Which of the following Mendelian principles apply to linked genes?
a. Independent assortment
b. Segregation
c. Both
d. Neither
Law of Segregation (Mendelian principles) apply to linked genes because it stated the "During gamete formation, the alleles which are linked together(for each gene), they get segregate from each other so that each gamete carries only one allele for eacch gene.

14) Which of the following statements about independent assortment or segregation is correct? A) The law of independent assortment describes the behaviour of two or more genes relative to one another. B) The law of segregation describes the behaviour of two or more genes relative to one another C) The law of independent assortment is accounted for by observations of prophase I of meiosis. D) The law of segregation is accounted for by telophase of mitosis. The laws of segregation...
Which of these statements is incorrect? Syntenic genes are located on the same chromosome. Independent assortment results in recombinant chromosomes. You can reliably predict the relative genetic distance from genes’ physical distance on a chromosome. Linked genes are always syntenic. What is the relative genetic distance between two linked genes if the recombination frequency is 0.49? 0.49 cM 4.9 cM 49 cM 490 cM What statement best explains the distortion in Mendelian ratios observed by Bateson & Punnett in 1905?...
Mendel’s Law of Independent Assortment does not always hold true. Some genes are linked, and offspring that inherit one gene will also inherit others. In these cases where genes are linked, Explain how phenotypic traits that are potentially deleterious can persist in a population.
2. Mendel's Principle of Segregation (In the formation of gametes, the paired hereditary determinants (genes) separate (segregate) in such a way that each gamete is equally likely to contain either member of a pair) was later supported by microscopic studies of chromosome movement during meiosis. Which of the following symbolic representations best depicts the Principle of Segregation? A. AaBb cells ---------→ roughly 50% Aa gametes and 50% Bb gametes B. Aa cells ------------→ 100% Aa gametes C. AaBb cells -------->...
A chi-square test is done in which you compare your data to a hypothesis of independent assortment. You obtain a chi square value of 11.35 which works out to a P value of 0.01. based on this information, A.) you accept the hypothesis and conclude that the genes are unlinked B.) you except the hypothesis and conclude that the genes are linked C.) You rejected the hypothesis and conclusion at the genes are unlinked D.) you reject the hypothesis and...
Define Mendel's law of independent assortment. A) The expression of one gene has no effect on the expression of another gene. B) Segregation of homologous chromosomes is random. C) The inheritance of one character has no effect on the inheritance of another character. D) There are two versions of each trait, a dominant and a recessive; the one you get is random.
A bacterium with genotype A+B-C-was transduced by a particle carrying the linked genes A-B+C+, and A+B+C+ recombinants were selected. The reciprocal cross was also performed. The number of A+B+C+ recombinants was the same in both the first cross and the reciprocal cross. What information does this give you about the order of the three genes?
Question: A bacterium with genotype A+B-C-was transduced by a particle carrying the linked genes A-B+C+, and A+B+C+ recombinants were selected. The reciprocal cross was also performed. The number of A+B+C+ recombinants was the same in both the first cross and the reciprocal cross. What information does this give you about the order of the three genes? (please explain in as much details)- these genes are assumed as any random genes
31) During which of the following processes does independent assortment of chromosomes occur? A) in meiosis I only B) in meiosis II only C) in mitosis and meiosis I D) in mitosis and meiosis II Answer:
In Drosophila, the genes for black (b) body and curved (c) wings are linked on the same chromosome. The frequency of recombination between b---c is 0.276. How many recombinant offspring would be expected if 2000 progeny were produced from a testcross between a female heterozygous for both genes and a homozygous recessive male?
