Figure 2 depicts two chromosomes that contain the same genes in the same locations, represented by the letters A, B, and C. Which of the following terms should be used to describe these chromosomes?

Down syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by the presence of an extra chromosome number 21 in the body cells of humans. The extra chromosome is most likely the result of

Which of the mutated chromosomes above could have resulted from a deletion in the

original chromosome?

Which of the following correctly pairs mitosis and meiosis with the type of reproduction with which they are associated?

Assume a white cabbage butterfly mates with a yellow cabbage butterfly, and all of the offspring (F1) are heterozygous and white.

Which cross represents the genotypes of the parent generation?

Goats have been genetically modified to produce an anticlotting protein in their milk. The protein is extracted from the milk and given to people who have inherited a disorder that causes their bodies to produce blood clots, which can be fatal.

What is a benefit of the technology used to produce this protein?

Two heterozygous purple-flowering pea plants are crossed. If purple is dominant over white, what are the expected phenotypic results?

The Punnett square in Figure 9 depicts a type of cross known as a monohybrid cross, and it is similar to crosses performed by Gregor Mendel. Which of the following arguments can NOT be defended using the evidence in this Punnett square?

Which of the following represents the genotypes of the parents in this dihybrid cross?

The pedigree in Figure 12 below follows a recessively inherited trait.

What is the genotype of individual IV,1?

The pedigree in Figure 12 below follows a recessively inherited trait.

What is the sex of individual IV,1?

The pedigree in Figure 12 below follows a recessively inherited trait.

If individuals II,1 and II,2 had more children, what is the probability that they would express this recessive trait?

A labradoodle is mix between a Labrador Retriever and a Standard Poodle. Labradoodles have wavy coats (CS) while Labrador retrievers have straight coats (SS) and standard poodles have curly coats (CC). Figure 13 depicts the types of coats. What inheritance pattern best describes the inheritance of coat pattern in these dogs?

A labradoodle is mix between a Labrador Retriever and a Standard Poodle. Labradoodles have wavy coats (CS) while Labrador retrievers have straight coats (SS) and standard poodles have curly coats (CC). Figure 13 depicts the types of coats.

If a labradoodle has offspring with another labradoodle, what is the probability that their offspring will have curly coats?

The image in Figure 14 below is a model of a cell undergoing meiosis. Assume that this cell belongs to a species with a diploid number of 6. Which of the following statements could be cited as evidence that the cell is in Metaphase I?

Which process can produce a large group of organisms with identical genotypes?

In the diagram shown in Figure 3 below, which type of change most likely caused the new combination of traits in gametes B and C?

Farmer Brown grows corn for a living. His corn production has steadily declined over the past decade. One day, Farmer Green suggests to Farmer Brown that he should clone his highest-yielding corn plant in order to produce more ears of corn per plant next year. Farmer Brown is not sure about Farmer Green’s idea as he heard both positive and negative outcomes about cloning.

Why might Farmer Brown be hesitant to clone his corn?

Which of the mutated chromosomes could have resulted from a duplication in the

original chromosome?

Student created a Punnett square to show a cross between a homozygous furred mouse (FF) and a homozygous furless mouse (ff). The students then created a Punnett square for a cross between two heterozygous F1 mice. Which of the following questions could be answered using the information from the Punnett squares in Figure 10?

What will be the phenotypic ratio of offspring in this dihybrid cross?

Holstein cattle are a breed of dairy cow. One allele codes for a white coat; the other allele codes for a black coat. Heterozygotes express both of these colors simultaneously, resulting in animals that have black and white “spots.” If a spotted parent mates with a black parent, what is the percent chance of a spotted baby calf?

Fruit flies have a diploid number of 8. How many chromosomes would you expect to find in a gamete of a fruit fly?

According to the gel electrophoresis in Figure 5 to the right, which two dear species are most closely related?

What is the sex of the person who provided this karyotype?

If the karyotype has a mutation at chromosome 21. What is the most likely cause for this mutation?

Which cross could produce a child with type O blood?

The diagram in Figure 7 represents DNA fingerprints which are the result of gel electrophoresis done on several DNA samples found at a crime scene. Which suspect is linked to the crime scene based on this DNA analysis?

A transgenic organism carries an altered genome containing foreign DNA. According to the illustration, if the gene that was added codes for proteins, how will humans get the proteins from the sheep?

Sexual reproduction requires much more energy use from parents. Which of the following best explains why sexual reproduction is valuable for life despite its large energy investment?

In pigs, the allele for a wavy, rough coat (R) is dominant to the allele for a soft (smooth), fine coat (r). A rough coat male and a smooth coat female mate. They produce several litters, 50% are rough coat and 50% are smooth coat. What must be the genotypes of the parents to create this phenotypic ratio?
