Question

For genes that are in linkage, the linked genes can be either in cis confirmation or trans conformation. A cross was made between two parents that have genes that are linked. Below is given the alleles.

XZ/xz, Xz/xZ, xz/XZ

Which alleles are in the cis confirmation?

ANSWER: _______________________________

Which alleles are in the trans confirmation?

ANSWER: _______________________________

If genes are unknown if they are linked, what is the symbol for identification of unknown linkage between genes?   

ANSWER: _______________________________

Explanation / Answer

Ans-1 cis conformation allels include in which dominant alleles are on same homologus like Xz/xZ

Ans-2 trans conformation are those in which dominant alleles are on across position like XZ/xz and xz/XZ

Ans-3 The symbol is A/a . B/b

Three spaces between both genes.
