1. In an a1 mutant haploid a-cell, which of these genes would be expressed: a-pheromone, a-pheromone receptor, a-pheromone or a-pheromone receptor?

2. a. A yeast a-cell develops a mutation in the HO endonuclease recognition sequence in the MATa region. What would be the consequence to that cell in terms of mating type switching and what would be the mating type of subsequent progeny cells?

b. A yeast a-cell develops a mutation in the HO endonuclease recognition sequence in the HMLa region. What would be the consequence to that cell in terms of mating type switching and what would be the mating type of subsequent progeny cells?

    2. A dominant allele H reduces the number of body bristles that Drosophila flies have, giving rise to a “hairless” phenotype. In the homozygous condition, H is lethal. An independently assorting dominant allele S has no effect on bristle number except in the presence of H, in which case a single dose of S suppresses the hairless phenotype, thus restoring the "hairy" phenotype. However, S also is lethal in the homozygous (S/S) condition. What ratio of hairy to hairless flies...

    Explain the following in terms a highschooler would understand (from article Expression of HoxD Genes in Developing and Regenerating Axolotl Limbs, 1998): DISCUSSION: Expression of HoxD genes in developing axolotl limb buds. We have examined the expression of Hoxd-8, Hoxd10, and Hoxd-11 genes in axolotl limb buds and find many similarities between the patterns of expression in axolotls and those described for other vertebrates. Similarities are most pronounced in phases I and II (Nelson et al., 1996; Shubin et al.,...
