    Study Notes

    Chromosomal Maps

    • A chromosomal map can show the positions of genes on a chromosome.

    Consequences of Nucleotide Deletion

    • Deletion of a single nucleotide can result in a frameshift mutation.

    Pattern Baldness: Genotypes and Phenotypes

    • The genotype BB results in baldness in both females and males.
    • The genotype Bb results in baldness in males but not in females.
    • The genotype bb results in no baldness in both females and males.

    Sex-Influenced Traits

    • Pattern baldness is an example of a sex-influenced trait, meaning that the expression of the Bb genotype differs between males and females.
