- Let's consider a paternally imprinted gene. A female skink inherited alleles that that confer: 1) a mutant violet tail-color in the egg and 2) a mutant violet tail-color allele in the sperm. A male skink mate inherited a wild-type blue allele from the sperm and a mutant violet allele from the egg. They have 500 offspring. a. What tail color phenotypes do the parent male and parent female skinks have? Briefly explain your reasoning. female = male = b. What fraction of the offspring do you expect to have each phenotype (blue and violet tail color)? Briefly explain your reasoning/show your work.arrow_forwardThis pedigree (below) shows inheritance of a genetic disorder in a family. Assume the trait is rare. What is the mode of inheritance for this trait? [Select] You know this because that mode of inheritance is characterized by: [ Select] • An affected male parent passes the allele to [Select] and [Select] individuals who have the allele express it and and [Select] of his daughters. • An affected female parent passes the allele to [Select] of her daughters. ㅇㅁㅇㅁ î то ◆ of his sons of her so ?arrow_forwardJoseph is heterozygous for the traits F (dominant to f) and B (dominant to b)and his genes are in cis, and these locuses are on the same chromosome and separated by 30 map units. Sara is also heterozygous for these traits but here genes are in trans. Calculate how likely it would be to observe an individual who is homozygous dominant for the genes F and B. Be sure to show your work for full credit.arrow_forward
- Tay-Sachs disease is a rare human disease in which toxic substances accumulate in nerve cells. The recessive allele responsible for the disease is inherited in a simple Mendelian manner. For unknown reasons, the allele is more common in populations of Ashkenazi Jews of eastern Europe. A woman is planning to marry her first cousin, but the couple discovers that their shared grandfather’s sister died in infancy of Tay-Sachs disease.a. Draw the relevant parts of the pedigree, and show all the genotypes as completely as possible. b. What is the probability that the cousins’ first child will have Tay-Sachs disease, assuming that all people who marry into the family are homozygous normal?arrow_forwardIn the world of Weeping angels, those with pointy wings are (A_), while those with round wings are (aa). In the efforts to explore this extraordinary species, you wish to determine the genotype of a pointy winged angel. Luckily, you have trapped a round winged angel that you can cross your pointy winged angel with. If the pointy winged angel is homozygous what phenotypic ratio do you expect from their offspring? (Pointy wing: round wing) Group of answer choices a. 1:0 b. 2:1 c. 1:1 d. 3:1arrow_forwardBased upon the above pedigree, How is this trait inherited. Please give specific evidence by identifying each generation by roman numeral, each person within that generation numerically, and stating which individuals support your claim. Look CAREFULLY!arrow_forward
- Can you please not type the answer can you write it on a paperarrow_forwardIn the red backed vole (a small mouse-like mammal) there are two traits under investigation. The first trait is a distinct tuft of long hairs at the tip of the tail with a tufted tail being recessive to non-tufted tail. The letter T is used to represent the tail tuft gene. The second trait is a patch of red fur on the head which is known to be recessive to the more common lack of a red patch. The letter R is used to represent this trait. A female to be used in the cross was drawn from a pure breeding line that consistently has both the red patch on the head and a tufted tail. The female is to be crossed with a male from a highly variable wild population. The male used had no red head patch and a normal (untufted) tail. The results were as follows: 7 red head patch with tail tuft, 8 no red head patch with tail tuft, 8 red head patch without tail tuft, 8 no red head patch without tail tuft. What would the results be if the male was crossed with a female that was known to be…arrow_forwardIt would be nice if you can give me some explanation please Number 6arrow_forward
