Module 8 Review Exploring Creation with Biology

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.

Question
Answer
What is the genotype for a homozygous tall pea plant?   TT  
🗑
What process causes gametes to have one allele for a given trait, when other human cells have two of each allele?   Meiosis  
🗑
A person carries a genetic disorder but does not have the disorder. How is that possible?   The genetic disorder is recessive.  
🗑
Do sex-linked genetic disorders affect men and women the same?   No  
🗑
Why are males affected more in sex-linked genetic disorders?   Men have only one allele in sex-linked traits.  
🗑
Two individuals have an identical genotype for a certain trait, but they are not identical when it comes to that trait. Why?   Environmental or spiritual factors can affect some traits.  
🗑
A woman with type O blood marries a man with type AB blood. What blood types with percentages are possible for their children?   A 50% and B 50%  
🗑
T represents the ability to taste PTC, which is dominant. If a man is is heterozygous in that trait, what is his genotype?   Tt  
🗑
If a woman cannot taste PTC, what is her genotype?   tt  
🗑
Determine the percentage chance of each genotype for the children of a man who is heterozygous for a dominant trait and a woman who has the recessive trait.   50% will be heterozygous dominant and 50% will be homozygous recessive.  
🗑
Draw a Punnet square for a sex-linked recessive trait where the man does not have the trait and the woman carries but does not have the trait.   You should end up with one female homozygous for the dominant, one female heterozygous for the trait, one male dominant without the trait, and another male with the recessive trait.  
🗑
What are the four ways genetic disorders arise?   Autosomal or sex-linked inheritance, change in chromosome structure, allele mutation, and change in chromosome number  
🗑
Draw a Punnet square for two traits of a plant that is heterozygous in both traits when it is crossed with itself(make up traits or use ones you know). What are the possible phenotypes and their percent chances?   Be sure to practice this. This will be worth 5 points: 1 for getting the allele combinations correct, 2 for the Punnet square, and 2 for the correct phenotypes and percentages.  
🗑
Go over pedigree diagrams.   There is a 1 point question about this.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
