segregated.

monohybrid.

dominant.

recessive.

Question 8: Kelly is blood group AB, Jacob is blood group B, and their daughter is blood group B. Given this information, it would be impossible for the couple to have a child with which of the following blood groups?

100%

Question 10: Which of the following human genetic disorders is sex-linked?

Question 11: In humans, the presence or absence of dimples is a trait controlled by a single gene. What is the genotype of an individual who is heterozygous for dimples?

Question 12:

Mendel made some crosses where he looked at two characteristics at once: round yellow peas crossed with wrinkled green peas, for example. He did this because he wanted to find out

whether different characters were inherited together or separately.

how plants and animals adapt to their environments.

how new characters originated.

whether the characters influence each other; for example, whether color affects degree of roundness.

Question 13: An individual with the genotype AaBb produces four different gametes in equal proportions. This is a demonstration of

linkage.

Mendel's law of independent assortment.

Mendel's principle of segregation.

crossing over.

X; women

X; men

Y; women

Y; men

Question 15: Chromosomes that are not sex chromosomes are called

centrosomes.

allosomes.

dominant.

autosomes.

at corresponding locations on homologous chromosomes.

on the X and Y chromosomes.

next to each other on the same chromosome.

at different locations on the same chromosome.

Question 17: Hypohosphatemia (vitamin D-resistant rickets) is inherited as a sex-linked dominant trait. The relevant gene is found on the X chromosome. What is the expected outcome of a cross between a homozygous recessive woman and a man with hypophosphatemia?

All of their daughters and none of their sons exhibit hypophosphatemia.

All of their sons and none of their daughters exhibit hypophosphatemia.
