Question: What will the offspring of two mice who have brown fur and long tails look like? Prediction: If two brown mice mate, their offspring will all be brown with long tails. Procedure: (Note: this is just a summary, not what their full detailed procedure looked like) 1. Allow 2 mice with brown fur and long tails to mate. 2. After the babies are born, record the hair color and tail length of the babies. 3. Repeat steps 1-4 for three more trials. Data: Percentage of Total Flies Trial 1 Trial 2 Trial 3 Average Brown hair and long tails 9 8 10 9 Brown hair and shorter tails 3 2 4 3 White hair and long tails 3 2 4 3 White hair and shorter tails 1 1 1 1 17. Write a conclusion for this controlled experiment. In your conclusion, be sure to: o o o o Answer the experimental question. Include supporting data table above. Explain how these data support your conclusion. Provide a scientific explanation for the trend in the data. Question: What will the offspring of two mice who have brown fur and long tails look like? Conclusion: Do This 1. Separate/Unzip the DNA and find the mRNA molecule that matches the DNA side: TAC AGG CCT 2. Take the mRNA and using the provided tRNA molecules, transcribe the mRNA into proteins (chains of amino acids) 3. Fill out the following table. Transcription Original Message or instructions in: Nucleotide sequence in gene, in DNA, in chromosome Molecule which is synthesized: Location in the cell where this takes place: Translation 4. What would the amino acid sequence be for your segment of DNA? TAC AGG CCT ____________________________________________ 5. How would a person with the segment TAC AAG CGT differ from the person with the code in question 3? Would they have the same traits? ___________________________________________________________ Do This: Dihybrid Cross A mama cow and father bull are heterozygous for brown fur and long curved horns (BbHh). Complete the following to determine the inherited characteristics of your new baby calf. 1. Roll the die to determine the genotype of the baby calf. If you roll a 5 or 6, re-roll. Roll one determines the genotype of the sperm (top) while roll two determines the genotype of the egg (side) 1. BH 2. Bh 1. BH 2.
