- In humans, as well as in many other animals and some plants, the sex of the individual is determined by sex chromosomes. The sex chromosomes are one pair of non-homologous chromosomes: XX represents a female, while XY represents a male. When a gene for a specific trait Is attached to the X or Y chromosome, we say it is sex-linked, and when it is attached to the X chromosome, we say it is X-linked. Alleles for these linked traits, such as hemophilia or color blindness, crosses, may be recessive or dominant. This is one possible cross (above) for the X-linked condition known as hemophilia. Which pair of parents is most likely to have a hemophiliac daughter? A) carrier mother and unaffected father B) carrier mother and hemophiliac father hemophiliac mother and a carrier father D) unaffected, non-carrier mother and hemophiliac fatherarrow_forwardX( 13 19 Karyotype 5 2 ( ( }{ } } } } 14 20 16 }} 17 18 Chromosomal Aberrancy/Name of Syndrome: Description of Symptoms:arrow_forwardExplain this to me…..arrow_forward
- Mutant female: yellow body and purple eyes. Male: Normal Use: https://www.sciencecourseware.org/FlyLabJS/ Which mutant alleles are dominant? Which mutant alleles are recessive? Which mutant alleles are sex-linked? Which mutant alleles are autosomal? Can you tell at this point if the two genes are linked? Show the results of the dihybrid analysis. Are genes segregating independently? What is the evidence for or against this? Show the crosses you will use to obtain the mapping data. For the mapping crosses, Write out the crossing scheme and make a table of the results (ignore sex in this table, combine the male and female progeny). Identify the parental classes and the recombinant classes. For a 3-point cross, identify the double cross overs. Show your calculations for the recombination frequencies between the three genes (for the 3-point cross) or the two genes (for the two-point crosses). Draw a map of the Drosophila chromosomes 2, 3, and X, including…arrow_forwardOcular albinism is a sex-linked recessive disease carried on the X chromosome. A female carrier mates with a male with this disorder. What percentage of all of their children is predicted to be an albino female? 1) 0% 2) 25% 3) 50% 4) 75% 5) 100%arrow_forwardIn humans, the gene for albinism (a) is recessive to the gene for normal skin pigmentation (A). If two heterozygous persons have children, what is the probability they will have a child who is an albino? What is the probability they will have a child that is a carrier of the recessive gene?arrow_forward
- Which of the Pedigree Diagrams below is most likely to show a family with Becker muscular dystrophy?arrow_forwardIn human beings, the gene for red‑green colorblindness (r) is sex‑linked and recessive to its allele for normal vision (R), while the gene for freckles (F) is autosomal and dominant over its allele for nonfreckled (f). A nonfreckled, normal‑visioned woman whose father was freckled and colorblind, marries a freckled, colorblind man whose mother was nonfreckled. What is the probability that the first child born to the couple will either be a freckled, colorblind boy or a non‑freckled, normal visioned girl or a non-freckled, normal visioned boy? What is the probability that the first four children born to the couple will be freckled and normal visioned girls?arrow_forwardWhich of the 6 modes is this pedigree and why? 1) Autosomal Dominant 2) Autosomal Recessive 3) X-linked Recessive 4) X - linked Dominant 5) Y-Linked 6) mt-Linkedarrow_forward
