Male pattern baldness is influenced by
X
Male pattern baldness is linked to markers on the __-chromosome
heart disease, high blood pressure and prostate cancer
Bald males are more likely to suffer from
did not
Scientists found that some pairs of genes (did/did not) separate according to Mendel’s principles. What is correct did or did not?
each individual diploid organism possesses two alleles at a locus that separate in meiosis with one allele going into each gamete.
Principle of segregation is?
it provides additional information about the process of segregation; it tells us that, in the process of separation, the two alleles at a locus act independently of alleles at other loci.
Principle of independent assortment is?
Genes that are located close together on the same chromosome. The linked genes belong to the same linkage group.
Linked genes travel together in meiosis, eventually arriving at the same destination (the same gamete) and are not expected to assort independently.
Closely linked genes are rarely reshuffled.
It was proposed in the early 1900s by Sturtevant that the degree of linkage may depend on the position of the genes on the chromosome. Sturtevant produced the first chromosome map of the X-chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster
Linked genes will give variations on the 9:3:3:1 ratio expected from an independent dihybrid cross

What are linked genes?
do not
Genes located on the same chromosome ___ ___ adhere strictly to Mendel’s principles
the independent separation of alleles, or the sorting of alleles into new combinations.

Recombination is?
recombinant gametes
Gametes produce in F1 that are different from parent gametes are
Walter Sutton in 1903. Theory states that genes are found on chromosomes, or chromosomes are the carriers of genetic material and showed that chromosomes separate during meiosis
What is the chromosome theory of heredity and who came up with it and when?
together
Genes close together on the same chromosome usually segregate as a unit and are therefore inherited ______
- cross over
- apart
- apart

- Genes located on the same chromosome will sometimes _____ ______
- The further the genes are _____ the more often crossing over will take place between them
- Ultimately, they will be inherited as non-linked genes as long as they are far enough _____ on the same chromosome
crossing over, rarely
If genes are completely linked no ______ _______ occurs, but in realilty genes are ____ completely linked.
independently.
If genes are unlinked then they assort _____

The following diagram shows the difference between completely linked genes and independently assorting genes
or parental gametes are gametes that contain only original combinations of alleles that are present in the parents.
What are nonrecombinant gametes?
Progeny that display the orginal combination of traits present in the P generation or parental progeny
What are nonrecombinant progeny?
gametes with new combinations of alleles. Crossing over produces recombinant gametes. Linkage is rarely complete

Recombinant gametes are?
progeny with new combinations of traits formed from recombinant gametes.
Recombinant progeny are ?
- non-recombinant
- calculated
- distance
- coupling and repulsion
- When genes are linked and some crossing over takes place, ________ progeny dominates
- Recombination frequency can be ______
- Linkage is a measure for the _____ between two genes on a chromosome
- Linkage also depends on ______ and _____
