GENETIC DISORDERS AND GENETIC ENGINEERING REVIEW

GENETIC DISORDERS:
1.  What is a karyotype and what can it show you?  What can’t it show?


2.  How many chromosomes are there in a normal karyotype?  _____
     How many of these are the sex chromosomes? ______

3.  Men’s sex chromosomes are ______
     Women’s sex chromosomes are _______
     Eggs carry ______
     Sperm  carry  ____ or ____

4.  Sex-linked genes are on which chromosome?  (ie. Pair #7? Pair # 21?)

5.   Which genetic disease is caused by a DOMINANT allele?

6.  What is the (genetic) cause of sickle cell anemia? 

7.  What are the symptoms of CF?

8.  What is non-disjuntion?


GENETIC ENGINEERING:
9.  Define hybridization.

10.  Define inbreeding

11.  What natural phenomenon is crucial for farmers to be able to selectively breed organisms?

12. What is the advantage of putting makers like “antibacterial resistance” into bacterial DNA?

13.  Define genetic engineering.

14.  Define recombinant DNA.

15.  If a restriction enzyme cuts and leaves a sticky end of TTAA, what other sticky end would match up with that?

16.  Know the diagram form how bacteria can be used to make human proteins.  Why is this advantageous?

17.  What is Dolly, and how was she made?

18.  What are the advantages to GM crops?

19.  What is the Genetic Information Non-discrimination Act?
