    Drosophila melanogaster, the fruit fly, has a 2n chromosome number of 8 (4 chromosomes – 3 autosomes and 1 sex chromosome). Assume that you are microscopically examining the mitotic and meiotic cells of this organism. You note that in the female, two chromosomal pairs are metacentric and two pairs are acrocentric. Draw the chromosomal configurations as you would expect to see them at the stages listed: i. mitotic metaphase ii. primary oocyte (meiotic metaphase I) iii. secondary oocyte (meiotic metaphase...

    16. So far we have been dealing with alleles found on autosomal chromosomes. These chromosomes contain all the genetic information that is not gender related. As a human, you have 44 autosomal chromosomes (22 pairs → 11 chromosomes from your Mom and 11 chromosomes from your Dad). You also contain a pair of sex chromosomes. These chromosomes contain all the genetic information related to your gender. If you are female, you received an X chromosome from your Mom and an...
