BIO 240 Crime Scene Forensics Worksheet NEW

how forensic scientists take advantage of genomic variations in noncoding regions of DNA
the techniques of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and gel electrophoresis
Introduction: In recent years, law enforcement has been revolutionized by molecular biology. When human tissues are left behind at crime scenes, these tissues can be collected and processed to yield samples of DNA, which can then be treated to isolate specific DNA fragments that are highly variable in the human population.
Which band pattern among Lanes 3 to 6 seems to be the closest match to the band pattern in Lane 2, where the crime-scene DNA fragment was loaded? Which suspect appears to be the culprit?
What is the molecular weight (in base pairs) of the fragment in Lane 2 (DNA from the crime scene), Lane 3 (Suspect 1), Lane 4 (Suspect 2), Lane 5 (Suspect 3), and Lane 6 (Suspect 4)?

Examine the graphs in the Lab Book, and describe any trends you observe among kelp, purple sea urchin, and sea otter populations.
What happened to all three populations when catastrophe struck the sea otters? Which populations were wiped out, and in what order?
Why do you think the removal of the otters caused the other two populations to crash as well?
Examine the graphs in the Lab Book. What happened to the populations’ growth patterns when 100 individuals of each species were reintroduced to the habitat?
What would have happened if you had only reintroduced the kelp and the urchin? Explain.
What if you had only reintroduced five individuals of each species? Would that have worked to restore the populations?

What percentage of Couple 1’s male offspring will be color blind? What percentage of their female offspring will be color blind?
Couple 2 comes into your office. The husband is color blind; the wife is homozygous for the normal vision allele.
Couple 3 comes into your office. The husband is color blind; the wife is heterozygous for the color-blindness allele.
Review the results you obtained for the female offspring of the three couples.
Based on your results for the female offspring, predict whether color blindness is a dominant or recessive trait. Explain your reasoning.
Complete the Punnett squares below to determine the possible genotypes of each couple’s male and female offspring. (X^{\it N} represents the normal color vision allele. X^{\it n} represents the color-blindness allele. Y represents the Y chromosome, which does not carry the color-vision gene.)
Review the results you obtained from the lab for the female offspring of all three couples. Then, look at the female offspring (the offspring with two X chromosomes) in your three Punnett squares.

BIO 240 Week 2 DQ 1

There is a fierce competition among individuals within any species, humans included, to gain access to reproductive privileges. The “fittest” – a term that signifies the largest, prettiest, and most sexually attractive members, succeed in predominantly mating and having offspring, while the less attractive ones often do not. What is the role of such sexual selection from an evolutionary standpoint?

Instead of engaging in fights over potential mates, what would be the problem of simply mating with family members, say, siblings and other relatives? Isn’t this a more efficient way to spread genes, without the added peril of having to find potential mates, which could be a dangerous, strenuous, and uncertain activity? Why not take that and “run?”
