Mutations in DNA that result in altered proteins can causehereditary diseases. Pedigree studies and genetic testing mayclarify the risk of disease. At the chromosome level, nondisjunctionduring meiosis can result in gametes with too few or too manychromosomes, most of which produce inviable offspring.Imprinting refers to inactivation of alleles depending on whichparent the alleles come from; offspring in whom imprinting occursappear haploid for the affected gene even though they are diploid. During spermatogenesis, is there any difference in outcome between first- and second-division nondisjunction?
You are an allele on a single uncondensed chromosome in a Yellowfever-carrying mosquito (Aedes aegypti) diploid cell (2n = 6). Demonstrate in as much detail as possible (1) how you will get to each genetically identical diploid cell of the multicellular offspring; (2) how you will get to the next generation of sexually reproduced progeny. Help, I no understand. Perhaps you will?
Background Info Rainbow trout go through a unique genetic reproductive process. Female eggs are diploid, while male sperm are haploid. In the wild, when the sperm fertilizes an egg, the extra set of chromosomes is kicked out, resulting in a diploid offspring.Triploid trout are produced in the lab to provide sterile fish stock for lakes. Shortly after the eggs are fertilized, scientists place them in a warm water bath to prevent the extra chromosomes from being removed. The result is a triploid fish that cannot reproduce.Rainbow Trout: n = 30 Global warming is an issue affecting many species around the world. Warming has caused the temperatures in lakes and rivers to increase and stay elevated for longer periods of time. Question Select the FOUR numbers that describe the possible effects of global warming on the reproduction of rainbow trout in the wild and on biodiversity. The extra set of chromosomes remains. The extra set of chromosomes is removed. The offspring are diploid (2n).…
Deletion mapping: In your diploid model organism, one copy of the chromosome has all normal, dominant alleles of these genes. It is P Q R STU V (not necessarily in that order). But the other copy of the chromosome has all recessive alleles, p q r stu v. You find various deletions in which chunks of the "dominant chromosome" are missing, and so there are recessive phenotypes as shown: Phenotype -- recessive for genes... T, Q, and U R, V, and S T and U S and V Q, P, and R R and S First deletion Second deletion Third deletion Fourth deletion Fifth deletion Sixth deletion Seventh deletion T and Q Figure out the order of the genes. Show some kind of work.
. The human IGF2 gene is autosomal and maternallyimprinted. Copies of the gene received from themother are not expressed, but copies received fromthe father are expressed. You have found two allelesof this gene that encode two different forms of theIGF2 protein distinguishable by gel electrophoresis.One allele encodes a 60K (Kilodalton) blood protein;the other allele encodes a 50K blood protein. In ananalysis of blood proteins from a couple named Billand Joan, you find only the 60K protein in Joan’sblood and only the 50K protein in Bill’s blood. Youthen look at their children: Jill is producing only the50K protein, while Bill Jr. is producing only the 60Kprotein.a. With these data alone, what can you say about theIGF2 genotype of Bill Sr. and Joan?b. Bill Jr. and a woman named Sara have two children, Pat and Tim. Pat produces only the 60K protein and Tim produces only the 50K protein. Withthe accumulated data, what can you now say aboutthe genotypes of Joan and Bill Sr.?

n corn, male sterility is controlled by maternal cytoplasmic elements. This phenotype renders the male part of the corn plants (i.e the tassel) unable to produce fertile pollen; the female parts, however, remain receptive to pollination by pollen from male fertile corn plants.
