  • (b) Sex chromosomes and their evolution, sex determination in Drosophila and human.

    • Sex chromosomes and their evolution
      • What phenotypic ratio do you expect from the following crosses with reference to colour blindness in human beings?
      • The Genotype of the parent is as under: 2n + XhY × 2n + X0xh. Indicate the type of Gametes that will be formed, and character represented by their Offsprings. Also indicate whether the parents are carriers or free from disorder. Find out: (i) Percentage of carriers. (ii) Percentage of haemophilic sons and daughters. (iii) Percentage of normal offsprings. Why does haemophilia occur? Give the symptoms of haemophilia. How is haemophilia genetically inherited?
