What is the outcome of nondisjunction in meiosis I of an organism with ploidy 2n=2? A - one quarter of the resultant gametes will be devoid of all chromosomes B - half of the resulting gametes will contain non-sister chromatids C - half of the resulting gametes will contain sister chromatids D - half of the resulting gametes will be trisomic E - half of the resulting gametes will be haploid

Brachydactyly is a condition caused by an allele dominant to wild-type in humans, in which the fingers and toes are shortened. In a population of 10,000 people, 1,600 are BB, 4,800 are Bb, and 3,600 are bb. A)What percentage of people in this population have short fingers and toes? B)What is the frequency of the b allele? C)Is this population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?

Starting with One Cell describe step by step the process of Meiosis I in males and females (they have different end results). How many viable cells are there for the male and for the female at the end of Meiosis I?

1) If nondisjunction occurs during meiosis II, what type of gametes would be expected? 2) Sex determination in Ewoks is similar to humans - female Ewoks have two X chromosomes and males have one X and one Y chromosome. A gene on the X chromosome determines eye color, where the dominant allele XB gives produces black eyes and the recessive allele Xb produces hazel eyes. Two black eyed parents have a hazel eyed son. If they have two additional children,...

5. Identify any one (1) genetic disorder not caused by nondisjunction. Explain why. 6). Given that Phenylketonuria (PKU) is inherited as a recessive trait. What is the chance for two heterozygous parents to have a phenylalanine-sensitive child? Explain. 7). Given a mating between a non-hemophiliac male & a heterozygous female what is the probability for a hemophiliac female child? Explain. 8). Given a mating between an albino male & a carrier female, what is the probability for a child who...
