When a heterozygous Aa diploid cell undergoes mitosis, what are the genotypes of the mitotic products?

Group of answer choices

Aa (product 1) and Aa (product 2)

AA (product 1) and aa (product 2)

AA (product 1) and AA (product 2)

aa (product 1) and aa (product 2)

When a heterozygous Aa diploid cell undergoes the 1st meiotic division (meiosis I), how will the A and a alleles distribute to the two meiosis I products if there is no crossing over?

Group of answer choices

Aa (product 1) and Aa (product 2)

AA (product 1) and aa (product 2)

AA (product 1) and AA (product 2)

aa (product 1) and aa (product 2)

According to Mendel’s principle of segregation, an Aa heterozygous diploid organism produces:

Group of answer choices

Only gametes that are AA

Only gametes that are aa

AA and aa gametes in theoretically equal numbers

A and a gametes in theoretically equal numbers

According to Mendel’s principle of independent assortment, a diploid organism with the genotype Aa Bb (the genes are located on different chromosomes) produces:

Group of answer choices

Only Ab and aB gametes

Only ab and AB gametes

AB, Ab, aB, and ab gametes

If allele A confers the A+ phenotype, and allele a is recessive (aa has A- phenotype), what will the A+ : A- ratio be among the offspring of an Aa X Aa cross?

What do both G protein-coupled receptors and tyrosine kinase receptors have in common?

The binding site for the signaling molecule is located on the outside of the cell.

They both interact with G proteins.

Binding of the signaling molecule forms a dimer.

They both result in a phosphorylation cascade.
