Total questions: 10
Worksheet time: 9mins
Q.
Which genes are most likely linked?
genes 1 and 2
genes 3 and 4
genes 2 and 3
genes 1 and 4
Q.
The reason some linked genes may get separated during gamete formation is - - -
genes aren't on the same chromosome
a crossing over event shuffles the genes
genes don't compliment each other well
an environmental impact forces the genes to shuffle
Q.
In a flower, the gene for purple flower (P) and round seed (R) are dominant over the genes for white flower and wrinkled seed. Pure breeding strains of the dominant and recessive varieties were crossed. The F1 generation then undergo test cross. What will be the ratio of the F2 generation if the genes for seed color and shape are not linked?
9:3:3:1
1:1:1:1
1:1 and 1:1
Q.
If results of recombination do NOT follow Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment, genes are likely to be - -
Linked
Shuffled during meiosis
Inherited
On seperate chromosome
Q.
In maize, the gene for colored seed (C) and smooth (S) are dominant over the genes for colorless and wrinkled seed. Pure breeding strains of the dominant and recessive varieties were crossed. The F1 generation then undergo test cross. What will be the ratio of the F2 generation if the genes for seed color and shape are linked?
9:3:3:1
1:1 and 1:1
1:1:1:1
