Part 1: Monohybrid Cross—Predicting Freckles in an F1 Generation Apply your understanding of how alleles assort and combine during reproduction to evaluate a scenario involving a monohybrid cross. The allele for having freckles (F) is dominant over the allele for not having freckles (f). Some characteristics in people are inherited as simple dominant

parental generation so you know you are only crossing the F-1 flies. 2. What generation will their offspring be? F2 generation. 3. Based on the data obtained‚ is the cross in Case 1 monohybrid or dihybrid? Explain. The cross in case 1 has to be monohybrid since there was only one trait passed. Instead of a dihybrid cross which would have involved two observed traits. 4. Is the cross in Case 1 sex–linked or autosomal? Explain. Autosomal‚ since the patterns are the same for both the males and the

INTRODUCTION TO DROSOPHILA GENETICS DROSOPHILA CULTURE We will study basic principles of Mendelian inheritance with the use of the fruit fly‚ Drosophila melanogaster [the name means “black-bodied fruit-lover”]. Drosophila was one of the first organisms to be studied genetically: its small size‚ short life cycle (10 ~14 days at 25oC)‚ high reproductive rate (an adult female can lay 400-500 eggs in 10 days)‚ and ease of culture and genetic manipulation have made it perhaps the best understood animal

up with specific ratios that a monohybrid and dihybrid cross should show. His findings were that for a monohybrid cross‚ such as my crosses three and six‚ the phenotypes would have a ratio of 3:1 (Russell 2003). My results show that cross six fails to reject Mendel’s hypothesis with a ratio of 3 purple to 1 non-purple plant observed. However‚ cross three did reject Mendel’s hypothesis because epistasis was involved (Strickberger 1985). The results of my last monohybrid cross‚ cross three‚ showed a

you are crossing only F1 flies. 2. What generation will their offspring be? The new offspring are the F2 generation. 3. Based on the data obtained‚ is the cross in Case 1 monohybrid or dihybrid? Explain. The cross is monohybrid because only one trait –eye color– is involved. Further‚ the data show a 3 : 1 ratio. A dihybrid cross would have resulted in a 9 : 3 : 3 : 1 ratio. 4. Is the cross in Case 1 sex–linked or autosomal? Explain. Since the pattern seems to be the same for males and females

segregation. First is that the first plant is the product of a monohybrid cross. A monohybrid cross is “a cross between two organisms that are heterozygous for the character being followed” (Urry‚ G-21). The monohybrid is represented through a phenotypic ratio of 3:1 and a dihybrid cross is represented through a phenotypic ratio of 9:3:3:1 (Mark Lavery). The second hypothesis was that the second set of corn was based on a dihybrid cross. A dihybrid cross is “a cross between two organisms that are organisms

Explain the structure and inheritance of genes (15 marks) A cell’s nucleus contains chromosomes‚ which are long‚ coiled packaged and organized chromatin (molecules of DNA). Chromatin is a complex of molecules found in cells‚ consisting of DNA‚ protein and RNA. Proteins are polypeptides (a large sequence of amino acids). The chief protein component of chromatin are histones‚ which package and order the DNA into structural units called nucleosomes in order to fit in the cell‚ as well as reinforce the
