Problems. Please calculate and/or hypothesize answers to the following questi problems. You may use another sheet of paper. 1. A

fter you complete college, you decide to marry an entomologist. While on your honeymoon with your spouse in Costa Rica, you come across a new insect species. Upon getting approval from the Costa Rican government, you and your entomologist take a few male and female insects back to the US so you can study them. You pick a female insect with a purple body and green eyes, while your spouse chooses a male insect with an orange body and brown eyes. Back in the lab, you and your spouse breed the insects so that you, a geneticist, can understand how body color and eye color are inherited among this newly discovered species. Your crosses results in the following progeny:
28 female, purple body and green eyes
12 female, purple body and brown eyes
29 female, orange body and green eyes
8 female, orange body and brown eyes
9 male, purple body and green eyes
29 male, purple body and brown eyes
7 male, orange body and green eyes
30 male, orange body and brown eyes
After looking at these results, what can you conclude about the inheritance of body and eye color in these insects? What is your hypothesis of the inheritance of both traits? Please conduct a chi square test to determine if you support or reject your hypothesis. Please provide the genotypes of the parents and their offspring.

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

Option C: Each granddaughter cell is haploid (n)

Explanation:

A diploid cell is a cell that contains two full sets of chromosomes. Meiosis is a process whereby the the original diploid cell produces 4 cells. These cells contain half of the genetic information that the diploid cell that underwent division contained. These cells that contain half of the chromosome types are referred to as haploids. These haploids have just one complete set of chromosomes whereas the diploid (as the name suggests) has two full sets. Examples of haploids are the reproductive, or sperm, cells that humans have. So essentially, haploids are the reproductive cells that are produced by meiosis.

Now, meiosis divides the cell by 4 whereas, through mitosis however, each cell splits into two. These two cells that were produced are completely identical to each other which means that they have the same number of chromosomes and are, therefore, haploids themselves as well.
