Question

of EPAS1 s have revealed that the Tibetan" allele is recessive to the "regular" allele. Only individuals with two copies of the "Tibetan Additional studies the allele will have the improved high-altitude functioning that the "Tibetan" allele confers. Can you trace the inheritance of the EPAS1 alleles in the family shown in this pedigree? Note: Now that you know that the "regular" allele is dominant and the "Tibetan" allele is recessive, use the standard designations for dominant and recessive alleles: R -"regular" EPAS1 allele Tibetan" EPAS1 allele dentify each family member's genotype in this pedigree for high-altitude adaptation If you can't tell with certainty whether an individual is homozygous dominant or heterozygous dominant, place the label "RR or Rr" in that box

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

a--Rr

b---Rr

c----RR or Rr

d----rr (high-altitide adaptation)

e----rr (high-altitide adaptation)

f----Rr

g----rr (high-altitide adaptation)

h---Rr
