Chromosome theory of inheritance - ANSWERSSutton and Boveri independently notes
these parallels and began to develop this
wild type - ANSWERSnormal phenotypes that were common in the fly populations
mutant phenotypes - ANSWERStraits alternative to the wild type
sex-linked gene - ANSWERSa gene that is located on either sex chromosome
x-linked gene - ANSWERSgenes on the X chromosome; the human X chromosomes
contain
Barr Body - ANSWERSthe inactive X condenses into a Barr body
linked genes - ANSWERSgenes that are located on the same chromosome tend to be
inherited together
genetic recombination - ANSWERSproduction of offspring with combinations of traits
differing from either parent (crossing over)
parental types - ANSWERSoffspring with a phenotyes matching one of the parental
phenotypes
recombinant types - ANSWERSoffspring with non-parental phenotypes combination of
traits
genetic map - ANSWERSan ordered list of the genetic loci along a particular
chromosome (farther apart greater the probability crossing over will split the genes)
linkage map - ANSWERSgenetic map of chromosome based on recombination
frequencies
map units - ANSWERSdistance between genes can be expressed as map units; one
map represents 1% of recombinant unit
nondisjunction - ANSWERSpairs of homologs do not separate normally during meiosis;
both maternal 3 and paternal 3 will go on the same side (two copies while one daughter
cell doesn't have any copies)
aneuploidy - ANSWERSfertilization of gametes in which nondisjunction occurred
