You are following segregation of five unlinked genes in a cross – A, B, C, D and E. Dominant alleles are capital letters and rec

essive are lower case. Being homozygous recessive for all five genes produces a multigenetic trait such as bipolar disorder. Two unaffected parents with the genotypes – aa bb Cc Dd Ee x aa Bb Cc dd Ee mate. What is the frequency expected for one child to have the affected genotype of being all homozygous recessive genotype – aa bb cc dd ee?

Answer:

1/64 = 0.015625

Explanation:

Genotype of parents:  aa bb Cc Dd Ee x aa Bb Cc dd Ee

To calculate the frequency of the child with desired genotype, individual frequency of desired genotype can be calculated followed by application of product rule.

aa x aa = All aa

bb x Bb= 1/2 bb: 1/2 Bb

Cc x Cc= 1/4 CC: 1/2 Cc : 1/4 cc

Dd x dd = 1/2 Dd: 1/2 dd

Ee x Ee= 1/4 EE: 1/2 Ee: 1/4 ee

Expected frequency of the child with desired genotype= 1 aa x 1/2 bb x 1/4 cc x 1/2 dd x 1/4 ee = 1/2 x 1/4 x 1/2 x 1/4 = 1/64 = 0.015625

Pooh had a colony of tiggers whose stripes went across the body. His American pen-pal, Yogi, sent him a tigger whose stripes ran

In this case, the parental are lengthwise stripes (genotype ls/ls) and plaid stripes (genotype Ps/Ps), the F1 is plaid (100%) and F2 is plaid (75%) and lengthwise (25%). It is a Mendelian inheritance pattern.

<h3>Mendelian inheritance and complete dominance</h3>

Complete dominance occurs when the dominant allele (in this case, the plaid stripe trait) completely masks the recessive allele (lengthwise stripes) in heterozygous individuals.

The cross between tigers having lengthwise stripes (genotype ls/ls) and plaid stripes (genotype Ps/Ps) will produce an F1 100% having the plaid stripes (genotype Ps/ls) trait because this trait is dominant.

In the F2 obtained by crossing heterozygous plaid stripes individuals (genotype Ps/ls), the recessive trait 'lengthwise stripes' will be observed (again) in a proportion of 3:1.

In this case:

  • P >> lengthwise stripes x plaid stripes
  • F1 >> 100% plaid stripes
  • F2 >> plaid stripes (75%) and lengthwise-stripes (25%)

A banana plant produces rhizomes, which are involved in ______.​
stira [4]
Rhizomes are involved in the production of stems and “reproduction” of new plant parts. It has been theorized that rhizomes, when removed, can grow into completely new (but genetically identical) plants! It’s kind of like budding, so it’s pretty cool.

I hope I helped!
