Exercise 12
FOCUS ON INFORMATION
In sexually reproducing species, each individual begins life with DNA inherited from both parent organisms. In a short essay (100-150 words), apply this idea to what occurs when organisms of two species that have homologous chromosomes mate and produce (F 1 ) hybrid offspring. What percentage of the DNA in the F 1 hybrids' chromosomes comes from each parent species As the hybrids mate and produce F 2 and later-generation hybrid offspring, describe how recombination and natural selection may affect whether the DNA in hybrid chromosomes is derived from one parent species or the other.
