Question 21

Short Answer

A diploid fungal cell is homozygous for a (TTG)5 trinucleotide repeat at a particular locus (see sequence below). During meiosis, an unequal crossover occurs at this locus between the second and third repeats on one homolog and between the third and fourth on the other. How many TTG repeats will each of the meiotic products have? (Assume that this species makes tetrads.)
