Resumen del Recurso

Pregunta 1

Pregunta
Describe a Barr Body
Respuesta
  • They are intact X chromosomes which are highly condensed and transciptionally repressed.
  • They are intact X chromosomes which are lightly condensed and transcriptionally repressed.
  • They are intact Y chromosomes which are highly condensed and transcriptionally repressed.

Pregunta 2

Pregunta
What is a condensed inactivated X chromosome?
Respuesta
  • X-linked
  • Y-linked
  • Barr Body

Pregunta 3

Pregunta
How can a female heterozygote phenotypically display a mosaic phenotype?
Respuesta
  • X-chromosome inactivation can phenotypically cause this for X- linked genes to display a mosaic phenotype.
  • X-chromosome inactivation can phenotypically cause this for X- linked genes to display a mosaic phenotype. This can also occur in males with a XXY genotype.
  • Y-chromosome inactivation can phenotypically cause this for Y- linked genes to display a mosaic phenotype.

Pregunta 4

Pregunta
Tortoiseshell cats are mostly...
Respuesta
  • Female
  • Male
  • Homozygous
  • Heterozygous
  • Both Female and Heterozygous

Pregunta 5

Pregunta
What's an example of random X-inactivation?
Respuesta
  • Tortoiseshell pattern
  • Down syndrome
  • Siamese cat

Pregunta 6

Pregunta
What is an example of a reversible epigenetic process?
Respuesta
  • Y-chromosome activation
  • X-chromosome inactivation
  • Down syndrome

Pregunta 7

Pregunta
What does epigenetic mean?
Respuesta
  • Not a change in DNA sequence but a change in chromatin state.
  • A change in DNA sequence and a change in chromatin state.
  • Multiple gene sequences are cut out of the X-inactivation

Pregunta 8

Pregunta
X-inactivation is...
Respuesta
  • Erased during Mitosis, and the chromosome is passed onto the progeny in its original, active state.
  • Erased during Meiosis, and the chromosome is passed onto the progeny in an altered state.
  • Erased during Meiosis, and the chromosome is passed onto the progeny in its original, active state.

Pregunta 9

Pregunta
If extra X chromosomes are inactivated, why does XXY (Klinefelters) produce a clinical syndrome?
Respuesta
  • Up to 25% of some x-linked genes in humans escape inactivation. This includes the genes within the pseudoautosomal regions (PARs) of the Y chromosomes.
  • Up to 75% of some x-linked genes in humans escape inactivation. This includes the genes within the pseudoautosomal regions (PARs) of the X and Y chromosomes.
  • Up to 25% of some x-linked genes in humans escape inactivation. This includes the genes within the pseudoautosomal regions (PARs) of the X and Y chromosomes.

Pregunta 10

Pregunta
Few genes are shared by both X and Y because...?
Respuesta
  • Genes that are unique to the X chromosome are X-linked genes.
  • Genes that are unique to the Y chromosome are Y-linked genes.
  • Genes found on the sex chromosomes are sex-linked genes.
  • All are correct.

Pregunta 11

Pregunta
What type of traits exhibit sex-dependent inheritance patterns?
Respuesta
  • X-linked traits
  • Y-linked traits
  • Sex linked traits

Pregunta 12

Pregunta
The white gene in drosophila is...
Respuesta
  • X linked and is located on the x chromosome
  • Y linked and located on the Y chromosome
  • Sex independent

Pregunta 13

Pregunta
What would you call a diploid individual that carries only one copy of a given gene?
Respuesta
  • Hemizygous, Hemizygote
  • Heterozygous, Heterozygote
  • Homozygous, Homozygote

Pregunta 14

Pregunta
In XX/XY species, the XY sex is________ for X-linked genes.
Respuesta
  • Heterozygous
  • Homozygous
  • Hemizygous

Pregunta 15

Pregunta
How would you denote a Wild type white allele?
Respuesta
  • w-
  • w+
  • w

Pregunta 16

Pregunta
Hemizygosity is phenotypically equivalent to...?
Respuesta
  • Sex linked
  • Heterozygosity
  • Homozygosity

Pregunta 17

Pregunta
X & Y act as a homologous pair during what?
Respuesta
  • Mitosis and daughter cell formation
  • Meiosis and gamete formation
  • Meiosis II and gamete formation

Pregunta 18

Pregunta
What is a unique aspect(s) of X-linked inheritance?
Respuesta
  • XY male parents normally cannot pass their X chromosome to male progeny
  • A male needs to receive only 1 recessive allele to display the recessive phenotype, but females need to receive 2 recessive alleles.
  • A heterozygous female for an X-linked trait can produce sons who display the recessive phenotype, regardless of her mate's X-chromosome genotype.
  • X-linked traits often deviate from Mendelian ratios
  • All are correct.

Pregunta 19

Pregunta
What is true about X-linked recessive conditions?
Respuesta
  • It effects females more often than males.
  • It effects males more often than females.
  • It equally effects males and females both.
