Chapter 13:
What is the difference between diploid and haploid? How are they represented?
Which type of reproduction will result in genetically identical offspring?
What is the difference between a somatic and germ cell?
What is a karyotype?
Explain what is meant by homologous chromosomes.
Sketch a diagram that correctly represents: sister chromatids, homologous chromosomes, centromere and then answer the following questions about your diagram.
How many chromosomes does your cell have?
How many homologous pairs of chromosomes?
How many chromatids?
Is the cell haploid or diploid?
What is the process that produces gametes?
What is another term for a fertilized egg? How does the chromosome number of a …show more content…
What is the genotypic ratio of the F2 generation?
What is the phenotypic ratio of the F2 generation?
Mendel crossed parent plants to analyze the position of the flowers. Axial flowers grow along the stem while terminal flowers grow at the tips of the stem. A homozygous dominant axial plant is crossed with a homozygous recessive terminal plant.
Diagram the cross resulting in the F1 generation.
What is the possibility of obtaining a homozygous plant in this generation?
What is the possibility of obtaining a heterozygous plant in this generation?
What is the possibility of obtaining a terminal plant in the F2 generation? Show your work.
What is the possibility of obtaining an axial plant in the F2 generation? Show your work.
In Venetian violets, three phenotypes occur with respect to flower color: a deep violet-almost black (Midnight); a white; a pale lavender. Two pale lavender flowered individuals have been crossed. The F1 from this cross has individuals with pale lavender flowers but also individuals with Midnight flowers and individuals with white flowers.
What would the expected phenotypic ratio be in these F1 plants?
What are the genotypes for the different flower
