    Chromosomal analysis isolates chromosome pairs so they can be visualized to detect abnormalities. A karyotype is used to identify Trisomy 21, which is seen in the sample karyotype showing an extra chromosome on pair 21, indicating a male patient has Down syndrome. Gel electrophoresis uses restriction enzymes to cut DNA into fragments, which are then separated by size in an agarose gel with electricity to analyze DNA fingerprints for uses like criminal investigations and determining parentage. Genetically modified organisms have had their DNA altered, like vegetables engineered for pest resistance or growth traits. The Human Genome Project took 13 years and mapped the entire human genome sequence.

    6H Test Review Answers

    1.

    What is chromosomal analysis? Chromosomal analysis is a procedure that isolates the chromosome
    pairs so that they may be visualized to determine abnormalities.

    2.

    What structure (picture) do we use to determine Trisomy 21? A karyotype is used to study chromosomal
    abnormalities

    3.

    What is the anomaly in the karyotype below? Is the human a female or male? Trisomy 21 (extra
    chromosome on the 21st pair. This is a male with Downs syndrome (XY)

    4.

    Explain (in detail) the process of Gel Electrophoresis. Restriction enzymes are used to cut DNA into
    fragments. DNA is placed in an agarose gel, then fragments are separated based on size using electricity
    with smaller molecules moving faster and therefore farther than larger ones.

    5.

    Why is DNA fingerprinting used (List at least 3 examples)? Criminal investigation, paternity, maternity,
    personal identification

    Look at the DNA fingerprints below.


    a. Which suspect was at the crime scene?
    Suspect #2

    6.

    b. Which pair of parents DNA match the soldiers DNA?


    Parents C & D

    7.

    What are genetically modified organisms (GMO)? List 2 examples. GMOs have had their DNA altered
    by humans. For example, vegetables and fruits have been genetically engineered to grow with fewer
    pesticides, grow faster, and grow bigger. corn, glow fish, purple cauliflower

    8.

    Describe the Human Genome Project.


    The Human Genome Project took 13 years to complete. Headed by the United States government along
    with other countries such as Japan, China, Germany, scientists mapped out the entire human genomic
    sequence.

    9.

    Answer the questions about the following pedigree.


    a. How many children did the couple in Generation 1 have? 3
    b. What do the shaded shapes mean? Shaded shapes have the recessive trait
    c. Who are carriers of the trait in this Figure? Color the shapes half in for carriers. 2
    d. Explain what a carrier means. A carrier has the genes for the recessive trait but doesnt have the
    disease
    e. If the trait is sex-linked recessive, label all the genotypes.
