alleles that exhibit an unknown hierarchy of dominance. Genetic testing shows that individuals 1-1, 11-4, 11-7, III-1, and III-4 are each homozygous.
How many possible genotypes among checkered eagles in the population?
