The phenomenon in which gene present on the same chromosome remain together as gametes are produced is knows as A.) non-disjunction B.) cross-over C.) synapsis D.) linkage 2.) Queen Victoria was a carrier of hemophilia, but there is no record of the disease in any of her ancestors. It is reasonable to suggest that she became a carrier of hemophilia as a result of A.) recombination B.) a mutation C.) inbreeding D.) crossing over 3.) How many primary spermatocytes and primary Oo Yates are required to produced 100 sperm and 100 eggs?

- The oncogenic protein BETA promotes entry into the S phase of the cell cycle. Phosphorylation of BETA at the amino acid Tyr98 causes BETA to be degraded by the proteasome, thus limiting its abundance. A mutation in the codon encoding Tyr98 changes this residue to Cys, which cannot be phosphorylated. What is the best description of this mutant allele?a) antimorphb) hypermorphc) hypomorphd) amorphe) neomorpharrow_forwardWhy is a chromosomal fragment without a centromeresubsequently lost and degraded?arrow_forwardA. Please explain the key differences between each of the following pairs of terms. (i) Haploid vs. monoploid (ii) Pericentric inversion vs. paracentric inversion (Please include a simple diagram, along with your written explanation.) (iii) Homologous chromosomes vs. homeologous chromosomes:arrow_forward

Explain.arrow_forwardSelect all correct answers. If chromosomes spontaneously double in a diploid somatic cell, the resulting cell (after the doubling) will be: A.)tetraploid B.)allopolyploid C.)tetrasomic D.)aneuploid E.)autopolyploid F.)disomic G.)euploidarrow_forwardWhich type(s) of chromosomal aberrations result from chromosomal breaks on different chromosomes? Assume that a heterozygote for the aberration is viable. Select all correct answers.
