A: If I changed the allele to an H‚ the horns appeared. However‚ the h did not allow for the horns to show. Q: 2. Refer to your rules for Horns. Which allele (H or h) is the dominant allele?

expected data. Therefore we were able to accept our null hypothesis for all crosses. Introduction Drosophila melanogaster are very useful tool in the study of genetics. The gene studied is called apterous‚ with recessive allele producing very tiny wings and the dominant allele of the same gene leading to wild type wing structure. In this experiment we are hoping to determine phenotypic ratios and dominant vs. recessive traits by cross breeding two different types of Drosophila; such as wild type

Dominance Incomplete dominance is a form of intermediate inheritance in which one allele for a specific trait is not completely dominant over the other allele. This results in a third phenotype in which the expressed physical trait is a combination of the dominant and recessive phenotypes. Incomplete dominance is similar to‚ but different from co-dominance. In co-dominance‚ an additional phenotype is produced ‚ however both alleles are expressed completely. Co-dominance is exemplified in AB blood type inheritance

Hemochromatosis Introduction Hemochromatosis is the most common genetic disorder in Canada. It is a condition of Iron overload‚ that is‚ when the body absorbs Iron more than normal. This disorder has two forms. Primary Hemochromatosis‚ also Heredity Hemochromatosis‚ is a genetic disorder that is inherited from the parents. In this situation more Iron is absorbed into the Gastro-Intestinal tract. This results into Liver swelling. Another form of this disorder is the Secondary Hemochromatosis‚ also

one or more generations. Each gene has a set of traits‚ called alleles that dictate which characteristic that individual will have. Every trait of someone‚ in humans‚ from eye color and nose size to overall height and ability to wiggle one’s ears‚ is determined by which alleles that particular gene has‚ and which of those alleles is the dominate one. So‚ the genes that dictate nose size and shape may have‚ for example‚ an allele for Mom’s little button-like nose or for Dad’s big‚ ski-slope nose

individual‚ the trait is coded for by TWO alleles. In the population‚ one of the alleles is dominant and one is recessive. Individuals with two dominant alleles (homozygous dominant) have curvy-tipped flippers and individuals with two recessive alleles (homozygous recessive) have pointy-tipped flippers. Heterozygotes have curvy-tipped flippers. Let’s say the question asks you about the dominant allele… it could say‚ “the frequency of the dominant allele in the population is”… or it could say‚ “p
