Human Genome

All of the DNA of the human species makes up the human

• genes

• genome

• chromosomes

• DNA

humans have __________bases divided among ______chromosomes

• 3 million, 23 pairs

• 3 million , 23 pairs of

• 3 billion, 23

• 3 billion, 23 pairs of

the goal of the Human Genome Project was to

• sequence all 3 billion base pairs of human DNA

• develop linkage maps of all 22 autosomes of chromosomes

• all of the above

linked genes

• are on homologous pairs

• are on the same chromosome

• are on sister chromatids

most of the human genome is made of

• genes

• regulatory regions

• intergenic regions

a normal human male has

• 22 autosomes, and one x chromosome and one Y chromosome

• 22 pairs of autosomes, and one x chromosome and one Y chromosome

• 23 pairs of autosomes, and one x chromosome, and one Y chromosome

In a polygenic trait, such as adult height, most people

• will have a phenotype close to the average

• will have the dominant phenotype

• will have a heterozygous genotype

a mother has red green color blindness. Her husband is not affected.

• half of their daughters will have red green color blindness

• all of their sons will have red green color blindness
