Genotypes and Phenotypes

Definition Definition Observable physical traits or characteristics of an organism, which are determined by its genetic makeup (genotype) as well as environmental factors. These traits can include anything from eye color or height to behavior or disease susceptibility. Understanding an organism's phenotype is important in fields such as genetics, medicine, and ecology.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Introduction :-

Genotypes are the genetic makeup of an individual, while phenotypes are the observable traits that result from the interaction between an individual's genotype and the environment

The young woman shown at right has albinismvery pale skin, white hair, and pale blue eyes. This phenotype is due to the absence of melanin, which imparts color to the skin, hair, and eyes. It typically is caused by a recessive allele. In the following situations, what are the probable genotypes of the father, the mother, and their children? a. Both parents have normal phenotypes; some of their children are albino and others are not. b. Both parents and all their children are albino. c. The mother is not albino, the father is albino, and one of their four children is albino.

. Consider the genotypes of two lines of chickens: thepure-line mottled Honduran is i/i ; D/D ; M/M ; W/W, andthe pure-line leghorn is I/I ; d/d ; m/m ; w/w, whereI = white feathers, i = colored feathersD = duplex comb, d = simplex combM = bearded, m = beardlessW = white skin, w = yellow skinThese four genes assort independently. Starting withthese two pure lines, what is the fastest and mostconvenient way of generating a pure line that has coloredfeathers, has a simplex comb, is beardless, and has yellowskin? Make sure that you showa. the breeding pedigree.b. the genotype of each animal represented.c. how many eggs to hatch in each cross, and why thisnumber.d. why your scheme is the fastest and the mostconvenient

5.) A man and a woman living in a tropical area where malaria is prevalent and health care is not accessible have seven children during their lifetime. The genotypes of their children are: ss, Ss, SS, ss, Ss, Ss, and SS. What must the genotypes of both parents be? Your answer should include a Punnett square to illustrate your work, and list all the genotypes and phenotypes.
Picture yourself sitting at the dinner table with your family. You start comparing everyone's toes (we've all been there...). A longer second toe is dominant over having a longer first toe, which is a recessive trait. It is observed that both of your parents have longer second toes. Create one or more Punnett Squares to demonstrate the possible phenotypic and genotypic ratios of you and your siblings (the first filial generation). Using one or more Punnett Squares compare the possible phenotypic and genotypic ratios if the long second toe trait followed Mendelian inheritance. (Include ALL the steps of a Genetics problem)

Match the pattern of inheritance to the appropriate term. Group of answer choices 1. Recessive epistasis 2. Frequency-dependent selection 3. Incomplete Dominance 4. Pleiotropy 5. Cytoplasmic inheritance 6. Partial penetrance 7. environmentally dependent phenotype 8. sex influenced trait A. Heterozygotes with different alleles of the DTL1 gene survive better than homozygotes B. The disease is usually passed from a mother to all children C. Pure-breeding pumpkin plants grown on sandy soil have bigger seeds than plants of the same pure-breeding lineage grown on peaty soil. D. A cross between a true-breeding plant with serrated leaf edges and a true- breeding plant with smooth leaf edges produces an F1 generation with 88% plants with serrated leaves. E. A cross between two heterozygotes, DdFf, produces offspring in three phenotypic groups; Long wings in offspring with genotype D_F_, short wings in offspring with D_ff, and no wings in offspring with the genotypes…
***18. Complete this flowchart to show how different alleles can result in different characteristics. In the DNA, different alleles of a gene have a different sequence of > different sequence of transcription > different sequence of in a protein translation > different structure and function of the protein (e.g. normal enzyme vs. defective enzyme) > different characteristics (e.g. normal color vs. albino) in
Part B 1. For the remaining characteristics, you will be looking at homozygous and heterozygous traits. Each trait will be determined to be homozygous recessive, homozygous dominant, or hetero- zygous. Letters representing the alleles will be given to you; the uppercase letter is always dominant and the lowercase letter is always recessive. If both dice rolled are even numbers, it indicates homozygous dominant alleles; if both are odd, it indicates homozygous recessive alleles; if one is odd and the other even, it indicates heterozygous alleles. 2. Eyebrows: Use the alleles "A" and "a" for this trait. Two separate brows are the dominant trait, whereas the unibrow (or one continuous brow) is recessive. 3. Eye shape: Use the alleles "R" and "r" for this trait. Round eyes are the dominant trait; almond shaped eyes are recessive. 4. Hitchhiker's thumb: Use the alleles "H" and "h" for this trait. Straight thumbs are dominant; Hitchhiker's thumbs (the curving upward of the thumb) are…
