- Results of Gergor Mendel's experiments with pea plants showed that heritable factors (genes) are particulate. Group of answer choices True Falsearrow_forwardYou do a testcross to map three genes, Ph, T, and Qc. In the table below, you will find the number of offspring that inherited each combination of alleles from the heterozygous parent. Make a genetic map and then report the genetic distance between each pair of genes to the nearest 0.1 cM. Ph gene T gene Qc gene counts ph Qc 304 Ph qc 301 Ph T. qc 172 ph Qc 169 ph T. qc 21 Ph Qc 19 Ph Qc ph t qc 6 Genetic distance from Ph to T: cM Genetic distance from T to Qc: cM Genetic distance from Ph to Qc: cMarrow_forwardThe process by which you get a different assortment of your 4 grandparents' genes (as compared to your siblings) is called Group of answer choices point mutation general mutation random/independent assortment crossover effect inheritancearrow_forward

Alleles for which of the gene pairs are least likely to be inherited together?

- In dogs, there is a hereditary deafness caused by a recessive gene (d). A kennel owner has a male dog that she wants to use for breeding purposes if possible. The dog can hear, so the owner knows his genotype is either DD or Dd. If the dog’s genotype is Dd, the owner does not wish to use him for breeding so that the deafness gene will not be passed on. This can be tested by breeding the dog to a deaf female (dd). Draw the Punnett squares to illustrate these two possible crosses. List all genotypes and phenotypes showing how many of the offspring would be normal and deaf.arrow_forwardNonearrow_forward
