Answer #1

A) needs more information about where the gene are located on the chromsome

B) the alleles for one gene cannot be in the somatic cells as somatic cells do not undergo meiosis.

C) option C is the best suitable among the others because the alleles that are the alternative forms of the gene are present on the homologous chromosome ie they are at the same loci carrying the gene for the same characterstic. The gametes then eventually fuse to form the zygote.Also during gamete formation the number of chromsome are reduced to half ie they will carry one gene for each characterstic.

D) phenotype can be determined but the fusion of the gametes is not clearly explained here.

Meiosis and Punnett Squares Remember, whenever you use Punnett Squares to solve genetics problems, be sure you are completing each of the following steps: 1) Identify the genotypes of the parents. 2) For the specific traits of interest, figure out what kinds of haploid gametes each parent can make. In each gamete, there should be one allele for each trait of interest. If there is more than one trait, make sure all...

  • what is the difference between heterozygous and homozygous individuals

    What is the difference between heterozygous and homozygous individuals? Homozygotes have one chromosome while heterozygotes have two similar chromosomes. The homozygote will express the dominant trait and the heterozygote will express the recessive trait. All of the gametes from a homozygote carry the same version of the gene while those of a heterozygote will differ. Heterozygotes carry two copies of a gene while homozygotes only carry one. When constructing a Punnett square, the symbols on the outside of the boxes...

    Mendelian Genetics The gene involved in the disease Sickle Cell Anemia (SCA) is on human chromosome 11. Allele “A” is the normal form of the gene and codes for a part of the protein complex called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is required for your blood cells to carry oxygen. Allele “a” is an abnormal form of the gene. The hemoglobin protein made from the “a” allele is defective. Red blood cells containing the defective protein are very fragile. This disease is recessive–meaning...
