Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 75%

Cevap

75% of the offspring are expected to have black fur.

Crossing two heterozygous parents (

Bb \times Bb

) produces genotypes in a 1 BB : 2 Bb : 1 bb ratio. Because black fur is dominant, both

BB

(25%) and

Bb

(50%) display black fur, resulting in a total expected phenotype of 75% black fur.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the parental genotypes and set up the monohybrid cross.

The cross is

Bb \times Bb

, where each parent contributes either a

B

b

allele.

Both parents are heterozygous, carrying one dominant allele and one recessive allele.

Construct a

2 \times 2

Punnett square to determine offspring genotype probabilities.

Genotype distribution is

1\ BB

(25%),

2\ Bb

(50%), and

1\ bb

(25%).

Combining alleles from both parents yields four equally likely outcomes.

Determine which genotypes result in the black fur phenotype.

Both

BB

(25%) and

Bb

(50%) produce black fur, totaling

25\% + 50\% = 75\%

The dominant allele (

B

) masks the recessive allele (

b

), so both homozygous dominant and heterozygous genotypes express the dominant trait.

A pea plant has the heterozygous genotype $Tt$ , where $T$ represents the dominant allele for purple flowers and $t$ represents the recessive allele for white flowers. What color flowers will this plant produce?

White flowers

Purple flowers

Light pink flowers

Striped purple and white flowers

Cevap: Purple flowers

Cevap

The plant will produce purple flowers because the presence of the dominant allele masks the recessive allele.

In a heterozygous individual (

Tt

), the dominant allele (

T

) masks the expression of the recessive allele (

t

). Because

T

codes for purple flowers, the plant exhibits the dominant purple flower phenotype.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: False

Cevap

False. An organism exhibiting a dominant phenotype can possess either a homozygous dominant or a heterozygous genotype.

In complete dominance, a dominant allele masks the expression of a recessive allele. An individual can express the dominant phenotype through two distinct genotypes: homozygous dominant (having two copies of the dominant allele) or heterozygous (having one dominant and one recessive allele). Thus, displaying the dominant phenotype does not require a homozygous genotype.

Genotype represents the specific combination of alleles (

AA

Aa

Cevap: True

Cevap

True

Because biological males have an

In genetics, which statement correctly describes a dominant allele?

It is always the most common allele found in a population.

It is expressed in an organism's phenotype even if only one copy is inherited.

It must be inherited from both parents in order to be expressed physically.

It physically alters the nucleotide sequence of the recessive allele during reproduction.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: It is expressed in an organism's phenotype even if only one copy is inherited.

Cevap

A dominant allele is expressed in an organism's phenotype even if only one copy is inherited.

A dominant allele masks the effect of a recessive allele; therefore, an organism only needs to inherit one copy to display the associated phenotype.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the definition of allele dominance in genetics.

Dominance refers to an allele that masks the phenotypic contribution of a paired recessive allele.

Understanding how alleles interact in heterozygous pairs allows for the prediction of physical traits.

Determine the minimum number of dominant alleles needed for phenotypic expression.

Only one copy of a dominant allele is required to display the dominant phenotype.

Because the dominant allele masks the recessive allele, an organism with either one or two dominant alleles will display the trait.

In an isolated bird population, the allele for a crested head ( $C$ ) is completely dominant over the allele for a smooth head ( $c$ ). Field biologists observe that only 2% of the population possesses a crested head. A researcher mates a heterozygous crested bird with a smooth-headed bird. Which of the following identifies the expected phenotypic probability for their offspring and correctly explains the low prevalence of the dominant trait in the wild?

50% crested, 50% smooth; The

C

allele has a low frequency in the gene pool, demonstrating that dominance controls individual expression rather than population prevalence.

75% crested, 25% smooth; Because the trait is dominant, the

C

allele will inherently multiply and eventually become the most common phenotype in the population.

50% crested, 50% smooth; Dominant traits always appear in the majority of a population, meaning the 2% field observation must be scientifically inaccurate.

100% crested, 0% smooth; The dominant

C

allele completely suppresses the recessive

c

allele in the population, making the smooth-headed phenotype mathematically impossible in this cross.

Cevap: 50% crested, 50% smooth; The $C$ allele has a low frequency in the gene pool, demonstrating that dominance controls individual expression rather than population prevalence.

Cevap

50% crested, 50% smooth; The

C

allele has a low frequency in the gene pool, demonstrating that dominance controls individual expression rather than population prevalence.

The correct answer accurately calculates the 50% crested and 50% smooth phenotypic ratio from a

Cc \times cc

cross. It also correctly states that dominant alleles only determine phenotypic expression in a heterozygote, not the frequency of the allele in the population's gene pool.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Determine the genotypes of both parent birds based on the provided text.

The crested parent is heterozygous (

Cc

cc

(smooth).

Mendelian segregation dictates that the heterozygous parent contributes the

C

allele 50% of the time and the

c

allele 50% of the time, while the homozygous recessive parent always contributes the

c

allele.

Evaluate the conceptual statements regarding the low population frequency (2%) of the dominant crested trait.

Dominance describes how alleles interact within a single organism's genotype, not how frequently that allele appears in the entire population. Therefore, a dominant trait can be rare if the dominant allele itself is rare in the gene pool.

This resolves the apparent contradiction in the prompt and eliminates options relying on the misconception that dominant traits must be common.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Dominance determines phenotypic expression in heterozygotes, not how common an allele is in a population.

Cevap

Dominance determines phenotypic expression in heterozygotes, not how common an allele is in a population.

Allele dominance describes how an allele manifests phenotypically in an individual organism (specifically, that a heterozygous genotype exhibits the dominant phenotype). It has no direct bearing on the allele's frequency or prevalence within the overall population gene pool, which is determined by evolutionary forces like natural selection, mutation rate, and genetic drift.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Differentiate between genetic dominance and population allele frequency.

Dominance refers to the relationship between alleles at the individual/organismal level (a dominant allele masks a recessive allele in a heterozygote). Allele frequency refers to the proportion of a specific allele in the population's gene pool.

Clarifies the fundamental definition of dominance versus population prevalence.

Analyze why a dominant trait can remain rare within a population.

A dominant allele can exist at low frequency if it originally arose as a rare mutation or if it does not confer a selective survival or reproductive advantage.

Explains that population dynamics (natural selection, drift, mutation) govern frequency, not dominance.

Identify the statement that accurately reflects this biological distinction.

The statement explaining that dominance governs heterozygote expression rather than population abundance is correct.

Cevap

The correct pairings are: Incomplete Dominance matches the intermediate pink snapdragon phenotype; Codominance matches the simultaneous expression of both A and B blood group antigens; Polygenic Inheritance matches continuous trait variation across multiple gene loci; and Sex-Linked Recessive Inheritance matches the higher trait incidence in hemizygous biological males.

Each genetic term matches its defining physiological and phenotypic characteristics: Incomplete dominance produces an intermediate heterozygous phenotype (pink flowers); codominance results in distinct simultaneous expression of both alleles (type AB blood); polygenic inheritance yields a continuous distribution of traits through additive effects across multiple distinct genes; and X-linked recessive traits show disproportionate male expression due to hemizygosity.

Differentiate between blended and co-expressed heterozygous phenotypes.

Incomplete dominance yields an intermediate blended trait (red

This establishes the distinction between allelic interactions at a single gene locus.

In humans, the allele for having freckles ( $F$ ) is dominant over the allele for not having freckles ( $f$ ). If an individual inherits the heterozygous genotype $Ff$ , which physical characteristic will they display?

They will not have freckles because recessive traits are expressed more frequently in populations.

They will not have freckles because two copies of a dominant allele are required for expression.

They will have freckles because a single dominant allele is sufficient to mask the recessive allele.

They will show an intermediate blend because dominant and recessive alleles always mix equally.

Cevap: They will have freckles because a single dominant allele is sufficient to mask the recessive allele.

Cevap

They will have freckles because a single dominant allele is sufficient to mask the recessive allele.

Because the allele for freckles (

F

) is dominant, an individual with the heterozygous genotype (

Ff

) only needs one copy of the dominant allele to display freckles. The dominant allele completely masks the expression of the recessive allele (

f

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the relationship between the two alleles given in the problem.

The allele

F

(freckles) is dominant, and

f

(no freckles) is recessive.

Determining which allele is dominant establishes the rule of expression.

Determine the physical phenotype produced by the heterozygous genotype

Ff

The organism expresses the dominant trait (having freckles).

In simple Mendelian inheritance, having at least one dominant allele results in the dominant phenotype.
