6. ) In mice, an allele for apricot eyes (a) is recessive to an allele for brown eyes (a*). At an independently assorting locus, an allele for tan (t) coat color is recessive to an allele for black (t*) coat color. A mouse that is homozygous for brown eyes and black coat color is crossed with a mouse having apricot eyes and a tan coat. The resulting F1 are intercrossed to produce the F2. In a litter of eight F2 mice, what is the probability that exactly two will have apricot eyes and tan coats? Use three decimal places for the answer.

Introduction
The relationship between two versions of a gene is referred to as dominant. Each parent gives each child two copies of each gene, known as alleles. If a gene's alleles differ, only one will be expressed; this is the dominant gene. The influence of the other, recessive, allele is masked.

- Complementation tests of distinct recessive mutants, 1 through 8, produce the data in the matrix below. A plus (+) indicates complementation, meaning the phenotype of the combined alleles is wild type, and a minus (-) indicates a failure to complement meaning that a mutant phenotype results. Assume that the missing mutant combinations would yield data consistent with the entries that are shown. How many complementation groups are formed by these eight mutants?

- Question 7 Which of the following is inconsistent (not consistent) with inheritance of a maternal effect trait? A) Progeny from the same parents have the same maternal effect phenotype as each other but not their mother. B) Progeny can show a recessive phenotype even though the progeny have dominant genotypes. C) Both parents contribute recessive alleles to an offspring yet it has a dominant phenotype for the maternal effect trait. D) Progeny from the same parents have different traits related to the maternal effect gene in question. CS Scanned with CamScannerA recessive maternal effect mutant in zebrafish, called ichabod, results in embryos lacking heads that are non-viable. You have been instructed to identify females that are homozygous for the ichabod mutant allele. At your disposal are a tank of wild-type fish (males and females), a tank of male and female parental fish that are all heterozygous for the ichabod mutant allele (ichabodl+), and a tank of F1 fish derived from a cross between a heterozygous male and heterozygous female (ichabodl+). Which of the following would be a way to identify females that are homozygous mutant, i.e. ichabodlichabod? Select all answers that would work. Cross F1 females to F1 males and observe their offspring. Crosses that produce headless offspring came from a homozygous female. a. Cross F1 males to females from the parental tank and observe their offspring. 25% of these crosses should produce headless offspring. b. Cross F1 females to F1 males to make the F2 generation. Cross F2 females to F2 males and…Dominant negative Incomplete dominance Epistasis Recessive lethal allele III ||| E A condition where one gene has the ability to override the expression of another gene no matter what the relationship is between the other gene's alleles. A condition when a new mutation is able to suppress or revert an earlier mutation allowing wildtype function to reappear. A condition where a recessive allele influences the shape of a protein dimer product in the heterozygous condition so that it neither resembles the homozygous dominant nor the homozygous recessive conditions leading to a LOF in the heterozygous state and the recessive state. A condition where two recessive alleles will be fatal to an offspring although it will not affect a
- A couple was referred for genetic counseling because they wanted to know the chances of having a child with dwarfism. Both the man and the woman had achondroplasia (MIM 100800), the most common form of short-limbed dwarfism. The couple knew that this condition is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait, but they were unsure what kind of physical manifestations a child would have if it inherited both mutant alleles. They were each heterozygous for the FGFR3 (MIM 134934) allele that causes achondroplasia. Normally, the protein encoded by this gene interacts with growth factors outside the cell and receives signals that control growth and development. In achrodroplasia, a mutation alters the activity of the receptor, resulting in a characteristic form of dwarfism. Because both the normal and mutant forms of the FGFR3 protein act before birth, no treatment for achrondroplasia is available. The parents each carry one normal allele and one mutant allele of FGRF3, and they wanted information on their chances of having a homozygous child. The counsellor briefly reviewed the phenotypic features of individuals with achondroplasia. These include facial features (large head with prominent forehead; small, flat nasal bridge; and prominent jaw), very short stature, and shortening of the arms and legs. Physical examination and skeletal X-ray films are used to diagnose this condition. Final adult height is approximately 4 feet. Because achondroplasia is an autosomal dominant condition, a heterozygote has a 1-in-2, or 50%, chance of passing this trait to his or her offspring. However, about 75% of those with achondroplasia have parents of average size who do not carry the mutant allele. In these cases, achondroplasia is due to a new mutation. In the couple being counseled, each individual is heterozygous, and they are at risk for having a homozygous child with two copies of the mutated gene. Infants with homozygous achondroplasia are either stillborn or die shortly after birth. The counselor recommended prenatal diagnosis via ultrasounds at various stages of development. In addition, a DNA test is available to detect the homozygous condition prenatally.
