Question # 1

Differentiate between multiple alleles and polygenes..

  • Ans 1: Multiple alleles: If a gene has more than two alternate forms these are called multiple alleles.For example alleles for ABO blood group. E.g,alleles for ABO blood group.
  • Ans 2: Polygenes: When a continuously varying trait is controlled by alleles for two or more than two different gene pairs found at different loci,all influencing the same trait in an additive way,such genes are called polygenes, e.g,genes for controlling skin and eye colour in human.

Question # 1

What is XO-XX mechanism of sex determination?

  • Ans 1: This pattern of Inheritance is found in grasshopper and protenor bug.Male is XO because male has one x chromosomes,the other x chromosomes is missing and female is xx,it is homogametic because it forms all gametes of same type with one X chromosome.Male is heterogametic because it forms two types sperms: half sperms have X chromosomes and other half are without X chromosomes.
    When sperm with X chromosomes is fused with an egg having X chromosomes female offspring is produced and when sperms without X chromosomes is fused with egg then male offspring will be produced.

Question # 1

Define product rule and pseudoautosomal genes.

  • Ans 1: The genes which are located both on x and y chromosomes are called x and y linked genes or pseudoautosomal genes because their pattern of inheritance is like autosomal genes.
  • Ans 2: Product rule: When we multiply probabilities of two different event,this phenomenon is called product rule.

Question # 1

What is hypophosphatemic rickets?

  • Ans 1: It is an X linked dominant trait.It is rare hereditary disease.it does not result from vitamin D deficiency but its cause is a genetic communication failure at molecular level.The genes encoding bone proteins never receive vitamin D message to function.
