Document Summary

Locating genes on chromosomes: chromosomal basis for mendel"s laws (fig. The chromosomes that occur as homologous pairs in all organisms of a species are called autosomes. Chromosome pairings that can vary depending on the sex of an organism are called sex chromosomes. In most vertebrates, including humans, the x and y chromosome are the sex chromosomes: sex determination, the sry (sex-determining region on the y chromosome) gene and the. Males are haploid with respect to the genes on the sex chromosomes, a condition called hemizygous: this generates a special type of inheritance called sex-linked. Sex determination can be very different for different species: sex-linked inheritance, the probability for a male of having an x-linked genetic disease caused by a mutant recessive allele is much higher than it is for a female. Because men have only one x chromosome, they express the genes it contains whether they are dominant or recessive.

Related Questions

1. What is the chromosome theory of inheritance?

2. Understand how independent assortment can cause gametes to have four combinations of alleles when an individual is heterozygous for two genes on two different chromosomes.

3. What are linked characters and linked genes? Understand why linked genes will not independently assort.

4. How can crossing over affect linked genes?

5. What are recombinant gametes?

6. Define recombinant frequency. Be able to use the recombinant frequency to determine how close two genes are on a chromosome.

7. What is a linkage map?

8. What is the function of the SRY gene on the Y chromosome? What happens if you don't have this gene?

9. Know how sex is determined in mammals, birds, bees and ants, and reptiles.

10. How many autosomes and sex chromosomes do normal human haploid and diploid cells have?

11. What does it mean for a gene to be X-linked or Y-linked?

12. Be able to answer word problems and fill out a Punnet square involving an X-linked recessive trait.

13. Which sex is more likely to have an X-linked recessive disorder? Understand why.

P.s The most simple answer would be preferable. I would be copping the notes over that you will provide to my noteb book and add my details to it.

Consider each of the following statements.

In meiosis, the chromosomal material doubles during the lastpremeiotic interphase.

The greater the number of chromosome pairs, the greater is theeffect of meiosis in producing genetically distinct gametes.

The diploid number of chromosomes is half the haploidnumber.

A cell that will not divide again remains in the GÂ2 stage ofinterphase.

The correct sequence of events during meiosis is: synapsis ?dyad formation ? chiasma formation

In an organism with n = 3, there is a 1 in 8 probability of agamete with all maternally derived chromosomes contributing to theproduction of a zygote.

An organism with n = 3 can produce 8 different kinds of gametesin relation to combinations of maternal and paternalchromosomes.

Separation of sister chromatids occurs during anaphase I ofmeiosis and is the physical basis for the law of independentassortment.

A single diploid cell that undergoes meiosis in the male testiswill produce 4 genetically different gametes if crossing-over isignored.

The independent alignment of different tetrads at metaphase I ofmeiosis is the physical basis of the law of independentassortment.

If a diploid cell has 20 pairs of chromosomes, there will be 10tetrads during prophase I of meiosis.

If a diploid cell has 20 pairs of chromosomes, there will be 20bivalents during prophase I of meiosis.

If a diploid cell has 20 pairs of chromosomes, there will be 80chromatids present during metaphase of mitosis.

If a diploid cell has 20 pairs of chromosmes, the organism canmake 20² types of gametes if crossing-over isignored.

Segregation of sister chromatids occurs during anaphase I ofmeiosis and is the physical basis of the law of segregation.

For an individual with a diploid number of 30 chromosomes, therewill be 60 chromatids at metaphase I of meiosis.

For an individual with a diploid number of 30 chromosomes, therewill be 15 tetrads at metaphase II of meiosis.
