Title: 1. Which of the following states a valid conclusion based on the pedigree above? Post by: billyray on Jun 7, 2019 1. Which of the following states a valid conclusion based on the pedigree above?
Select one: a. Individual I-2 does not carry the red-green colour blindness allele. b. All children of individuals I-1 and I-2 could be carriers of the red-green colour blindness allele. c. Individuals II-5 and II-6 are carriers of the red-green colour blindness allele. d. It is not possible to determine whether individuals III-2 and III-3 are carriers of the colour blindness allele. e. Individual II-2 passed on the red-green colour blindness allele to individual II-1. 2. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an inheritable disorder that results in muscle weakness, leading to walking and breathing difficulties and heart disease. Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Which of the following is a valid conclusion about the Duchenne muscular dystrophy pedigree shown above? Select one: a. Without further evidence, the genotypes of individuals II-2 and III-2 cannot be determined. b. Individual II-3 can only pass on the affected allele to individuals III-2 and III-4. c. Only individuals I-2 and II-4 are confirmed carriers of the Duchenne muscular dystrophy allele. d. Only individuals I-1 and II-3 are confirmed carriers of the Duchenne muscular dystrophy allele. 3. A defective gene on chromosome 15 causes Tay-Sachs disease. It is a central nervous system neurodegenerative disease that most often affects infants, though older children and adults can have late-onset forms of the disease. The defective gene prevents the body from making a protein called hexosaminidase A. Without, hexosaminidase A, chemicals called gangliosides build up in the nerve cells of the brain, destroying brain cells. A couple has one daughter with Tay-Sachs disease and three other unaffected children. Neither the mother, nor father, nor any of the biological grandparents of the affected daughter have had the disease. Tay-Sachs disease most likely demonstrates what type of inheritance? Select one: a. autosomal recessive b. X-linked recessive c. X-linked dominant d. autosomal dominant 4. Achondroplasia is a form of dwarfism caused by a mutation in a single gene. Two individuals with achondroplasia marry and have an affected child and later have a second child that is average in height. From this you can conclude Select one: a. achondroplasia is a result of incomplete dominance b. achondroplasia is produced by a dominant allele c. achondroplasia is produced by a recessive allele d. achondroplasia is a result of codominance @bio_man need much help; I have to hand this in soon Title: Re: 1.
