QuestionAnswer
what is multiple allele? pattern of inheritance in which a trait has more than 2 forms
This trait can be classified as both multiple allele andin its codominant inheritance pattern ABO blood group
Pattern of inheritance in which a trait is controlled by more than one gene? polygenic inheritance
pattern of inheritance that is autosomal but affects males different then females? sex influenced traits
Disorder in which the blood does not clot properly? hemophilia
a sample of embryotic cells are removed directly from the membrane surrounding the fetus Chorionic Vilus Biopsy
when a trisomy is found in the #21 chromosome down syndrome
disorder that causes a progressive wasting away of the skeletal muscles duchane muscular dystrophy
can be used to determine if the correct number of chromosomes are present karyotype
Klinefelter Syndroma and Turner syndrome are both the result of this tupe of chromosomal mutation Nondisjunction
Pattern of inheritance in which one allele can mask the expression of another allele simple dominance
sickle cell anemia has a close association with this disease found most commonly in tropical areas malaria
Cystic fibrosis is inherited in this manner simple recessive
Characteristic that is carried on an autosome but if a male is heterozygous he will lose his hair male pattern baldness
45XO is the abbreviation is most associate with this disorder turner syndrome
genotype that results in normal color vision in male xCy
pattern of inheritance that is carried on the X chromosome sex linked inheritance
what are multiple alleles? 2 a gene has 3 or more alleles
What happens when blood is mixed? it may clump
what is an antigen? molecules that can be recognized by the immune system.
What antigens can RBCs carry? A + B
How are blood types determined? by the presence or absence of the A + B antigens in blood
A blood RBCs only carry A antigen
B Blood RBCs only carry B antigen
AB Blood RBCs carry antigen A+ B
O Blood RBCs carry no antigen
What kind of blood can a recieve? A + O
What kind of blood can B recieve? B +O
What kind of blood can AB recieve? A+ B + O + AB
What kind of blood can O recieve? O
How is ABO blood type determined? byt a single gene with three alleles IA IB i
What is the third antigen in RBCs called? the RH antigen
What are people with RH antigen? RH+
What are people without the RH antigen? RH-
What is RH blood group controlled by? 8 common alleles and many rarer alleles
whats huntingtons disease? genetic disease produced by single dominant allele
When do you get symptoms for HD? 30-40
What does HD affect? muscle control, damage to the nervous system,
Where is HD located? chromosome 4
Who discovered sickle cell anemia? james harris
What causes Sickle Cell Anemia? a change in 1 of the polypeptides found in hemoglbin
whats a hemoglobin? protein that carries oxygen in RBCs
What happens when a person of deprived of oxygen? the hemoglobin molecules join together and form fibers which causes RBCs to undergo dramatic changes
What is the allele for a normal hemoglobin and one for the sickle cell? HA normal HS sickle cell
HAHS are only carriers of sickle cell (blank)
Who are suffers of Sickle Cell HSHS
What are polygenic traits? human traits controlled by a # of genes
Example of polygenic traits skin color, heighth, body weight
what does skin color depend on? the amount melanin produced
very dark skined people alleles code for production of melain at all their gene positions
What is albinism? recessive genetic disorder on chromosome 11
What is cystic fibrosis? recessive allele of chromosome 7, build up of liquid on lungs
How many people does cf affect? 1 out of every 2500
What is tay-sachs disease? caused by recessive allele, rapid breakdown of nervous system
Where is tay-sachs disease most common? jewish families of eastern european ancestry
What is PKU? caused by a recessive allele, unable to convert phenylalanie to tyrosine
What is nondisjunction? the failure of chromosomes to seperate properly during one of the stages of meiosis
What is the disease abbreviated 45X or 45XO turner syndrome
What does turner syndome cause? sterility, sex organs do not develop at puberty
What syndome is 47xxy or 48xxxy Klinefelter Syndrome
What is colorblindess? sex linked genetic disorder, person cannot distinguish between certain colors recessive disorder
male genotype for colorblindess xcy
What is hemophilia? recessive alleles dont produce the protein antihemophic factor
What is duchene muscular dystophy? progessive wasting away of skeletal muscle
How is muclular dystophy caused? a defective version of gene that codes for dystophin
What is a sex linked trait? a trait that caused by a gene whos expression differs in males and females
