Question

PART 1B (8 pts) B. You find that the mutations that cause 1 km/h and 2 km/h speeds are indeed in separate genes (gene A and gene B, respectively). These mutations are in genes encoding proteins that produce speed-related hormones You create double heterozygotes bearing these mutations which you indicate as: A, B WT alleles in gene A and B a- allele for 1 km/h speed b allele for 2 km/h speed Aa'Bb You mate these double heterozygotes together to perform a dihybrid cross. What are the expected phenotype ratios of the progeny if a. The pathway below is correct? Explain your answer (4 pts) slowness hormone b. The pathway below is correct? Explain your answer (4 pts) slowness slowness hormone 1 hormone 2

Explanation / Answer

(B) the phenotype comeing is one is slow harmone AB and tow speed harmone Ab2, a1b and one double speed harmone a1b2.

(a) yes, the pathway below is correct because both of the harmones A and B are slow harmones.

(b)yes, the pathway below is correct because both the harmones A and B are slow harmones.
