true for false? 1a) In Drosophila flies, there are wing shapes such as curly, apterous, miniature and others. These would be considered continuous traits (as opposed to discontinuous traits). 1b) The reason we assess the narrow sense heritability is because there are hidden genetic components that are simply too difficult to include in the calculation of VG 1c) You can figure out the heritability of a trait if you compare the variation of the trait in a clonal population of organisms to a wild type (heterogeneous) population.
1. In a wild strain of tomato plants, the phenotypic variance for tomato weight is 3.2g². In another strain of highly inbred tomatoes raised under same environmental conditions, the phenotypic variance is 2.2 g². With regard to wild strain a. What is VG b. What is h₂² C. Assuming that all of the genetic variance is additive what is h²
Monohybrid crosses Using Punnet square
If we neglect any possible environmental effects, dominance, linkage, or epistasis, and assume that each effective allele makes the same additive contribution, how many pairs of polygenes are involved?
Pitcher plants can take many forms. You are interested in understanding the genetic control of pitcher formation in pitcher plants. Which of the following is not likely a result you would expect from your QTL study? AV O a. Variation in pitcher size in your F2 population does not exceed that of your parental generation. O b. You were able to reconstitute the phenotypes of the parental generation by selectively breeding F2 individuals. O c. The variation in phenotypes is greater in the F1 population compared to the F2 population. O d. The phenotypes you are interested exhibit a typical Mendelian inheritance.
When a Chinese hamster with white spots is crossed with another hamster that has no spots, approximately 12 of the offspring have white spots and 12 have no spots. When two hamsters with white spots are crossed, 23 of the offspring possess white spots and 13 have no spots. Q. What is the genetic basis of white spotting in Chinese hamsters?
1. Consider a locus having two alleles Aj and A2, If the homozygote A1A1 and the heterozygote A1A2 have the same fitness of 1, and the homozygote A2A2 has a fitness s+1, then phenomenon is called complete dominance. What will be the change in the frequency of allele A2 per generation ?

You have just started working in a field research laboratory focused on a species of Redtailed Hawks. They have been trying to understand the heritability of wingspan in this species. They've studied them in 2 different contexts. In the wild, and in an indoor enclosure that is temperature controlled and provides them with a standardized diet, eliminating environmental variance. In the wild, the total variance was determined to be 24 inches. In the enclosure, total variance between subjects was found to be 8 inches. In the enclosure, what is the VEnvironmental VTotal = VGenetic + %3D Environmental H? = VGenetic/ VTotal %3D
