In the pedigree below, three mtDNA variants are present in generation I

In the pedigree below, three mt DNA variants are present in generation I, each variant represented by a different color. The dashed lines indicate a mating to an individual in the same generation on the opposite side of the pedigree.

For the individuals in generations II through V, indicate which mtDNA variant they inherited by dragging one of the pink, blue, or orange labels to each target in the pedigree. Then complete the statements below the pedigree by dragging one white label (with the number 1, 2, or 3) to each statement. Labels may be used once, more than once, or not at all.

Whole genome analyses reveal millions of variants; however, at the present time only a very small number of genetic variations exist for which there are firm associations with disease or a high risk for disease and where morbidity and mortality are increased. However, science is continuously updating the list of clinically relevant variants (Evans & Rothschild, 2012). The requirements for monitoring of whole genome analyses over time are not yet established. Since existence of a known deleterious variant can change...

You have isolated three sequence variants of a fruit fly gene that allows normal body coloration to develop. Below are sequences of the protein-coding region of DNA; these have been reduced in length for clarity. You will need to translate these coding strands to answer this question. One sequence was isolated from the study has a nonsense mutation, which leads to dark body coloration. (loss-of-function ) A second sequence is from a mutant with a missense mutation that leads to...
