A woman with a balanced reciprocal translocation of Chromosomes 4 and 20 (karyotype, right panel below) is trying to reproduce with a man of normal karyotype (left panel below). Please answer: 1) What are the karyotypes of their respective gametes ()? 2) What are the karyotypes of their potential offspring ()? 3) What are the percentages of cach karyotype (gametes and offspring) ()? 4) Indicate which karyotype (of the offspring) will be lethal, carrier or normal (). 5) Do she have reduced fertility and why?

Human females have two X chromosomes (XX); males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY). a. With respect to X-linked alleles, how many different types of gametes can a male produce? b. If a female is homozygous for an X-linked allele, how many types of gametes can she produce with respect to that allele? c. If a female is heterozygous for an X-linked allele, how many types of gametes can she produce with respect to that allele?
A couple comes into a fertility clinic. A chromosome preparation is made for each and the male is found to have an aberrant karyotype. He is heterozygous for two sets of reciprocal translocations involving four different chromosome pairs. What proportion of his gametes are expected to be functional and viable?
A diploid (2n) trihybrid individual with the genotype EeFfGg can make eight genetically different gametes. Loci E/e and F/f are on chromosome 1 and locus G/g is on chromosome 2. Explain how a gamete containing the alleles e, f and g may be produced by meiosis. Refer specifically to meiotic events occurring during Prophase I, Metaphase I, Anaphase I and Anaphase II. (NB: remember to refer to the organism above).
Give the chromosomal constitution & related sex in each of the following :-i) Turner syndromeii) Klinefilter syndrome
Using the images of meiosis found in this microscope image of meiosis, create a biological drawing for any two stages of meiosis (prophase I or II, metaphase I or II, anaphase I or II, or telophase I or II). Both cells should be included in the same drawing.
How many different types of gametes can you produce from this cell heterozygous for two genes (AaFf)? (2)
If a diploid individual is in = 5 how many chromosomes are in a somatic (non-gamete) cell?
Suppose you discover two interesting rare cytological abnormalities in the karyotype of a human male. (Akaryotype is the total visible chromosome complement.) There is an extra piece (satellite) on one of the chromosomes of pair 4, and there is an abnormal pattern of staining on one of the chromosomes of pair 7. With the assumption that all the gametes of this male are equally viable, what proportion of his children will have the same karyotype that he has?
What are the possible abnormal gametes the male can produce with non-disjunction occurring in Meiosis II? Identify the possible sexual aneuploidy syndrome if these abnormal sperm cells are fertilized by a normal egg cell. Could this man father a Tuner syndrome (XO) child? Could this man father a Klinefelter's syndrome child (XXY)?
A male Drosophila melanogaster has the genotype A/a; B/b; C/c; XD/Y (all genes are on separate chromosomes). How many different sperm genotypes can it produce through meiosis of one single pre-gametic (2n) cell? (remember, there is no crossing over in male Drosophila) Explain.
A diploid germ cell containing "2n" number of chromosomes undergoes meiosis to produce four daughter cells. If a nondisjunction of an autosome happens during meiosis I, what are the chromosomal complements of the four daughter cells? Below the four circles represent the four daughter cells. Please fill in the chromosomal number by choosing from n-1, n, or n+1. oooo
The letters below represent genes found on different chromosome pairs. Letters that are similar represent one gene found in a pair of homologous chromosomes. Another letter represents another gene found in another pair of chromosomes. Draw how these different pairs of chromosomes behave during meiosis. Show the complete phases of meiosis for each of the following: (a) Cc (b)BbCC (c)DdEe (d) AAbbCc (e) AaBbCcDd
