Following tetrads are observed in yeast crosses involving three pairs of heterozygous genetic markers (A/a; B/b) (C/c; D/d) (E/e; F/f):
Cross I (A/a; B/b) Cross II (C/c; D/d) Cross III (E/e; F/f) AB Ab CD CD EF Ef EF AB Ab CD Cd EF Ef Ef ab aB cd cD ef eF eF ab aB cd cd ef eF ef
---- ----- ------ ----- ---- ----- ---- 95 90 50 20 80 5 20
What is the genetic map distance (in cM or M) between the two pairs of loci in each of the three crosses?
Albinism, the total lack of pigment, is due to a recessive gene. A man and woman plan to marry and wish to know the probability of their having any albino children. What are the probabilities if:
1. both are normally pigmented, but each has one albino parent.
2. the man is an albino, the girl is normal, but her father is an albino.
3. the man is an albino and the girl's family includes no albinos for at least three generations.
If two genes are 50cM apart, are they linked or unlinked? Give brief reason for your answer.
Black fur (B) is dominant to white fur (b) in guinea pigs. An F1 cross was conducted and resulted in 100% heterozygous guinea pigs (Bb). What is the genotypic ratio outcome of the F2 generation which would cross two heterozygotes?
A pure - breeding black pig is crossed with a pure - breeding white prg & work out the genoty pic & Phenoty psc raciso of fland fy of spring, if gene for block coat as domination
How does paternity testing help with identifying linkage to genetic diseases that can have an impact on their long term health.
This is a genetics’ question relating to biology and we are required to create a pedigree for the question.

In a pea plant that breeds true for tall, what possible gametes can be produced? Use the symbol D for tall, d for dwarf.
Should GMO (genetically modified) foods be labelled so that consumers know that they are buying them?
Does it matter what species of plants/crops are being used for genetic modification of foods? In other words, should GMO foods be allowed only for certain species?
