They are genetically similar.arrow_forward5arrow_forwardIf a cell that had two copies of each chromosome, but problems with the spindle caused the sister chromatids to remain attached to each other and to only one spindle pole, what cells would result? a) cells with 2 copies of each chromosome and 2 copies of each chromosome b) cells with 3 copies of each chromosome and 1 copy of each chromosome c) cells with 6 copies of each chromosome and 2 copies of each chromosome d) cells with 4 copies of each chromosome and 0 copies of each chromosome e) cells with 1 copy of each chromosome and 1 copy of each chromosomearrow_forward
- During meiotic prophase in a eukaryotic cell, Spo11 initiates recombination by causing a double-strand break in DNA between Gene A and Gene B on one sister chromatid. Which of these events will occur prior to formation of a Holliday junction? A) A heteroduplex forms due to pairing of Gene A and Gene B. B) Resolvase cuts all four chromatids. C) Spo11 causes a double-strand break in a nonsister chromatid. D) Strand invasion causes one strand of the uncut chromatid to form a D loop. E) Branch migration lengthens the heteroduplex region to include Gene A and Genearrow_forwardVariations in chromosome structure are important for which of the following reason(s)?Question 5 options: A) evolution of new species B) may result in the production of abnormal offspring C) may alter the phenotype of an organism D) all of the answers are correctarrow_forwardHello, i understand the question, but i only need to know which option is right, no need for explanation. thanks in advance.arrow_forward

- The figure below shows the life cycle of the fungus Neurospora. The adult stage of the Neurospora is a multicellular haploid: a. Between which two stages of the Neurospora life cycle do most mitotic cell divisions occur? b. Neurospora has an arginine amino acid synthesis pathway shown below: Suppose I have a neurospora strain that has a mutation such that it will not grow unless I supplement the media (food) with arginine (but not with citrulline or ornithine). What gene is mutated? Explain your reasoning. c. Suppose I take the strain above that only grows with arginine supplements and cross it to a different mutant Neurospora strain that grows with arginine and citrulline supplements but not ornithine supplements. Assming genes A, B and C are unlinked and there is only one mutation per strain: i) What percentage of the progeny will grow on ornithine? ii) What percentage on citrulline? iii) What percentage on arginine? Show your work for i), ii) and iii).
