QUESTION 6 [8 marks] For each description of a situation or phenomenon below (a,b,c, etc.), add to the dotted line the term on the right that is most relevant, describes most closely, or completes the description. The answer will never be a term that also occurs within the description. Each term can be used only once. Some terms will remain unused. Description a) If I mate with a someone who is homozygous recessive, our progeny will reveal my genotype: b) The boy with Down syndrome wanted a more precise term to describe his aneuploidy: c) Human males are heterogametic due to differences in their d) The mutant allele affected the phenotype, even in the presence of the wild type allele: e) The alleles of the two genes were too close on the same chromosome to assort independently: f) The possible genotypes and their probabilities were easy to predict this way: g) Human males have only one copy of most genes on their X chromosome: h) Without this, chromosomes would accumulate too many mutations and the organism would not survive: i) In a population, the probability of homozygosity is the allele frequency multiplied by the j) "Hybridisation" occurs when you combine things that are: k) A more accurate genetics term for the "blending" of allelic phenotypes is I) The child suffered from a rare, recessive genetic disease, likely inherited from one of its great grandparents: m) One quarter of the guinea pig progeny had curly hair: n) We measured the % rate of recombination between the two loci on the chromosome to determine the genetic distance separating them: 0) Deleting one copy of the gene changed the phenotype: p) When individuals mate, the alleles of any one gene combine randomly in the progeny:
