Question

7) Why are reciprocal crosses performed? a) To determine if a mutant allele is dominant or recessive to the wild-type allele b) To determine if an allele is X-linked or autosomal c) To determine if an allele is lethal d) To determine the linkage relationship between two genes 8) Which statement below is a reason test crosses are performed? a) To determine if a mutant allele is dominant or recessive to the wild-type allele b) To determine if an allele is X-linked or autosomal c) To determine if an allele is lethal d) To determine the linkage relationship between two genes 9) You suspect that the mini allele is a recessive lethal allele. Which cross below would you perform (starting with new flies) to determine this. a) mini male crossed with mini female b) wild-type male crossed with mini female c) mini male crossed with wild-type female d) wild-type male crossed with wild-type female 10) What results would indicate that mini was a recessive lethal allele based on the cross for question 9. a) all offspring are mini b) all offspring are wild-type c)% are mini and ½ are wild-type d) 2/3 are mini and 1/3 are wild-type

Explanation / Answer

Your answers are provided below

7) To determine if an allele is X-linked or autosomal.

8) To determine if the allele is dominant or recessive to the wild type allele
