A carrier female for an X-linked recessive condition (XHXh) and an unaffected male (XHY) have children. Which prediction best follows from chromosome segregation?

A student states that an unaffected male can carry an X-linked recessive allele without expressing it. Which evaluation is most accurate?

Which laboratory design would provide the strongest evidence for determining whether a dominant-phenotype organism is homozygous or heterozygous?

During a bead-model meiosis activity, each gamete receives only one allele from a heterozygous parent. Which statement best explains why this observation supports Mendel’s Law of Segregation?

White eyes in fruit flies are X-linked recessive. A white-eyed male (XrY) is crossed with a homozygous red-eyed female (XRXR). Which outcome is predicted?

In fruit flies, white eyes are X-linked recessive. A white-eyed female (XrXr) is crossed with a red-eyed male (XRY). Which result would most strongly distinguish this cross from an autosomal recessive cross?

Problem 1 (35 pts) The L-shaped bar shown below is supported by a thrust bearing at A and rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface at B.  The force F has magnitude 4 kN and is in the negative y-direction.  The distance b is equal to 0.15 m. a.) Carefully draw a free body diagram of the bar. Make it clear what reactions are present at points A and B. b.) Determine the moment vector produced by force F about point A.  Moment Vector = ( [x-component] i + [y-component] j + [z-component] k) kN-m

Problem 2 (35 pts) The bar ABC is pinned to the wall at location A.  At point C a frictionless pulley is connected.   The tension in the cable is T = 100 lb.  The bar has a force of F applied at location B.  A torsional spring is installed at location A; the torsional spring has been rotated 60 degrees clockwise from its unloaded state (i.e., the torsional spring is unloaded when the bar ABC is vertical).  The stiffness of the torsional spring is 20 lb-in/degree. a.) Draw a free body diagram of bar ABC. b.) What is the magnitude of the moment that the torsional spring exerts on the bar?  [moment] lb-in What direction is the moment (clockwise or counterclockwise)? [direction]

c.) Identify any zero force members in the truss. d.) Determine the tensile force in member CD. Clearly show any free body diagram(s) that support your calculations. Tensile force in CD:  [CD] lb
