a 500kb translocation?
o
Deletion
o
Inversion
o
Translocation
The most common time
individual assortment occurs is when genes are ________?
o
unlinked
o
close together
o
linked
o
on non-sister chromatids of homologues
Question 4 of 10
Combination of alleles
that independently assort is usually higher than the number of chromosomes
because
o
segregation
o
gene linkage
o
jumping genes
o
crossing over
o
translocation
Question 5 of 10
Serious disease syndromes
are associated with trisomy of chromosome 21 (Down syndrome), 18 (Edwards
syndrome) and 13 (Patau syndrome).
What is the result of
trisomy of the other chromosomes?
o
no disease symptoms
o
minor disease symptoms
o
disease symptoms with varying severity
based on genetic background
o
lethal early in development
Question 6 of 10
What is the difference
between a karyotype and a karyogram?
o
Karyotypes and karyograms are terms that
are used interchangeably to describe chromosome mapping
o
Karyotypes describe the number of
chromosomes and what they look like (size bands and centromere placement).
Karyograms is the study of the whole set of chromosomes arranged in pairs by
size, and position of the centromere
o
Karyograms describe the number of
chromosomes and what they look like (size bands and centromere placement).
Karyotypes is the study of the whole set of chromosomes arranged in pairs by
size, and position of the centromere
o
Karyotypes are unstained chromosomes in
interphase or prophase. Karyograms are stained chromosomes from metaphase
Nondisjunction during
meiosis I will result in ________.
o
n
o
n-1
o
n+1
o
n+1 and n-1
o
n, n-1, and n+1
Question 8 of 10
Why do so many
geneticists focus on studying yeast, fruit flies, nematodes, mice or the small
plant Arabidopsis?
o
These pest organisms result in millions of
dollars of damage and hurt the economy.
o
They are ideal for modeling human disease
since they have all the same organs.
o
They have multiple features that allow for
cheap, fast and efficient manipulation of genes and chromosomes.
o
They are some of the few organisms in
which mutations can be generated.
Question 9 of 10

23 pairs of chromosomes with a different pair for the 23rd pair would describe
a(n)
o
autosomal pair
o
male
o
female
o
disorder
