Document Summary
Hmb265: lecture 11 - midterm review (oct. 13) Mendel"s 2 laws + how he derived them (from what crosses) Epistasis (recessive, dominant / what are the ratios?) Epistasis: mutation in one gene masks effect of another gene. Dominant b allele is epistatic to both a and a. Recessive: bb epistatic to a and a. What is the probability that the first female offspring will be aa. Assume individuals that are unaffected are aa unless cross clearly shows otherwise. Assume individuals that are affected are aa unless cross clearly shows otherwise. Determine the mode of inheritance requiring the fewest number of individuals to independently have the disease allele. Jay has blood type b and his mother has blood type a. The frequency of a dominant autosomal disease allele is 0. 1 in a population. What proportion of the population is expected to have the disease, assuming the population is at hardy-weinberg equilibrium.
