Familial Hypercholesterolemia is a familial inherited disease , One allele causes liver cells to be generated without cholesterol receptors, while another causes them to be generated normally . A male with "moderate hypercholesterolemia" married a female with the same disease , the percentage of having a female healthy baby is?
15%
25%
50%
12.5%
After further studies of Mendelian characters , scientists found that eye color character in special cases may not follow "the complete dominance law" . If a male with brown eyes married a female with green eyes , the upcoming offspring may have........ eyes
Brown
Green
Hazel
Grey
.................. Refers specifically to the genes, not the traits; that is, the raw information in an organism’s DNA .and it is is the collection of genes responsible for the various genetic traits of a given organism
Nucleotides
Chromosome
Genotype
Phenotype
if you met someone with albinism you would know they most likely have a mutated TYR gene, because that’s the most common cause of albinism. That mutated TYR gene is part of their genotype. Albinism is part of their...........

Nucleotides
According to mendel law If you crossed two heterozygous plants, how many of the offspring will also be heterozygous?
All
Half
3/4
1/4
What is a factor that is covered up by another trait?
Recessive
Dominant
The only pair of chromosomes that you may inherit from your parents carrying the same typical genetic information are:
Homologous chromosomes
Homologous alleles
Sex chromosomes
All of the above
All the genetic material that makes up an organism
Gamete

What was the key factor in the success in Mendel's experiments
He started with plants that were native to the area
He started with several different types of plants
He started with self-pollinating purebred plants
He started with cross-pollinating flowering plants
Refer to the illustration. The child in box 1 in the Punnett square would

Have an extra freckles chromosome
Be heterozygous for freckles
Not have freckles
