The Bar eye mutation is a genetic alteration found in Drosophila melanogaster (fruit flies) that affects the shape and size of the eye. Typically, it causes the fly's eyes to appear narrower and more elongated, resembling a bar shape rather than the usual round form. This mutation is caused by a change in the dosage of the gene responsible for eye development, specifically affecting the expression of the eyeless gene. Bar eye mutations serve as a classic example in genetics, illustrating principles of inheritance and gene function.
What else can I help you with?
Is the white eye mutation in Drosophila was shown to be sex-linked and caused by a gene residing on chromosome x?
Yes, the white eye mutation in Drosophila is indeed sex-linked, as it is located on the X chromosome. This mutation is caused by a defect in the gene that codes for eye color, resulting in white eyes instead of the typical red color found in wild-type flies.
Mutation is any change in a gene or chromosome?

What is random errors when DNA is copied called?
It's called a mutation.
A change in a single nucleotide in DNA-?

A mutation occurs in an eye cell of a fully grown monkey what will most likely happen to the monkey?
This depends on what kind of mutation occurs. You don't say what the mutation/result of the mutation is, so who knows what will happen to the monkey
What will most likely happen to a monkey if mutation occurs in an eye cell?
If a mutation occurs in a monkey's eye cell, it may result in changes to the structure or function of the eye. Depending on the nature of the mutation, it could lead to abnormalities in vision, such as impaired sight or color blindness. In some cases, mutations may increase the risk of developing eye diseases or conditions.
A point mutation occurs in a sex cell of an adult chimpanzee. The mutation is located on a gene responsible for the development of the eye. Which describes the most likely effect of this mutation?
The point mutation may lead to a change in the protein coded by the gene, potentially affecting eye development in the offspring of the chimpanzee. Depending on the specific nature of the mutation, it could result in a range of eye-related conditions, from minor changes to more significant developmental abnormalities.
Is any eye color other than brown a mutation?
yes man.
A point mutation occurs in a sex cell of an adult chimpanzee the mutation is located on a gene responsible for the development of the eye what best describes the most likely effect of this mutation?
The offspring will have abnormal eyes--APEX
What is a example of a neutral mutation?
A neutral mutation would be something such as having one green eye and one blue eye. It doesn't hinder you and it doesn't give you an advantage.
Is the white eye mutation in Drosophila was shown to be sex-linked and caused by a gene residing on chromosome x?
Yes, the white eye mutation in Drosophila is indeed sex-linked, as it is located on the X chromosome. This mutation is caused by a defect in the gene that codes for eye color, resulting in white eyes instead of the typical red color found in wild-type flies.

Potentially, any genetic mutation can be passed on...... i think to tell you the truth WOT THE HELLL U ON ABOUT
