This type of genetic transmission expresses the gene depending on whether it is from the mother or the father. ____________
Select one:
a. GENETIC IMPRINTING
b. SEX-LINKED GENES or X-LINKED INHERITANCE
c. POLYGENIC INHERITANCE or GENE-GENE INTERACTION
d. DOMINANT-RECESSIVE GENES PRINCIPLE
GENETIC IMPRINTING
This type of genetic transmission is carried on the X gene only, so boys are more likely to express the disorder because their Y chromosome is not able to counteract it. ____________
Select one:
a. GENETIC IMPRINTING
b. SEX-LINKED GENES or X-LINKED INHERITANCE
c. POLYGENIC INHERITANCE or GENE-GENE INTERACTION
d. DOMINANT-RECESSIVE GENES PRINCIPLE
SEX-LINKED GENES or X-LINKED INHERITANCE
This type of genetic transmission occurs when multiple pairs of genes work together to form a characteristic. ____________
Select one:
a. GENETIC IMPRINTING
b. SEX-LINKED GENES or X-LINKED INHERITANCE
c. POLYGENIC INHERITANCE or GENE-GENE INTERACTION
d. DOMINANT-RECESSIVE GENES PRINCIPLE
POLYGENIC INHERITANCE or GENE-GENE INTERACTION
This type of genetic transmission occurs because a certain gene always is expressed in favour of another one. ____________
Select one:
a. GENETIC IMPRINTING
b. SEX-LINKED GENES or X-LINKED INHERITANCE
c. POLYGENIC INHERITANCE or GENE-GENE INTERACTION
d. DOMINANT-RECESSIVE GENES PRINCIPLE
DOMINANT-RECESSIVE GENES PRINCIPLE
This test is given during the 10th to 13th week by taking a sample from the placenta. Results are ready in 10 days, but it has a slight chance of miscarriage.
Select one:
a. Amniocentesis
b. Chorionic villus sampling (CVS)
c. Ultrasound
Chorionic villus sampling (CVS)
This is given about seven weeks into the pregnancy. It involves scanning the womb with soundwaves.
Select one:
a. Amniocentesis
b. Chorionic villus sampling (CVS)
c. Ultrasound
Ultrasound
This is given during the 16th to 20th weeks using a needle to extract fluid. It is often used by older mothers and has a slight chance of triggering a miscarriage. It may take up to two weeks for results.
Select one:
a. Amniocentesis
b. Chorionic villus sampling (CVS)
c. Ultrasound
Amniocentesis

Select one:
a. passive

c. active
evocative
Shy people avoiding parties & spending time in the library is an example of _____ influence.
Select one:
a. passive
b. evocative
c. active
c. active / Niche picking
The fact that parents who are genetically predisposed to be readers have lots of books and that their children’s genotype predisposes them to respond to books is an example of _____ influence.
Select one:
a. passive
b. evocative
c. active
passive
Because siblings’ experiences diverge as they grow (i.e., their nonshared environmental experiences increase), one would expect siblings to become ______.
Select one:
a. less similar over time
b. more similar over time
less similar over time
