Question
Answer
aneuploid   show
🗑
polyploid   show
🗑
show (also, map unit) relative distance that corresponds to a 0.01 recombination frequency = 1 cM  
🗑
show average number of crossovers between two alleles; observed as the number of nonparental types in a progeny's population  
🗑
show theory proposing that chromosomes are the genes' vehicles and that their behavior during meiosis is the physical basis of the inheritance patterns that Mendel observed  
🗑
show process by which one chromosome segment dissociates and reattaches to a different, nonhomologous chromosome  
🗑
chromosome inversion   show
🗑
trisomy   show
🗑
euploid   show
🗑
X inactivation   show
🗑
homologous recombination   show
🗑
show a karyotype's photographic image  
🗑
show an individual's chromosome number and appearance; includes the size, banding patterns, and centromere position  
🗑
monosomy   show
🗑
nondisjunction   show
🗑
show progeny resulting from homologous recombination that exhibits a different allele combination compared with its parents  
🗑
parental types   show
🗑
show The gene involved is located on the X chromosome.  
🗑
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a serious condition caused by a recessive allele of a gene on the human X chromosome The pts have muscles that weaken over time bc they have absent or decreased dystrophin How likely is it for a woman to have this condition?   show
🗑
show recessive, sex-linked  
🗑
show 1/2  
🗑
show Mendelian genes are at specific loci on the chromosome and, in turn, segregate during meiosis.  
🗑
show The closer two genes are on a chromosome, the lower the probability that a crossover will occur between them.  
🗑
Which of the following phrases correctly defines what one map unit is?   show
🗑
Why are males more often affected by sex-linked traits than females?   show
🗑
Which of the following statements correctly describes the reason that closely linked genes are typically inherited together?   show
🗑
If cell X enters meiosis, and nondisjunction of one chromosome occurs in one of its daughter cells during meiosis II, how will this affect the gametes at the completion of meiosis?   show
🗑
A couple has a child with Down syndrome. The mother is 39 years old at the time of delivery. Which of the following is the most probable cause of the child's condition?   show
🗑
show tortoiseshell females; black males  
🗑
Inheritance patterns can't always be explained by Mendel's models of inheritance. If a pair of homologous chromosomes fails to separate during meiosis I, select the choice that shows the chromosome # of the 4 resulting gametes w/ respect to the (n)?   show
🗑
A color-blind boy has a mother with normal vision and a color-blind father. From which parent did he get the color-blind gene?   show
🗑
Boy, dwf w/ aplasia & normal vis bangs a color blind gal, norm ht Man's dad was 6' & both the gals parents: avg ht Dwarfism w/ aplasia is autosomal dom & red green color blindness is X linked rec How many daughters expected to be color-blind w/ aplasia?   show
🗑
show a gene present on the Y chromosome that triggers male development  
🗑
show sex chromosome carried by the sperm cell  
🗑
Traits controlled by sex-linked recessive genes are expressed more often in males because:   show
🗑
A woman is found to have 47 chromosomes, including three X chromosomes. Which of the following statements describes her expected phenotype?   show
🗑
