Refer to the pedigree chart. If this chart shows the passing on of the Albinism trait, which individuals would be heterozygous (Aa)?
Gen I (person 1)
Gen II (Person 4)
Gen II (person 6)
All listed here are carriers
Refer to the pedigree chart. If this chart shows the passing on of the Albinism trait, which offsprings born from parents in Gen III (persons 1-6) would have the least probability of being born Albino?
Offsprings of Gen III (person 1 or 2)
Offsprings of Gen III (person 3 or 4)
Offsprings of Gen III (person 5 or 6)
All would have the same probability
Refer to the pedigree chart. If this chart shows the passing on of the Albinism trait, create a Punnett Square for the parents of Gen II (person 3 and 4). What is the probability that if Gen II (person 3 and 4) had another child that child would not exhibit Albinism?

Identify the correct statement(s) regarding DNA
Eukaryote DNA is in the nucleus and is in the form of a double helix.
Prokaryote DNA is in the cytoplasm and in the shape of a ring.
Eukaryote DNA is longer than Prokaaryote DNA.
All are correct
DNA is a Nucleic Acid and are create by nucleotides. Identify the correct statement(s)
Nucleotides have 3 parts
Bases are paired A to T and G to C
Both are correct
None are correct
During DNA replication which enzymes are responsible for unwinding and adding the correct nitrogen base pair to the exposed parent strands
Unwinding (DNA Helicase)
Adding Base pair (DNA Polymerase)
Both are correct
None are correct
Refer to the picture regarding DNA Replication. Why are there 2 different colors in the image?
The DNA is changing therefore the color changes
One color represents the parent strand and the other the new strand (Semi-conservative)
Both are correct
None are correct
Identify the incorrect statement(s) regarding the resulting DNA molecules after DNA Replication
