The village of Oblong has 400 normally-shaped residents.
Transferrin is an iron carrier found in blood, and
electrophoretic variation of this protein is determined by
an autosomal codominant system. The citizens of Oblong were
typed for their transferrin complements. The distribution
of transferrin phenotypes was: 100 CC, 100 CD, and 200 DD.
What is the frequency of the C allele?
In pea plants, tall plants are dominant to short plants. If two heterozygous tall plants are crossed, what percent of the offspring will probably be short?
what are splice junction mutations?
What does it mean to say that an allele of one gene is epistatic to that of another?
The weight of the fruit of one variety of squashes is determined by three pairs of genes: AABBCC produces 6 lb squashes and aabbcc produces 3 lb squashes. Each dominant allele adds 1/2 lb tothe base weight (3 lb). If a pure breeding line that produced 6 lb squashes was crossed with a pure breeding line that produced 3 lb squashes, what would be the phenotypic ratio of the F1 and the F2?
