Heterozygous Cp cp chickens express a condition called creeper, in which the leg and wing bones are shorter than normal (cp cp).

The dominant Cp allele is lethal when homozygous. Two alleles of an independently segregating gene determine white (W-) versus yellow (ww) skin color. From matings between chickens heterozygous for both of these genes, what phenotypic classes will be represented among the viable progeny and what are their expected relative frequencies

Answer:

Dihybrid cross:  Cp cp W w  x  Cp cp W w

Gametes= CpW; Cpw; cpW; cpw

Cp Cp: lethal phenotype  

Genotypes:

Cp cp W w >> creeper and white phenotype

Cp cp w w  >> creeper and yellow phenotype  

Cp cp W W >> creeper and white phenotype

cp cp W W >> normal (non-creeper) and white phenotype

cp cp W w >> normal (non-creeper) and white phenotype

cp cp w w >> normal (non-creeper) and yellow phenotype

Since it is a dihybrid cross that involves a lethal allele in homozygous condition (Cp), it is expected a phenotype ratio of 6:3:2:1, it is 6 (Cpcp W_ creeper white) : 3 (cpcp W_ normal white ) : 2 (Cpcp W_ creeper yellow) : 1 (cpcp ww normal yellow). This ratio is expected because it is a distortion from normal segregation proportions (i.e., instead of the 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio associated with dihybrid crosses).

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

the concentration of misfolded proteins would be higher than normal.  

Explanation:

Chaperones proteins are required for the correct protein folding of proteins. These proteins were first discovered in bacteria. The level of chaperones is increased under thermic stress conditions, it is for that reason that they are also known as heat shock proteins (Hsp). For example, Hsp70 is a chaperon protein constitutively expressed under stress conditions that is involved in the folding of protein precursors and the refolding of misfolded proteins. In humans, Hsp70 is encoded by the HSPA1A gene, and its increased expression level is related to different health problems including neurodegenerative diseases, cerebral ischemia and epilepsy.
