15) A company provides genetic analysis to people who want to learn more about their ancestors. One couple sent the company samples of their biological children's cells as well as samples of their own cells for testing. Which of the following describes how the genetic material in the chromosomes of the children will compare to the genetic material in the chromosomes of the parents? A. Each child will have all of the mother's genetic material and all of the father's genetic material. B. The daughters will have exactly the same genetic material as the mother, and the sons will have exactly the same genetic material as the father. C. About half of the genetic material in each child will be the same as the mother's, and about half of the genetic material will be the same as the father's. D. Half of the children will have exactly the same genetic material as the mother, and half of the children will have exactly the same genetic material as the father

ATR is a protein kinase that is activated by double stranded DNA breaks. a) True Ob) False

7. In gene therapy an attempt is made to transfer a "normal" gene into the cells of a person who lacks copies of the "normal" gene. Why would scientists and the government be more receptive to somatic gene therapy than to germline gene therapy? 8. Answer the following questions for the two following pedigrees In Pedigree A, is the red highlighted trait dominant or recessive? Why? а. b. What is the genotype of individual C? In Pedigree B, is the red highlighted trait dominant or recessive? Why? а. d. What is the genotype of individual D? Pedigree A Pedigree B :mele =foncle I fenole toffected effected 9. Make a pedigree for each of the following situations. For each individual, write the individual's genotype (when possible) next to the individual's symbol (e.g. O x*Y, Gg): a. Two parents do not have cystic fibrosis and they have a daughter with cystic fibrosis and a son who does not have cystic fibrosis. The daughter grows up and she mates with a male who does not have cystic fibrosis.…

A cytogeneticist has collected tissue samples from members of a certain butterfly species. Some of the butterflies were located in Canada, and others were found in Mexico. Through karyotyping, the cytogeneticist discovered that chromosome 5 of the Canadian butterflies has a large inversion compared with chromosome 5 of the Mexican butterflies. The Canadian butterflies were inversion homozygotes, whereas the Mexican butterflies had two normal copies of chromosome 5. 1) Would a cross between Mexican and Canadian butterflies produce phenotypically normal offspring? and  2) Would the offspring of the cross (so F2 generation) be fertile?

Which of the following best describes the concept of independent assortment? Group of answer choices a. 2n, where n = number of chromosomes   b. Gametes receive one of each chromosome pair but which chromosome it receives is decided randomly   c. Refers to the Mendelian genetics   d. Independent assortment always occurs at prophase 2 in eukaryotic organisms.   e. Is the process of specified segregation and assortment of chromosomes in an organism.

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 = 30Select the row that correctly shows the ploidy for the trout at different reproductive stages. Select one: a. Female Egg Male Sperm Offspring Produced in wild Offspring Produced in lab n = 30 2n = 60 3n = 90 2n = 60 b. Female Egg Male Sperm Offspring Produced in wild Offspring Produced in lab 2n = 60 n = 30 2n = 60 2n = 60 c. Female Egg Male Sperm Offspring Produced in wild Offspring Produced in lab 2n = 60 n = 30…

Warming has caused the temperatures in lakes and rivers to increase and stay elevated for longer periods of time. 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.

7. The following diagram shows 2 pairs of autosomal chromosomes in a karyotype of a biological woman. Based on the karyotype, a genetic counsellor determined that there is evidence that a translocation occurred between two non-homologous chromosomes. The other 21 pairs of chromosomes are NOT shown in this diagram. Assume no chromosomal aberrations occurred in the other chromosomes. As a student-researcher, the genetic counsellor asks you if you can determine whether the translocation occurred in a somatic cell, germ-line cell, or whether this can even be determined from the figure? Provide an answer and the reasoning for your answer. D
