certain physical features of Turner syndrome, which may
include
short stature ,
"webbing" of the skin of the neck (extra folds of skin
extending from the tops of the shoulders to the sides of
the neck),
a low hairline at the back of the head ,
low-set ears ,
abnormal eye features, including drooping of the eyelids
abnormal bone development, especially the bones of the
hands and elbows ,
a lack of breast development at the expected age (usually
by age 13) ,
an absence of menstruation (amenorrhea) ,
a larger than usual number of moles on the skin ,
People who have Turner syndrome may vary widely in their
characteristics or symptoms of the disorder. Some may have
many features or symptoms, whereas others may experience
only a few.
A special blood test that looks at a person's chromosomes -
called a karyotype - is used to diagnose Turner syndrome.
Several physical characteristics may be noted at birth,
which can alert your child's doctor to the possibility of
TS and cause him or her to order a karyotype. A karyotype
test that indicates Turner syndrome reveals 45 chromosomes
(only one X chromosome), instead of the normal 44 autosomes
and 2 X chromosomes (XX) typically found in females. In
some girls with TS, two X chromosomes are present, but one
is misshapen or missing a piece.

In mice colored coat is dominant to albinism. Sniffles, a male mouse with a colored coat is mated to Esmeralda, an alluring albino. The resulting litter of six young all had colored fur. The next time around Esmeralda was mated with Whiskers, who was the same color as Sniffles; some of this litter were white. a)What are the probable genotypes of Sniffles, Esmeralda, and Whiskers? b) If a male of the 1st litterwas mated to a colored female of the 2nd litter, what phenotypic ratio might be expected among the offspring? c)What would be the expected results if a male of the 1st litter was mated to an albino from the 2nd?

In cucumbers normal leaves (N) are dominant to curled leaves (n) and elongated fruit (L) is dominant to spherical fruit and these genes are linked on the same chromosome. If a pure-breeding normal-leaved, elongated fruit cucumber is crossed with a curled-leaved, spherical fruit cucumber, what will be the phenotype of the F1? the phenotypic ratio of the F2?

Cystic fibrosis (CF) occurs with a frequency of about 1/2500 Caucasian newborns and is inherited as an autosomal recessive. A woman had an older sister die from complications of this disease. CF is not present among relatives of her husband. Both the woman and her husband have normal phenotypes. What is the chance this couple will have a CF child
In cats yellow is due to gene B and black to its allele b. These genes are located on the X chromosome (sex-linked). The heterozygous results in calico (tortoise shell). What kinds of offspring (sex & color) are expected from the cross: black male & calico female? Most calico males are sterile, why?
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?
