Human eye colors are found on a spectrum that ranges from completely pigmented (dark brown eyes) to a complete lack of pigment (light blue eyes).
Which type of non-Mendelian inheritance does human eye color exemplify and why?
Choose 1

A)Environmental effects; human eye color is greatly affected by diet

B)Incomplete dominance; a phenotype at the middle of the spectrum is due to two alleles producing
an intermediate phenotype

C)Polygenic inheritance; it involves multiple genes coding for a trait that falls within a wide spectrum

D)Polygenic inheritance: it involves one gene that is in control of multiple characteristics

Considering the yellow and green pea color phenotypes studied by gregor mendel: a. what is the biochemical function of the protein that is specified by the gene responsible for the pea color phenotype? (1 point) b. a null allele of a gene is an allele that does not specify (or encode) any of the biochemical function that the gene normally provides (in other words, either no protein at all or only non-functional protein is produced from it). of the two alleles, y and y, which is more likely to be a null allele? (1 point) c. in terms of the underlying biochemistry, why is the y allele dominant to the y allele? (2 points) d. why are peas that are yy homozygotes green? (1 point) e. the amount of protein produced from a gene is roughly proportional to the number of functional copies of the gene carried by a cell or individual. what do the phenotypes of yy homozygotes, yy heterozygotes, and yy homozygotes tell us about the amount of sgr enzyme needed to produce a yellow color? explain your reasoning.
