1A. Map out the correct chromosome map for four genes given the following information

X-Z = 18%X-G = 10%Z-Y=27%Z-G=28%X-Y=9%

1B. Hemophilia is a type of blood clotting disorder that is an example of a sex-linked (X-linked) recessively inherited trait. Polydactyly is an example of a dominantly inherited disorder, where individuals with the dominant allele have extra fingers or toes. Josh has the normal number of fingers and toes and has hemophilia. Josh is married to Olive. Olive does not have hemophilia but has 12 fingers and 14 toes. Olive’s father had hemophilia but has a normal number of fingers and toes.

What is the probability of Josh and Olive having a child with hemophilia and polydactyly?

Deletions can be used to map genes along a chromosome. In order to do this a series of crosses in which one parent is homozygous for a mutant allele is crossed with the other parent that is homozygous for a partial deletion of the region. The progeny are scored to determine whether they have the mutant phenotype ("m") or the wild-type phenotype ("+"). If a mutation falls within the deletion it will have the "m" phenotype, if it falls outside...

In Drosophila, the map positions of genes are given in map units numbering from one end of a chromosome to the other. The X chromosome of Drosophila is 66 m.u.. long. The X-linked gene for body color-with two alleles, y +for gray body and y for yellow body-resides at one end of the chromosome at map position 0.0. A nearby locus for eye color, with alleles w +for red eye and w for white eye, is located at map position...

5) You are given the task of creating a genetic map of three genes of Drosophila melanogaster. The genes are all located on the same chromosome. The genes are for the body color, eye color, and antenna formation. The alleles for body color are yellow and gray (wild-type), the alleles for eye color are sepia and red (wild-type) and the alleles for the antenna are short and normal (wild-type). The mutant alleles for body and eye color are recessive, while...
