AIEDAR B?MYH 16 C) SRY D) IGF 23) inheritance in which the trait is produced from the cumulative effects of many genes A) Peotropic B) incomplete penetrance C) Variable expressivity D)Polygenic 24) nmethylated agouti gene has been seen to lead to A) Yellow, obese mice B) Thin brown mice

Explanation / Answer

18. It is dihydrid cross as there are two genes involved. The R gene has two alleles R and r and the Y gene has two alleles Y and y.

Right option is B. Dihybrid

19. A pair of chromosomes that pairs during meiosis are known as homologous chromosome. Human has 23 homologous chromosomes: 22 are autosomes and one is sex chromosomes.

Right options is A. 23

20. Incomplete penetrance is expression of different degree of phenotype in among individuals that have the same genotype.

Right option is B. Incomplete penetrance

21. More than 75% of human DNA does not code for any functional proteins. This DNA include non coding sequences, introns. Only 1-2% DNA codes for functional proteins.

Right option is C. 98% of our DNA codes for genes.

22. SRY gene is linked to violent crime. More than 95% of violent crime offenders are males that have SRY gene. Around 5% are women that lack SRY.SRY has been linked to aggressive behavior in men.

Right option is C. SRY

23. Polygenic traits are traits that are expressed by activity of many genes. Skin color in human is a polygenic trait due to atleast three genes.

Right option is D. Polygenic

24. The agouti gene is subject to methylation. When it is methylated, coat color is brown and the mice are thin. However, when it is unmethylated, the coat color is yellow and mice are obese and prone to diabetes and cancer.

Right option is A. Yellow obese mice
