a.

Summary Introduction

To determine:  The trait as recessive or dominant according to the offspring produced.

Introduction. The genetic material is all the living organism is the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). All the eukaryotes as well the prokaryotes have defined set of DNA sequence, which is inherited from one generation to another and codes for all the characters of the organism.

b.

Summary Introduction

To determine:  The presence of trait as autosomal or sex linked.

Introduction. The DNA (deoxyribose nucleic acid) is made up of stacks of nucleotides that are joined to each other by phosphodiester bond vertically and horizontally by H-bonds. The adenine and thymine forms two H-bonds while the bases guanine and cytosine forms three H-bonds.

c.

Summary Introduction

To determine:  The genotypes of parent and progeny.

Introduction. The process of DNA replication is the process by which the genetic material of the organism copies itself to be distributed among the daughter cells during cell division. The DNA replication takes place before the cell division and prepares the cell for mitosis and meiosis. This process is followed by transcription and translation

a) Which of the four modes of inheritance are consistent with the disease shown in this human pedigrees below? (List the compatible mode or modes) Give an answer for a, b and c b) If the parents in pedigree c have 2 other children, what is the probability that they will carry the disease?
In fruit flies, ken– is the mutant allele of a gene and ken+ is the wild-type allele. vg- is the mutant allele of the vestigial gene and vg+ is the wild-type allele. Both phenotypes show an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance. Which of the following fly genotypes should result in a wild-type fly? (Select all that apply.)
IN DROSOPHILA, AN X-LINKED RECESSIVE MUTATION, Xm CAUSES MINIATURE WINGS. LIST THE F₂ PHENOTYPIC RATIOS IF: A MINIATURE-WINGED FEMALE IS CROSSED WITH A NORMAL MALE AND A MINIATURE-WINGED MALE IS ● ● CROSSED WITH A NORMAL FEMALE. WHAT WOULD THE PHENOTYPIC RATIO FROM (A) BE IF THE MINIATURE- WINGED GENE WERE AUTOSOMAL? ASSUME IN ALL CASES THAT THE P1 INDIVIDUALS ARE TRUE-BREEDING.
