FILE 2–INHERITANCE OF TWO OR MORE INDEPENDENT GENES 1. Draw a scheme of meiosis process of a diploid cell with n=2. One chromosome carries gene A, the other carries gene B. The analyzed individual is heterozygous for both genes. Represent the two possible relative positions of the chromosomes in metaphase I. A Gametocyte a b B Prophase I Metaphase I oppure Metaphase II Gametes 2. Now use the branch diagram to determine type and frequency of the gametes produced by the same cell. Gene A (frequency) Gene B (frequency) Gametes (frequency)
