In Drosophila, dosage compensation is established by increasing transcription of X-linked genes in males. What type of epigenetic regulation would you examine between males and females in Drosophila? 1 Methylation of DNA 2 Methylation of histone tails 3 Acetylation of histone tails 4 All of the above
Added by Lauren M.
Step 1
This process is achieved through epigenetic regulation, which involves modifications to DNA and histone proteins that affect gene expression without altering the DNA sequence itself. Show more…

1. transcription genes that are carried on the X chromosome 2. translation converting the genetic code into the language of proteins 3. monohybrid cross the breeding of two organisms which differ in a single trait 4. incomplete dominance when genes are neither dominant nor recessive and display a blending of traits in the phenotype 5. sex-linked genes the transfer of genetic code from DNA to an RNA molecule

6. You have conducted exhaustive experiments studying the inheritance of four genes (A, B, C, and D) that are all on chromosome 3 in Drosophila melanogaster. You have recorded the following frequencies of recombination in offspring for each of the genes: Gene pair: Frequency of Recombination: a b 20 a c 28 a d 5 b c 10 b d 15 c d 24 1. What is the order of the genes on the chromosome? 2. Why is the distance between genes a and c as shown in the data?
