D.N.AIn humans, the allele for
dimples (D) is dominant. The allele for not having dimples (d) is recessive. A woman (DD) and a man (Dd) have four children. Which of these if the predicted ratio of the children with dimples to the children without dimples?

In fruit flies, eye color is sex-linked. Red is dominant to white. What are the genotypes of these flies:
White eyed, male_____________ White eyed, female_________ Red eyed, male___________ Red eyed, female_________ Red eyed, female (hetero) ____

What if in the above cross, 100 males and 200 females were produced. How many total red-eyed flies would be produced?
50% of 100 = 5050% of 200 = 100
TOTAL = 150
IN ORDER TO DETERMINE WHETHER A DISEASE OR TRAIT WILL BE PASSED TO FAMILY MEMBERS, A PEDIGREE IS CREATED
PEDIGREE
A PEDIGREE CHART Is a map of a family’s genotypes It can be used to trace a disease or interesting
trait through a family
Uneffected male
Uneffected female
If it is unfilled in, means the male or does not express the trait or is
homozygous recessive
HOW MANY MALES ARE THERE IN THE FAMILY?HOW MANY FEMALES ARE THERE IN THE FAMILY?HOW MANY PEOPLE IN THE WHOSE FAMILY HAVE THE DISEASE?WHAT IS THE SEX OF THE PARENT WHO HAS THE DISEASE?

IN HUMANS, THE ALLELE FOR HAVING FEET WITH NORMAL ARCHES IS DOMINANT (A). THE ALLELE FOR FLAT FEET IS RECESSIVE (A). THE PEDIGREE BELLOW SHOWS THE OCCURRENCE OF NORMAL ARCHES AND FLAT FEET IN FOUR GENERATIONS OF A FAMILY. IN THE PEDIGREE, INDIVIDUALS ARE IDENTIFIED BY THE GENERATION AND INDIVIDUAL NUMBERS.
