MULTIPLE CHOICE. Choose the one alternative that best completes the statement or answers the
question.
1) The chance of each of two independent events happening are ________ to determine the 1)
probability that both events would happen together.
A) multiplied by each
B) added together
C) multiplied by two
D) squared
E) divided by two
2) In genetics, Baysian analysis uses ________. 2)
A) court testimony to determine the chance of disease in an individual
B) known or inferred genotype information, along with information from related offspring
to make predictions about the probability of a certain genotype in an individual
C) numerical information to predict the chance of disease
D) DNA sequencing to determine the genotype of an individual
E) electrophoresis to determine the genotype of an individual
3) A couple comes to you for advice about genetic testing for a rare early-onset dominant 3)
condition. The paternal grandfather had the condition, but no one else in the family has had it
including the male partner in this couple. Do you recommend testing? Why?
A) no, we can deduce that neither partner has a disease allele
B) no, the male partner is definitely a carrier and so the outcome is certain
C) yes, the male partner is definitely a carrier
D) no, both parents would have to have the disease allele to have an affected child
E) yes, testing is expensive, but worth the price, even when unnecessary
4) A family with two unaffected parents and a child with a recessive disease would like to know 4)
what the probability is that one of their unaffected children might be a carrier. What do you
tell them?
A) the chance that an unaffected child is a carrier is 2/3
B) the chance that an unaffected child is a carrier is 0%
C) the chance that an unaffected child is a carrier is 75%
D) the chance that an unaffected child is a carrier is 50%
E) the chance that an unaffected child is a carrier is less than 50%
