In Figure 3-17, in which bar of the histogram would the genotype R1/r1 • R2 /R2 • r3/r3 be found?(picture addded)
What does the symbol arg-1 mean? How would you test for this genotype?
From a cross (Xyz) / (xYZ) x (xyz) / (xyz), where X,x, Y,y and Z,z represent alleles of three linked genes whose relative order is unknown, the least frequent classes of progeny are genotype (xyz) / (xyz) and (XYZ) / (xyz). What is the correct relative order of genes X, Y and Z?
Answer using lowercase letters separated by a dash (-). Example: x-y-z

- Hemophilia is an X-linked disease associated with the inability to produce specific proteins in the blood-clotting pathway. Shown above is a family pedigree tree in which family members afflicted with the disease are shown with filled-in squares (male) or circles (females). A couple is trying to determine the likelihood of passing on the disease to their future children (represented by the ? symbol above) because the hemophilia runs in the woman’s family 4.Assuming that the woman in the couple is a carrier, what is the probability that the couple’s first son will have hemophilia?arrow_forwardThe genotype of EB27 and EB67 are unknown.

- Can you draw punnet square for F1 and F2 for this crossarrow_forwardCystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that causes an abnormal production of mucus which in turn can cause damage and infection to the lungs and other organs. In the following pedigree, black indicates all those persons afflicted with cystic fibrosis (square symbols are males, circles are females). There's a healthy couple and they have two children. One is a 23-year-old daughter with cystic fibrosis who is married to a 24-year-old male who is healthy. The other child is a 15-year-old son who is healthy After studying the pedigree, write a logical hypothesis suggesting the cause of cystic fibrosis in terms of dominant or recessive alleles. On the basis of your hypothesis, write an appropriate genotype for both of the parents. Using a Punnett square, what is the probability of the parents having a child with cystic fibrosis? If the daughter's husband is a carrier of cystic fibrosis, what is the probability that they have a child with cystic fibrosis? Show your Punnett square.arrow_forwardUsing the given pedigree chart, suppose individuals III-1 and III-2 are expecting their sixth child.
