Answer #1

1. The individual 1 is the carrier of the disease alkaptonuria as 2 of it's child are affected so the genotype for the disease would be ALK+/ALK- and for the blood group it would be AO.

2. As one of the parent of individual 3 is affected with the disease hence the genotype for the affected individual would be heterozygous viz. ALK+/ALK- and it's blood group would be BO.

    Paragraph - Individual 5 The 2 alleles at the ALK locus are denoted ALK+ and ALK. The 3 alleles at the ABO blood group locus are A, B (co-dominant) and 0 (the 0 allele is recessive to A and B). Example: Individual 5 has a genotype of ALK-ALK- for alkaptonuria and 00 for blood type Genotype Individual 5 ALK-ALK-00 (both mutant ALK alleles and Type O blood) Questions 1. What is the genotype of individual 1 at the ALK and...

    a.) ABO blood types are determined by a single gene with 3 alleles. Alleles A (IA) and B (IB) are co-dominant to allele O (i). Cecilia, a woman with blood type A whose father and mother both had blood types AB, marries a man named Joseph. Joseph has blood type B. Joseph’s mother had blood type O.   What is Cecilia’s genotype with respect to blood type? b.) ABO blood types are determined by a single gene with 3 alleles. Alleles...

    With respect to genetics, ABO blood types are controlled by a single gene designated I, which has three alleles. The I A allele gives blood type A, I B gives blood type B, and i gives blood type O. The I A and I B alleles are codominant and i allele is recessive to both the I A and I B alleles. Aside from the I alleles, there are two other genes that when mutated affect ABO blood type inheritance....

    ABO blood types are determined by 3 alleles at an autosomal locus: IA and IB are codominant, and iO is recessive. Assuming H-W equilibrium, if the frequency of the iO allele is 0.1 and the frequency of the IAallele is 0.6, predict the frequency of all 4 blood types in the population (type A, type B, type AB, and type O).  

  • Consider a locus of interest that has two alleles: A and a. A diploid individual carrying...

    Consider a locus of interest that has two alleles: A and a. A diploid individual carrying these alleles can have one of three genotypes: AA, Aa, or aa; a population will consist of some combination of AA, Aa, and aa individuals. The relatively frequency of each of these genotypes makes up the population's structure. Hardy and Weinberg independently figured out that, in the absence of forces that cause evolutionary change, the population structure will 'settle' or default to equilibrium values,...

    In chickens, comb shape is determined by alleles at two loci. A walnut comb is produced when at least one dominant allele A is present at one locus and at least one dominant allele B is present at the second locus. A rose comb is produced when at least one dominant allele is present at the “A-locus” and two recessive alleles are present at the “B-locus”. A pea comb is produced when two recessive alleles are present at the “A-locus”...

    In simple Mendelian inheritance alleles display a simple dominant/recessive relationship. There are many exceptions to Mendelian laws of inheritance. Most genes have more than two allelic forms and do not exhibit simple Mendelian inheritance. The human ABO antigens are an example of a multiple allelic trait. There are three ABO blood group antigens, IA, IB and i. The i allele is recessive to both IA and IB. A person who is homozygous ii has type O blood and does not...

    ABO BLOOD TYPE The ABO blood groups in humans are determined by multiple alleles. A single gene can exist in any of three allelic forms: 14, Bor i. This inheritance of the ABO blood type displays codominance as well as complete dominance. The two codominant genes A and B code for production of antigen A and antigen B on the surface of red blood cells, and are both completely dominant to the recessive allele i. The chart below shows the...

    For these questions, you are using the A, B, and O to represent the alleles in this example. The ABO blood system works in a Mendelian fashion, but has 3 possible alleles at one locus (A, B, and O alleles). Each person can have only 2 of those alleles in their genotype. A and B are both dominant (and so can be co-dominant), and O is recessive to both A and B. So, for example, if you have B blood...

    Question 11 6 pts The MN blood type locus (autosomal, two alleles -- Mor N, codominance) and the beta hemoglobin locus are linked. The two loci show a recombination frequency of 0.34 in men and 0.50 in women. Ray is a carrier for sickle cell anemia (mutant allele of the beta hemoglobin locus) and has MN blood. His mother had N blood and was also a sickle cell carrier. His father had M blood and normal hemoglobin alleles. Ray and...
