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

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
