- Usually, if a gene that affects a particular genetic trait is NOT located on a sex chromosome, then consequently (click all that apply) it is an autosomal gene. a diploid cell should have at least two copies of this gene during G1 phase. this gene will be absent from the genomes of gametes. this trait should appear with roughly equal frequency in males and females. this trait must be “dominant.”arrow_forwardLook at the chart above, which shows a dihybrid cross for two brown horses, which leads to brown, tan and white offspring.

- Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) is used to test for genetic disorders in the fetus and can be performed early in gestation (8-10 wks). The recommended method of CVS is to sert a probe with a needle on the end through the cervix and remove a small sample of e chorionic villi to be analyzed. Which description is a correct description of chorionic villi? Select one: They are found in the digestive tract of the fetus. They are developed from the endometrium. They contain cells whose nuclei differ genetically from cells of the fetus. They form part of the placenta.arrow_forwardExplain this to me…..arrow_forwardWhat is/are the possible genotype(s) of this cat for the Sex-linked Red gene?

Group of answer choices 1. men acquire two copies of the defective gene during fertilization. 2. men need to inherit only one copy of the recessive allele for the condition to be fully expressed. 3. the sex chromosomes are more active in men than in women. 4. the genes associated with the sex-linked conditions are linked to the Y chromosome, which determines maleness.arrow_forward
