Comb shape in chickens results from the epistatic interaction of
two genes. The first gene (T/t) affects the basic shape of the comb
such that: TT and Tt results in a walnut (normal) comb while tt
results in pea comb. The recessive allele (r) of a second gene
(R/r) modifies the first gene, but the dominant allele (R) does
not. Thus RR and Rr has no effect on comb shape, while rr paired TT
or Tt produces a rose comb...
All of the following are true of mutations EXCEPT:
Chromosomal mutations involve moving many genes to a new
location
Point mutations affect only one gene.
Mutations that occur in the regulatory regions of a gene can
change how much, where or when a gene is expressed.
The only mutations that are important are the ones that occur
in the coding regions of genes.
True or False
When genes are on the same chromosome, the alleles on one of the
two homologous chromosomes are considered to be in trans.
Two genes can be syntenic and unlinked.
If recombination rate is high, then a particular combination of
alleles is likely to be transferred to the next generation
intact.
Genes A and B are located 10cM from each other on a
chromosome. Gene C is located 25cM from gene A and 15cM from gene
B. Assuming that I = 0, what is the probability that the trihybrid
ABC/abc will produce an ABC gamete?
I get that ABC is a result of a double crossover. A similar
question was answered and said that
Probability of SCO - DCO = 0.25 - 0.015 = 0.235
PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW YOU GET .25...
What is the difference between “vertical inheritance”
and “horizontal inheritance”? Does horizontal
inheritance of genes provide evidence against Darwin’s theory of
Evolution by Natural Selection? Why or why not?
Answer the following Java questions with True or False:
a) Java supports Multiple Inheritance in a way that a class can
inherit from multiple classes as long as they do not have the
overridden methods. (T/F)
b) A class in Java cannot implement more than one
interface. (T/F)
c) A class is in instance of an object (T/F)
d) In Java a class can implement multiple interfaces only if
that class inherits from another base class (T/F)
e) Constructors are...
