L25 Sex-linkage and recombination of linked genes

Descripción

• Identify the inheritance patterns of sex-linked genes. • Explain that linked genes show non-independent assortment. • Explain that crossing over leads to recombination of linked genes. • Discuss how recombination frequencies are used to map genes.

Resumen del Recurso

Pregunta 1

Pregunta
Which parents determines the sex of the offspring?
Respuesta
  • Mother
  • Father

Pregunta 2

Pregunta
A male fruit fly is white eyed, which is recessive, and an X-linked gene. What term would we use to describe its genotype?
Respuesta
  • Homozygous recessive
  • Heterozygous recessive
  • Hemizygous recessive

Pregunta 3

Pregunta
A male fruit fly carries an X chromosome with a white eyed allele, and is mated with a female homozygous for red eye alleles. Which statement would be true?
Respuesta
  • All offspring will have white eyes.
  • All male offspring will have white eyes.
  • All daughters will be heterozygotes.

Pregunta 4

Pregunta
A colour blind male mates with a homozygous non colourblind female. Which statements are true?
Respuesta
  • All sons are colourblind.
  • None of the sons will be colourblind.
  • All daughters will be carriers.
  • There is a 50% chance one of the children will be colourblind.
  • If one of the daughters has offspring with a non-colourblind male, there is a 50% chance that their son will be colourblind.

Pregunta 5

Pregunta
You perform a dihybrid cross between a heterozygote and a homozygous recessive individual. Instead of the expected 1:1:1:1 ratio, the parental types are far more common and only a small ratio of the offspring are recombinants. What can you conclude and why?
Respuesta
  • The genes did not assort independently because they are linked on the same chromosome.
  • The genes did not assort independently because there was a failure to separate during anaphase I.
  • The genes being tested for actually do not segregate and are alleles.

Pregunta 6

Pregunta
Theoretically meiosis should cause all [blank_start]gametes[blank_end] to have the [blank_start]parental[blank_end] type if genes being observed are [blank_start]linked[blank_end].
Respuesta
  • gametes
  • parental
  • linked

Pregunta 7

Pregunta
Which statement best describes recombinant frequency?
Respuesta
  • The number of times recombination occurs during meiosis.
  • The proportion of recombinant gametes that are produced.
  • The number of recombinant individuals in a population.

Pregunta 8

Pregunta
The larger the distance between two genes the less likely a chiasmata will be formed between them.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 9

Pregunta
A small recombinant frequency indicates a small distance between genes.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 10

Pregunta
What is the maximum recombination frequency?
Respuesta
  • 100%
  • 50%
  • 49.9%

Pregunta 11

Pregunta
Choose the correct statements about genetic map units.
Respuesta
  • They are arbitrary.
  • They are also known as cM, centimacrometres.
  • They are also known as cM, centimorgans.
  • The number of map units can be calculated by multiplying the recombinant frequency by 100.
  • The number of map units can be calculated by dividing the recombinant frequency by 100.
