Question 1

The enhancers that are present near a gene are present in every cell in an organism, yet these enhancers can have tissue-specific effects on gene expression.  Explain how enhancers could have tissue-specific effects on gene expression.

Question 2

The gene encoding coat color is X-linked, and male cats have a single copy of the X chromosome. They can therefore express either the O or o allele, resulting in orange or black coat, respectively. Female cats, on the other hand, have two copies of the X chromosome. Thus, they can be heterozygous and express either orange or black in a pattern called tortoiseshell. Using this information, list the possible genotypes for these individuals:
 orange male
orange female
black male
black female
tortoiseshell
