How many alleles are there for a Mendelian trait? What is the difference between homozygous and heterozygous? How many autosomal genes are there? What is a Punnett square with the father with genotype of XcY and the mother of genotype XcX?
How many alleles are there for a Mendelian trait? You hopefully know that there are at least 3 genes that work together to determine someone's blood phenotype. Assume that George, whose genotype is \mathbf{iiDdhh}, mated with Mary, whose genotype is \mathbf{I^A iDdHh}. What is the exp...
There are many different ways for you to get sick -- here are some of them: Mechanical damage - If you break a bone or tear a ligament you will be "sick" (your body will not be able to perform at its full potential). The cause of the problem is something that is easy to ...
You can still see artificial selection in action in many parts of the world, where dogs exist on the margins of society and feed on scraps. These "pariah" dogs are of relatively uniform size, but vary in color. They are probably not descended from purebred dogs, as there is no local hi...

In establishing paternity by DNA typing, how many short tandem repeat (STR) alleles in a child come from the father? A. 1/4 B. 1/2 C. 3/4 D. none Differentiate between dominant and recessive genes. What is the basic solution for a simple pedigree when matching alleles?
How are alleles and traits related? Why is autosomal DNA different for siblings? How is autosomal DNA passed down? What is the difference between autosomal and mtDNA tests? Why do populations have variation in certain traits? How is our autosomal DNA expressed?
If you cross a homozygous red eyed fruit fly to a pink-eyed homozygous adult and 25 offspring are the result, how many will be red-eyed? How many alleles does a person have? How many chromosomes do mosquitoes have? In fruit fly genetics, the dominant eye color is red, while the recess...
How many different types of gametes can be generated by an individual with genotype AaBB? a) 1 b) 2 c) 4 d) 8 Law of Independent Assortment According to the Mendel Law of Independent Assortment, the alleles of one gene locus will segregate independ...
Explain why no two siblings inherit exactly the same combination of alleles from their parents. How can scientists tell how closely related two organisms are? A. The more genes they share, the more similar. B. By looking at common features, like eye color, hair color, and number of arms....
