a. It can be inherited by a daughter from her father. b. It will always be expressed if present in male individuals. c. It will always be expressed if present in female individuals. d. It can be inherited by a son from his mother. 2) Drosophila melanogaster is a species of fruit fly used in genetics labs due to how inexpensive they are, how visible their traits are, and their high reproductive rate. The gene for red and white eye colour is found on the X chromosome. The allele for red eyes (XR) is dominant to the allele for white eyes (Xr). You are asked to cross a pure breeding white-eyed female with a pure breeding red-eyed male. What are the genotypes of the individuals involved in this cross? 1) X^R X^R 2) X^R X^r 3) X^R X^- 4) X^r X^r 5) X^R Y 6) X^r Y Genotype of the parent male Answer Genotype of the parent female Answer Genotype of the male offspring Answer Genotype of the female offspring Answer 3) A gene for eye colour in Drosophila occurs on the X chromosome. The allele for red eyes, XR, is dominant over the allele for white eyes, Xr. A heterozygous red-eyed female fruit fly was crossed with a white-eyed male fruit fly. Complete the following Punnett square for this cross. Answer Answer Answer Answer Answer Y Answer Answer 4) Marfan syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations in the FBN1 gene. It affects connective tissues, commonly resulting in long bones, abnormal curvature of the spine, defects in the eye (glaucoma), and faulty heart valves. X-linked hypophosphatemia is an X-linked dominant disorder that causes a type of rickets. Which of the following rows describes the inheritance pattern of these disorders? a. Marfan Syndrome Males and females are affected with equal frequency. X-linked Hypophosphatemia Affected males can only pass on the trait to their daughters. b. Marfan Syndrome Males are affected more frequently than females. X-linked Hypophosphatemia Female carriers can pass on the trait to their sons. c. Marfan Syndrome Affected males can only pass on the trait to their daughters. X-linked Hypophosphatemia Males and females are affected with equal frequently. d. Marfan Syndrome Female carriers can pass on the trait to their sons. X-linked Hypophosphatemia Males are affected more frequently than females. 5) Red-green colour blindness is a sex-linked trait. Red-green colour blindness (Xrg) is the inability to distinguish between red and green colours. The Xrg allele is recessive to the normal X allele.

Females can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait only from their father, and males can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait from either their mother or father. b. Males can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait only from their mother, and females can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait from either their mother or father. c. Both sexes can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait from either their mother or father. d. Females can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait only from their father, and males can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait only from their mother. 9) In birds, males have two Z sex chromosomes (ZZ) and females have one Z and one W sex chromosome (ZW). Since female birds have only one Z chromosome, they have only one copy of all Z-linked genes and they express the phenotype of the allele that they get. Barred is a sex-linked dominant trait in chickens. The barring allele causes white pigment in bars on a solid color producing an alternating pattern. The original solid color in the chickens below is black. The possible genotypes and their corresponding phenotypes are as follows: Genotype Sex Feather Phenotype ZBZB Male Barred ZBZb Male Barred ZbZb Male Black ZBW Female Barred ZbW Female Black Which of the following rows correctly displays the phenotypes of the F1 generation of a cross between a pure breeding barred rooster and a black hen AND a black rooster and a barred hen, respectively? a.

The dominance hierarchy of three colour alleles is ash-red > blue-black > brown (Z^A > Z^B > Z^b). These colours are carried on the Z sex chromosome. Unlike humans, female pigeons have two different sex chromosomes (Z and W) and males have two of the same kind of sex chromosome (ZZ). A heterozygous blue-black male pigeon mated with a brown female pigeon. What are the expected genotypes of the offspring? a. Z^B Z^b and Z^b W b. Z^B Z^B,, Z^B Z^b, Z^b Z^b, Z^B W, and Z^b W c. Z^B Z^b, Z^b Z^b, Z^B W, and Z^b W d. Z^A Z^b, Z^B Z^b, Z^B W, and Z^A W 11)SEE IMAGE ATTACHED PLEASE ANSWER Title: Re: 11 questions i Need support ASAP Post by: Anonymous on Nov 30, 2022 1) Which of the following statements correctly describes a Y-linked trait?

Females can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait only from their father, and males can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait from either their mother or father. b. Males can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait only from their mother, and females can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait from either their mother or father. c. Both sexes can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait from either their mother or father. d. Females can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait only from their father, and males can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait only from their mother. Females can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait only from their father, and males can inherit an allele for a Z-linked trait from either their mother or father. Explanation: Male genotype of sex chromosomes in birds (ZZ) Female genotype of sex chromosomes in birds (ZW) Male can inherit Z-linked trait from either mother or father as male's genotype is homozygous for sex chromosomes (ZZ). Female can inherit Z-linked trait from either father only as female's genotype is heterozygous for sex chromosomes (ZW). 9) In birds, males have two Z sex chromosomes (ZZ) and females have one Z and one W sex chromosome (ZW). Since female birds have only one Z chromosome, they have only one copy of all Z-linked genes and they express the phenotype of the allele that they get. Barred is a sex-linked dominant trait in chickens. The barring allele causes white pigment in bars on a solid color producing an alternating pattern.
