5. Create a flow chart using the following terms: Nucleic acids, DNA, RNA, double helix, deoxyribose, ribose, single stranded, has thymine as a base, has uracil as a base, nucleotides, found in the nucleus, found in the ribosome, makes a protein

Cellular Reproduction1. Create a flow chart using the following terms: mitosis,

meiosis, body cell, starts diploid (used twice), ends diploid, ends haploid, gametes, has crossing over, chromosome number in daughter cells is the same, chromosome number in the daughter cells is halved, two cells are produced, four cells are produced?

2. How do mitosis and meiosis in plant and animal cells differ?Genetics

1. 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?

2.

The female in the second generation must be--A. normal because her daughter is normalB. normal because the majority of her children are normalC. colorblind because her mother was a carrierD. a carrier because one of her sons is colorblind

3. The most common form of human albinism is determined by homozygosity for the recessive allele a. A normallypigmented man and woman, each of whom has an albino parent, are married. If this couple has a children, whatis the probability that they will have an albino child? (complete punnett square on separate sheet of paper)A. 25%B. 50%C. 75%D. 100%

4.

Using the karyotype above, determine the genetic disorder and sex of this individual.

5. Which baby could not be the child of parents who both have AB blood?

The chart below shows the genotype of

four babies with regard to blood type.

Baby GenotypeW AAX BBY iiZ AB

6. The gene for tallness (T) is dominant over the gene for shortness (t) in pea plants. A homozygous dominant peaplant is crossed with a heterozygous pea plant, and 200 seeds are produced. Approximately how many of theseseeds can be expected to produce plants that are homozygous dominant?

7. In 1910, Thomas Morgan discovered traits linked to sex chromosomes in the fruit fly. The Punnett square above shows the cross between red-eyed females and white-eyed males. Fruit flies usually have red eyes. If a female and male offspring from the cross on right are allowed to mate, what would the offspring probably look like? (make a new punnett square)

A. 2 red-eyed females; 2 white-eyed malesB. 2 red-eyed females; 1 red-eyed male, 1 white-eyed maleC. 1 red-eyed female and 1 white-eyed female; 2 red-eyed malesD. 2 white-eyed females; 1 white-eyed male and 1 red-eyed male.

8. People who can roll their tongues contain a dominant allele for tongue rolling. If people do not contain the

tongue rolling gene, then they cannot roll their tongue no matter how hard they try.

Consider the following situation: If a homozygous dominant tongue roller mates with a homozygous

recessive non-tongue roller, then what is the probability of the offspring inheriting the tongue rolling gene?
