SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY The diagram in question 6 represents just a few of the chromosomes of a meiotic cell in a certain person. A previous study has shown that the freckles gene is located at the locus marked F, and the hair-color gene is located at the locus marked H, both on the long chromosome. The individual from whom this cell was taken has inherited different alleles for each gene (freckles and black hair from one parent, and no freckles and blond hair from the other). Predict allele combinations in the gametes resulting from this meiotic event. (It will help if you draw out the rest of meiosis, labeling alleles by name.) List other possible combinations of these alleles in this individuals gametes.

SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY The diagram in question 6 represents just a few of the chromosomes of a meiotic cell in a certain person. A previous study has shown that the freckles gene is located at the locus marked F, and the hair-color gene is located at the locus marked H, both on the long chromosome. The individual from whom this cell was taken has inherited different alleles for each gene (freckles and black hair from one parent, and no freckles and blond hair from the other). Predict allele combinations in the gametes resulting from this meiotic event. (It will help if you draw out the rest of meiosis, labeling alleles by name.) List other possible combinations of these alleles in this individuals gametes.
ANSWER:From this meiotic event, it is likely that one gamete would contain the alleles for freckles (f) and black hair (H) an
