Questão 3
Questão
How can a female heterozygote phenotypically display a mosaic phenotype?
Responda
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.

Questão 7
Questão
What does epigenetic mean?
Responda
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
Questão 8
Questão
X-inactivation is...
Responda
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.
Questão 9
Questão
If extra X chromosomes are inactivated, why does XXY (Klinefelters) produce a clinical syndrome?
Responda
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.
Questão 10
Questão
Few genes are shared by both X and Y because...?
Responda
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.

w-
w+
w
Questão 16
Questão
Hemizygosity is phenotypically equivalent to...?
Responda
Sex linked
Heterozygosity
Homozygosity
Questão 17
Questão
X & Y act as a homologous pair during what?
Responda
Mitosis and daughter cell formation
Meiosis and gamete formation
Meiosis II and gamete formation
Questão 18
Questão
What is a unique aspect(s) of X-linked inheritance?
Responda
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.
Questão 19
Questão
What is true about X-linked recessive conditions?
Responda
It effects females more often than males.
It effects males more often than females.
It equally effects males and females both.
