Half of the F1 generation plants will have the same allele seeds for yellow seeds. c). All of the F1 generation plants will have the allele for green seeds. d). None of the F1 genertation plants will have allele for yellow seeds.
#10. In mice, the waltzing allele (w) that causes the mouse to run in circles due to an inner ear defect is recessive to the non- waltzing allele(W). If a heterozygous mouse mated wit ha walting mouse. If a heterozygous mouse mated with a waltzing mouse, a). 100% of the offspring would have a copy of the recessive allele. b). 75% of the offspring would have the dominant trait. c).100% of the offspring would have the same copy of the dominant allele. d). 75% of the offspring would have the recessive trait.
#11. Use the following info for question 12 as well. In mice, albinism (g) IS recessive to grey coat colour (G). A grey mouse mated with an albino mouse. Over the course of several months, 38 pups were born. Out of 38 pups, 17 had a grey coat and 21 were albino. Which of the following rows correcrly identifies the parental and F1 generation genotypes? a). Parental corss GgxGG F1 Genotypes GGxGg. b). Parental cross GGxgg F1 generation Gg. c).Ggxgg F1 generation GG, Gg and gg. d).Gg x gg F1 generation F1Gg and gg.
#12. Theoretically what is the excepted result from the parental cross of a grey mouse and albino mouse, and why does teh excpeted result not match the result stated in the information given above? a). Theoretically, there should be a 1:1 ratio of grey mice to albino mice, or grey coat mice and 19 albino mice. With more litters, the actual results would match the expected results more closely. b). Theoretically, 100% of the mice should have grey coats so all 38 offspring should have grey coats. There was an experimental error that can account for the deviation.c). Theoretically, there should be a 3:1 ratio of grey mice to albino mice, or 29 grey coat mice and 9 albino mice. With more litters, the actual results would match the expected results more closely.d). Theoretically, there should be a 3:1 ratio of grey mice to albino mice, or 28.5 grey coat mice and 9.5 albino mice. There was an experimental error that can account for the deviation.
#13. Which of the following statements describes the law of segregation? a). A Punnett square can be used to predict the outcome of a parental cross. b). the dominant allele is represented with an uppercase letter and the recessive allele is represented with alowercase letter.c). Dominant alleles are always expressed in a homozygous or heterozygous individual.d). A Bb individual will produce B and b alleles, while a bb individual will only produce a b allele.

#1. Which of the following statements correctly describes the Law of Independent Assortment? Select one:a). Non-allelic genes do not affect each other if they are located on separate chromosomes.b). A large Punnett square can be used to predict the outcome of a parental cross involving two traits.c). The dominant allele is represented with an uppercase letter and the recessive allele is represented with a lowercase letter.d). Sometimes all alleles lack dominance, which leads to a blending of traits.

Use the following information to answer the next question.The Labrador Retriever’s coat colours are black, yellow, and chocolate.Yellow is produced by the presence of a recessive epistatic gene, which has the effect of masking the black and chocolate colour genes. Black (B) is dominant to chocolate (b). Therefore, the possible genotypes and corresponding phenotypes are:
Phenotype Possible Genotypes Black G__B__ Brown G__bb Yellow gg__Predict the percentage of offspring that would be black in colour for each of the following crosses. Record your answer as a whole number.

Recombination frequency question. The recombinant frequency of two genes A and B located on the same chromosome is 38%. Parents heterozygous for genes A and B were test crossed, and 250 offspring resulted. How many of the offspring would have the parental genotypes ofr A and B?
I was told that you have to use this formula : recombination frequency= # of recombinant types / total number of offspring x 100%. I did this. I went 0.38= # of recombinant types / 250 offsprings x 100%. i got rid off the 100% to get 0.38 i took 0.38 x 250 i ogt 95. is my answer correct?

Some processes involved in DNA replication
1. the replication origin is identified
2.DNA primase builds RNA primer
3. Okazaki fragments are spliced by DNA ligase
4. Helicase bind and uncoil the DNA double helix
5. RNA primer is the starting point for DNA polymerase
6. DNA replication ends at the telomere where DNA codes for termination
7. DNA polymerase adds complementary nucleotides in the 5' to 3' direction in short segments called Okazaki fragments
The sequence in which the events numbered above occur during DNA replication of the lagging strand is
