QUESTION 1) The vocal properties of the shrieking eels of Florin are controlled by three genes. The dominant alleles, L (loudness), P (pitch) and T (timing) cause eels to emit loud, high-pitched shrieks in the morning. The recessive alleles (1, p, and t) cause eels to sing softly, at a low pitch, in the evening. In a three-point linkage analysis experiment, I carried out a test cross using a triply heterozygous eel and a triple recessive partner. When the eggs hatched, I found that the resulting 8000 offspring had the following phenotypes i) Loud, high pitch, morning 160 ii) Loud, high pitch, evening 690 iii) Loud, low pitch, evening 3000 iv) Loud, low pitch, morning 10 v) Quiet, high pitch, morning 3360 vi) Quiet, high pitch, evening 30 vii) Quiet, low pitch, evening 240 viii) Quiet, low pitch, morning 510 Calculate and draw the genetic map for the genes L, P and T including distances.

Kernel color in wheat Red kernel color in wheat results from the interaction between two dominant alleles. With only one dominant allele, the phenotype is brown while in the absence of any dominant allele, the phenotype is white. Suppose that plants of a variety that is true breeding for red kernels are crossed with plants true breeding for white kernels. What specific type of interaction can be observed? A. duplicate dominant genes B. duplicate genes with cumulative effects C. complementary genes D. dominant epistasis (case 2)
QUESTION 5 How would a corn kernel heterozygous for the color allele (Cc) sometimes get spots / streaks of color or no color? a. Under the influence of the Ac element, Ds is a transposable element that can jump in and out of the dominant Callele. b. The Ac & Ds elements are both transposable elements that can jump in and out of the recessive c allele. C. The P element only acts in the female part. d. Under the influence of the Ds elerment, Ac is a transposable element that can jump in and out of the dominant Callele. e. None of the above. QUESTION 6 Why does the P element cause hybrid dysgenesis only when a male fly with the P element mates with a female fly that does not have the P element? O a. Sperm cells contain little or no cytoplasm so there is no repressor protein contributed by the male. b. The P elements are linked on the same chromosome. C. The repressor protein in the female's egg, that keeps the P element from transposing, is not present. d. Both a andc e. All of the above…
Part 1 With use of Punnett diagrams discuss how the results of experiments carried out by Austrian monk Gregor Mendel on pea plants brought about the Law of Dominance, the Law of Segregation, and the Law of Independent assortment. Part 2 In humans, the gene that produces the disease Sickle Cell Anaemia is recessive to the gene for healthy haemoglobin production. a) How can two phenotypically healthy parents have a child who suffers from Sickle cell Anaemia? In your answer use suitable letters to show the genotypes of the parents and construct a Punnett diagram to show all the possibilities of the children's genotypes. b) Based on the outcome of your Punnett diagram, state and explain the probability of a child being a sufferer of Sickle Cell Anaemia and the probability of a child not suffering from the disease. c) If an individual who suffers from Sickle cell disease has a child with someone who is healthy (and not carrying the sickle cell gene), what is the probability that the child…
1 (b). Nowadays, newborn babies are required to be tested for phynylketonuria (PKU), an autosomal recessive genetic disorder. If untreated, individual homozygous for PKU suffer mental retardation. In a recent year, 4 PKU babies were detected out of 126,o00 tested. Assuming Hardy-Weinberg conditions, What is the percentage of heterozygous carriers? (Give your answer in whole number, no decimal places, and include the % symbol without a space).
