20% 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 1 20% 20% 20% 3 4 20% 1 in 4 (25%) 1 in 2 (50%) 1 in 3 (33%) 2 in 3 (67%) 3 in 4 (75%) 2 3 4 5 1 2 5 While conducting reciprocal crosses with fly eye color, Morgan observed that ________. 20% 1. 20% 20% 3 4 20% white-eyed males did not find redeyed females sexually attractive flies homozygous for white eyes did not survive to sexual maturity the F1 ratios were dependent on the gender of the parent with white eyes the white-eyed trait was lost to the population by the end of the F4 generation the parental source of the allele, as with peas, did not influence the F1 ratios 2. 3. 4. 5. 1 20% 2 3 4 5 1 2 5 Huntington's disease has been shown to be caused by an expansion mutation, a condition occurring when ________. 20% 1. 20% 20% 3 4 20% a portion of one chromosome is inserted into another a gene becomes elongated following the repetitive addition of small DNA segments called repeats a section of DNA is moved from one homologous chromosome to the other, producing abnormally long and short chromosomes homologous chromosomes fail to separate, and then join end to end none of the choices describes expansion 2. 3. 4. 5. 1 20% 2 3 4 5 1 2 5 How does the presence of the Y chromosome direct the embryo to become male? 20% 1. 20% 20% 3 4 20% all the genes for the male phenotype are found on the Y chromosome the amount of estrogen produced by XY cells is too small to activate the genes directing female development, causing the embryo to become male the Y chromosome carries a gene for testes formation; the testes then produce testosterone, which activates genes on numerous chromosomes the combination of X and Y gene products combine to form a receptor, which is sensitive to the hormones produced by the mother biologists are uncertain, but the question addresses an area of active research 2. 3. 4. 5. 1 20% 2 3 4 5 1 2 5 If a man who is homozygous for an autosomaldominant condition has children with a woman who does not carry genes for that condition, ________. 20% 1. 20% 20% 3 4 20% all of their offspring will inherit the condition, regardless of their gender three-quarters of their offspring will inherit the condition none of their offspring will inherit the condition, but half will be carriers half of their offspring will inherit the condition half of their sons will inherit the condition and half of their daughters will be carriers 2. 3. 4. 5. 1 20% 2 3 4 5 1 2 5 Comparisons of human and great ape chromosomes suggest that ________. 20% 1. 20% 20% 3 4 20% the two groups are, at best, distantly related and have been evolving separately for a long time two ape chromosomes fused, reducing the human chromosome number to one pair less than the apes chromosomal change is too disruptive to be a component in evolutionary change selection always opposes chromosomal alteration, causing total number and structure to be highly conserved any similarities are coincidental, as virtually no homologous regions exist between any pair of chromosomes 2. 3. 4. 5. 1 20% 2 3 4 5 1 2 5 Analysis of the pedigree for the descendants of King George III and Louis II suggests that ________. 20% 1. 20% 20% 3 4 20% Queen Victoria suffered from hemophilia hemophilia is caused by a dominant allele carried on the X chromosome Hemophilia was introduced to the European monarchy from sources from France Queen Victoria was a carrier for hemophilia males suffering from hemophilia always died early in life without leaving children 2. 3. 4. 5. 1 20% 2 3 4 5 1 2 5 Since dominant alleles are always expressed and detected, how can the persistence of autosomaldominant disorders be explained? 20% 1. 20% 20% 3 4 20% many individuals with dominant disorders have overcome the challenges they present and have decided to have children some dominant alleles are not expressed until after the age when most people have reproduced unless the symptoms of the disorder prevent reproduction, the gene may be passed on some conditions are continually reintroduced to a population through spontaneous mutation all of the choices 2. 3. 4. 5. 1 20% 2 3 4 5 1 2 5 Down syndrome ________. 20% 1. 2. 3. 20% 20% 3 4 20% is observed only in females is also known as trisomy 21 affects only the central nervous system results from a deletion is a Y-linked disorder, passed directly from father to son 4. 5. 1 20% 2 3 4 5 1 2 5
