Color blindness is a recessive sex-linked human trait. If a color-blind father and a mother with normal color vision have a color-blind son, what must be the mother's genotype?​

Answers

Answer 1
Remember that most of the time, in biology class at least, the sex linked disorders are usually going to come on the “x” chromosome. Colorblindness does come on the “x” chromosome.

To solve, begin with a key, such as:
colorblind: c (since it’s recessive)
not colorblind: C

Remember that males have XY, and females have XX, also remember that sex linked traits are written as exponents, and sometimes as subscripts

The father is colorblind, so his genotype is X^cY

Now you must work backwards in a punnet square. Put the fathers genotype on one side of the square. You don’t know the mothers yet, so for now, just put her two x chromosomes. Remember that mom can only give an x to the baby, because that’s all she can possibly give. Since the child is a boy, Dad will give his “y” chromosome to the child.

If the child is colorblind, as the question states, then moms “x” chromosome that she gave the child must have had the recessive allele in order to give him colorblindness. So that means that mom carries the recessive allele. However, mom has normal vision, so she must have a dominant allele as well, otherwise she would be colorblind.

Moms genotype is X^C X^c

Explanation:

In a unique species of plants, flowers may be yellow, blue, red, or mauve. All colors may be true-breeding. If plants with blue flowers are crossed to red-flowered plants, all F1 plants have yellow flowers. When these produced an F2 generation, the following ratio was observed: 9/16 yellow, 3/16 blue, 3/16 red, and 1/16 mauve. Determine the F1 results of a cross between true-breeding red and true-breeding mauve flowered plants.

Answers

Answer:

F1) 100% bbRr, red flowered plants.

Explanation:

Available data:

flowers may be yellow, blue, red, or mauvecolors may be true-breedingthe cross of blue-flowered plants with red-flowered plants, produce plants that have yellow flowersF2 generation: 9/16 yellow, 3/16 blue, 3/16 red, and 1/16 mauve.

Knowing that the phenotypic ratio is 9:3:3:1, we can assume that there are two genes involved in the flower color expression. We can name these genes B and R with a dominant and a recessive allele each (B, b and R, r respectively).

According to the first cross, we might establish the following genotypes:

1st Cross: blue-flowered plant     x     red-flowered plant

Parentals)         BBrr                     x                bbRR

Gametes)     Br, Br, Br, Br                         bR, bR, bR, bR

F1) 100% BbRr, yellow plants

Parentals)   BbRr     x     BbRr

Gametes) BR, Br, bR, br

                BR, Br, bR, br

Punnett square)     BR       Br        bR          br

                  BR     BBRR    BBRr   BbRR     BbRr

                  Br      BBRr     BBrr     BbRr      Bbrr

                  bR     BbRR    BbRr    bbRR      bbRr                    

                  br      BbRr     Bbrr      bbRr      bbrr

F2)  9/16 yellow ---> 1/16 BBRR + 2/16 BBRr + 4/16 BbRr + 2/16 BbRR  

       3/16 blue ------> 1/16 BBrr + 2/16 Bbrr

       3/16 red---------> 1/16 bbRR + 2/16 bbRr

       1/16 mauve ----> 1/16 bbrr    

So,

Yellow-flowered plants: BBRR, BBRr, BbRR, BbRrRed-flowered plants: bbRR, bbRrBlue-flowered plants: BBrr, BbrrMauve-flowered plants: bbrr

According to these genotypes, the second cross would be like following,

2nd Cross: true-breeding red-flowered plants with true-breeding mauve flowered plants.                

Parentals)          bbRR       x        bbrr

Phenotype)       Red                   Mauve

Gametes)   bR, bR, bR, bR      br, br, br, br

Punnett square)    bR       bR        bR        bR                    

                    br    bbRr     bbRr    bbRr     bbRr

                    br    bbRr     bbRr    bbRr     bbRr

                    br    bbRr     bbRr    bbRr     bbRr

                    br    bbRr     bbRr    bbRr     bbRr

F1) 100% bbRr, red flowered plants.

An mRNA that is readily transported into cytoplasm should have all of the following
EXCEPT
a. exons
b. a poly-A tail
c. a 5’-cap
d. introns

Answers

Explanation:

In eukaryotic cells, pre-mRNA has to undergo 3 stages of RNA processing before being transported into the cytosol. Specifically during RNA Splicing, small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs), small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) and other proteins form a spliceosome which excises introns and splice together exons. Introns are considered junk material and does not stay with the mRNA.

The answer is Introns. (D)
