Homework Answers
The hermaphroditic nematode worms of C.Elegans can reproduce either by self fertilization or by mating with males.
A self fertilizing hermaphrodite can produce around 300 offspring before sperm depletion,an outcrossed hermaphrodite supplied with plenty of virile males can produce as many as 1400 offspring.

You think you have discovered a novel toxin-antidote selfish genetic element in strain T elegans in which the toxin is produced by the embryo and the antidote is deposited by the mother. You cross strain T with strain U, which lacks the selfish genetic element to produce an F1 hybrid strain. What percentage of offspring would die from the following genetic crosses? Please answer by indicating"N96," where N is the percentage of offspring who would die. F1 male x F1...

What do you think of genetic engineering? Are GMO's good or bad? With genetically engineering humans, should we be tampering with the human genome? Do you think humans can stick to a limit (only curing diseases) or do you think humans would begin engineering people? Describe your thoughts on genetic engineering and molecular Biology. Your post must be at least 100 words and reply to at least two other peers.

How you think the allele frequencies are being affected by genetic drift in our simulation. Do you think this is speeding up or slowing down the rate of allele change? Why? Plot a graph of the H (p) allele frequency over generational time (show a minimum of three generations) showing what you would expect to happen if both natural selection and genetic drift are happening. Make sure to explain why you think this pattern would occur

(9 points) You are interested in studying recombination frequencies in wasps. You identify a queen that is heterozygous at three different loci on chromosome 5: G, H, and R. As queen wasps can produce haploid male offspring without fertilizing their eggs, you decide to look only at the genotypes of her male offspring in your analysis. Below is a list of the genotypes of her male offspring, and the number of individuals that fall into each genotypic class. 92 168...

A number of different genetic variations can result in differences in sex differentiation, such that there are biological females who are genetically 46, XY and biological males who are 46, Xx. One example of this is 46, xx SRY-negative males. These individuals do not have an SRY gene in their genome, but often have mutations or other conditions such that they cannot respond to estrogen where testosterone is produced at high levels even without SRY, or other signals are altered...

how would you RESPONSE to THIS PARAGRAPH : I think that PGS is very useful for someone who is know to have reoccurring miscarriages, people who are older and ovaries don't work like they are supposed to work, and even people who keep failing fertility treatments. PGS can be more very helpful for these types of people to get a better idea of what is going on that's causing these issues. In terms of against, it's wrong to go against...

Nameindulia Los Drosophila Genetics Predictions-L113 (20 pts.) Part I. 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...
