Question # 1

What is heterogametic individual?Give example.

  • Ans 1: Male grasshopper is XO because it has only one X chromosome.The other sex chromosome is missing entirely.Male is heterogametic because it forms two type of sperms,half the sperms have X chromosome while the other half are without any sex chromosome.

Question # 1

Define polygenic Inheritance.Give example.

  • Ans 1: Polygenic inheritance is that which is controlled by more than two pairs of gene are called polyegneic traits.For example wheat grain color,human eye and skin color.

Question # 1

Differentiate between co-dominance and over dominance.

  • Ans 1: Co-dominance: Different alleles of a gene that are both expressed in a heterozygous condition are called codominant and this phenomenon is called codominance.e.g if a man of M blood group marries a woman of N blood group,all their children will have MN blood group.
  • Ans 2: Over-dominance: This dominance relation is fascinating because the overdominant heterozygote exceeds in quantity the phenotypic expression of both the homozygotes.e.g In fruit fly Drosophila the heterozygote W+/W or white eye w/w homozygotes.

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

How sex is determined in yeast?

  • Ans 1: Sex determination in yeast depends upon genic system.In this system the sexes are determined by simple allelic difference at a small number of gene loci e.g,a and a are the two mating types or sexes of yeast controlled by MAT a and MAT.a alleles respectively.

Question # 1

How sex is determined in plants?

  • Ans 1: Plants show a variety of sexual situations.Some species like Ginkgo are dio-ecious having plants of separate sexes.Male plants produce flower with only stamens and female plants produce flower with only carpels.Some dioecious plants have a difference of sex chromosome between the sexes.These have an X-Y system.These plants typically exhibit an X-choromosome autosome balance system for sex determination.
