Homework Answers
Answer:
a) true,
b) true, in unlinked genes, it is by independent assortment. In linked genes, recombination occur by crossing over.
c) true, more than 50% recombination will not takes place, the crossing over events occur in equal frequency when genes are at opposite ends.
d) true, during crossing over, linkage in genes is broken and new genes are attached due to exchange of genetic material during meiosis.
e) true,

You see a recombination frequency of 50% between two genes. Which of the following possibilities can you exclude? That the genes are located close together on the same chromosome That the genes are on different chromosomes O That the genes are assorting independently That the genes are located on the same chromosome, but very far apart Meiosis contributes to genetic diversity by: o Reducing the number of chromosomes for karyogamy (fusion of nuclei) with another gamete O Recombining homologous chromosomes...

Which statement explains why the recombination frequency between two genes is always less than 50%? Recombination cannot be more than 50% because chromosomes are only 50 map units in length. The genotype of the F, gametes will always be 50% parental gametes and 50% recombinant gametes. Genes with a recombination frequency near 50% are unlinked and have an equal likelihood of being inherited together or separately. F1 gametes always have 50% of their alleles from each parental...

Assortment of genes on same chromosome In the fruit fly Drosophila, there is a dominant gene for normal wings and its recessive allele for vestigial wings. At another gene locus. there is a dominant gene for red eyes and its recessive allele for purple eyes. A female that was heterozygous at both gene loci was mated with a male that is homozygous for both recessive alleles. Knowing this, complete the sentences with the correct terms. 94% crossing over independent assortment...

16. Use the following information to answer the questions below. Drosophila (fruit flies) usually have long wings (+) but mutations in two different genes can result in bent wings (bt) or vestigial wings (vg). If a homozygous bent wing fly is mated with a homozygous vestigial wing fly, which of the following offspring would you expect? a. 1/2 bent and vestigial to 1/2 normal b. 1/2 bent and 1/2 vestigial flies c. 3/4 bent to 1/4 vestigial ratio d. all...

7.) Haemophilia is an X-linked recessive disorder. If a male haemophiliac mates with a normal (non-haemophiliac) homozygous woman, would the progeny be affected? a. All males would be carriers. All females would be normal. b. All males would be normal. Half of the females would be carriers and half of the females would have haemophilia. c. All males would be normal. All females would be carriers. d. Half of each sex would be normal and half of each sex would...

The results for the F2 progeny are shown for a F1 cross using
the two X-linked markers:
w+ and m+.
As shown in the figure, the F1 cross is between the following
two parents:
- a phenotypically wild-type (red eye, full wing), heterozygous
female: w+m+/wm
- a double mutant male (white eye, miniature wing):
wm/Y
Answer the following questions:
1) In the F1 cross, can you infer the genotype for the phenotype
in the female? Why or why not?

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?...
