Question

You are analyzing whole genome sequencing data from mutant flies with abnormally-shabeu fruit yes. Each circle on the graph indicates the number of sequence reads (y coordinate) a 200 obtained for a 100 bp sequence starting at the 100 position on chromosome 2 that is shown by the x Z -M coordinate 15.1 15.3 15.2 Position on Chromosome 2 (Mb) What is the most likely conclusion from your data? a The mutant fruit flies are trisomic for chromosome 2 b. The mutant fruit flies are hetero us for a duplication of Chromosome 2 region 15.2-15.4 SC he mutant fruit flies are mo ous for a duplication of Chromosome 2 region 15.2-15.4 The mutant fruit flies are heterozygous for a deletion of Chromosome 2 region 15.2-15.4 A. The mutant fruit flies are homo for a deletion of Chromosome 2 region 15.2-15.4

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

Diploid organisms possessing the same allele at the same locus on each homologue are homozygous for that trait; in chromosome 2 15.2 -15.4 position the fly shows most of the bases covering the position are same , thats why it is homozygous
