Trisomy 18 is one of the most common trisomies observed in human populations. You prepare DNA samples from two unrelated infants, both with trisomy 18, and from their parents. You then type the infants and their parents for four SSRs distributed along chromosome 18:

In the Meselson-Stahl DNA replication experiment, if the cells were first grown for many generations in 15N containing media, and then switched to 14N containing media, what percent of the DNA had 1 light strand and 1 heavy strand after 2 generations of growth in 15N growth media?

Frederick Griffith accidentally discovered transformation when attempting to develop a vaccine for pneumonia. He injected mice with samples from S-strain (virulent) and/or R-strain (nonvirulent) pneumococci bacteria (Streptococcus pneumoniae). Which of the following results is NOT consistent with Griffith's experiments?
