Q

mendels first law

A

alleles of a gene separate independently from each other during gamete formation

24
Q

principle of dominance (in a heterozygote…)

A

one allele may conceal the presence of another

25
what family shows proof of the law of segregation
F2
26
the principle of segregation (in a heterozygote...)
two different alleles segregate from each other during the formation of gametes
27
what generation directly suggests dominance , why?
F1 - the recessive trait "disappears" in F1
28
which generation directly provides evidence for the independent segregation of alleles
F2 - predictable ratios
29
in testcrosses, _______ and _______ frequencies are identical
genotypic and phenotypic
30
dihybrid crosses
differ in two traits (2 genes, 4 alleles)
31
Dihybrid crosses
crosses of two varieties of true breeding plats that differed in two characteristic (ie - green/yellow and wrinkled/smooth)
32
random segregation will lead to ___ possible gamete recombinations
4
33
recombinant phenotypes
offspring that show a new combination of traits different from either parent and the F1
34
mathematical prediction. for the second law
9:3:3:1
35
how many phenotypes in F2 offspring for monohybrid crosses
2
36
how many phenotypes in F2 offspring for dihybrid crosses
4 phenotypes
37
how many phenotypes in F2 offspring for trihybrid crosses
8 phenotypes
38
when does the F2 class phenotypic and genotypic ratios equal each other
the double reccesice
39
are parental and recombinant phenotypes always the same
no yes if it follows mendals laws
40
does dominance vary with the origin of the game
no
41
do test crosses always give equal ratios (1:1, 1:1:1:1)?
yes
42
heterozygote vs heterozygote creates what ratios
3:1 or 9:3:3:1
43
F1 is always
heterozygous
44
an x2 value greater than the critical value _____ the null hypothesis
rejects
45
chi-test is used to
rule out medelian inheritance of the genes in question
46
humans have how many pairs of sex chromosomes
1
47
most common cause of human genetic disease
recessive mutations
48
null alleles
recessive alleles usually lack function
49
the majority of human genes are
haplosufficient (Aa)
50
albinism is due to a lack of
tyrosinase
51
recessive conditions often ________ generations
skip
52
for dominant mutations, whats the pattern
every infected individual is expected to have at least one affected parents (no skipping generations)
53
do dominant mutations have carriers
no
54
haploinsuffieciency
one "good" copy of a gene does not make enough of the gene product to hide the other
55
in a dominate trait, can unaffected parents have an affected kid? what example of distinction is that?
no - rigorous
56
predictions of mendelian laws for distribution is based on what (2)
the independent segregation of alleles in meiosis random fusion of gametes during fertilization
