Q

skin color

A

determined by 10 genes located on diff chromosome

norm: produce keratin-dominant (darker skin)
abnorm: no keratin produced (recessive-light)

Q

recessive disorder

A

result of mutated gene that creates an inability

  • cystic fibrous: can’t regulate water CFTr gene; fluid secreted are thick n sticky/blockage
  • PKU: can’t process phenylalane (protein in food) can’t create enzyme that breaks it down
  • sickle cell anemia: have abnormal hemoglobin (S) in RBC not enough O2 carried, blocks vessles

Q

Dominant disorder

A

gene gives ability to do something

  • Huntington’s Disease
    norm: recessive (enzyme repairs neuron)
    abnorm: dominant: breaks down neuron

Q

morgan’s dihybrid test cross (2 traits)

A

BbWw x bbww

parental: looks like parent: highest number
recombinant: least #

both gene is on the same tetrad/chromosome-independent assortment didn’t work
crossing over works

Q

crossing over

A

cuts more likely to occur when the 2 genes are further apart on chromosome.
if furthur apart then more recombant and higher Rf%
