Genetics Test ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ 1. Two similar chromosomes that you inherit from your parents (one from your mother, one from your father) are called __________ ________________. 2. Meiosis produces cells with how many chromosomes? 3.

Which of the following phrases about this person is true? a. does not have the disorder but can pass it on b. will develop the disorder only late in life c. cannot pass the disorder to sons, just daughters d. the allele is not passed on due to Y chromosome inactivation ____ 24. Some members of a family have a recessive sex-linked disorder. Which of the following statements about the family would be true? a. All males would have the disorder. b.
