What is a genome?
Genetic material in living things is found in what molecule?
What is a section of DNA that codes for a protein called?
The DNA in a muscle cell of a human and a brain cell of a human is the same.
If a red flower is crossed with a white flower and the offspring are pink, what type of inheritance is this an example of?
A red flower is crossed with a white flower and the offspring are red and white. What type of inheritance pattern is this?
the form of a gene that is always expressed when present
What is the genotype of a pea plant that is heterogenous for height?
What is the phenotype of a plant that is heterogenous for height? Tall is dominant and short is recessive
In pea plants, purple flowers are dominant to white flowers. A white flowered plant is crossed with a plant that is homozygous Purple. What percentage of the offspring will have purple flowers?
What is the genotype of a male who is colorblind which is a sex-linked recessive trait?
What is a genome?
What must be true in order for a female to inherit a recessive x-linked trait such as colorblindness?
If one parent has the genotype for blood type IAi and the other parent has the blood type IBi, what are the possible phenotypes of the offspring? (hint: you have to do a Punnett Square to figure out the answer!)
Red-green colorblindness is a recessive sex linked trait. If a woman who is a carrier for color-blindness marries a man who is not colorblind, what is the chance that they will have a child who is colorblind? (again, do the Punnett square to figure out the answer!)
Which type of cells must a mutation occur in, in order for the mutation to be passed on to that organism’s offspring?
If a person has 3 copies of the Chromosome number 21, what type of mutation is this?
what disorder does a person with 3 copies of chromosome number 21 have?
What type of mutation occurs when one nitrogenous base is replaced with a different nitrogenous base?
