You study eye formation using Mexican cave-dwelling blind fish. You know that blindness is a trait controlled by multiple genes

and inherited in a recessive manner. A blind fish from a true-breeding line in one cave was crossed to a blind fish from a true-breeding line in anothercave. If the mutation that causes blindness is in two different genes in the two fish, you should see:

Answer:

The whole progeny will be <u>not-blinded</u>. All the individuals in the F1 will be able to see.          

Explanation:  

Multiple genes can affect the same trait. Two blind fishes can produce not-blinded offspring because parents have mutations in two different genes. This is a case of <u>complementation</u>. When parents have a mutation in the same gene, this process is known as non-complementation, and in these cases, their progeny will exhibit the mutated trait.

We know that blindness is a trait controlled by multiple genes and inherited in a recessive manner. So we need at least two genes to have not-blinded eyes, and in the exposed example the mutation that causes blindness is in fact in two different genes.

So let´s say that genes B and E are two genes involved in eye formation and that their respective recessive alleles will express blindness. Then:

Cross: A blind fish from a true-breeding line in B gene crossed to a blind fish from a true-breeding line in E gene.

Parental) BB ee   x   bb EE

Gametes) Be   Be   Be   Be

                 bE   bE   bE  bE

Punnet square)    Be      Be      Be      Be

                   bE   BbEe  BbEe  BbEe  BbEe

                   bE   BbEe  BbEe  BbEe  BbEe

                   bE   BbEe  BbEe  BbEe  BbEe

                   bE   BbEe  BbEe  BbEe  BbEe

F1) 100 %  BbEe, heterozygote for both genes. None of the F1 individuals are blind.

Determine the level of measurement of the variable with explanation.
Pavlova-9 [17]

It has properties of the ordinal level of measurement and the differences in the values of the variable have meaning. A value of zero in the interval level of measurement does not mean the absence of the quantity. Arithmetic operations such as addition and subtraction can be performed on values of the variable is called interval.  While nominal the values of the variables name, label or categorize. In addition, the naming scheme does not allow values of the variables to be arranged in a ranked or specific, order.
