In cats, the allele (B) produces black color but (b) producesyellow color. These alleles are co‐dominant to each other. Aheterozygote produces a tortoise‐shell color. The alleles (B)and (b) are sex‐linked as well. Cross a tortoise‐shell femalewith a yellow male. What percent of their offspring will be yellow? What percent of their offspring will be black? What percent of their offspring will be tortoise shell?
In sheep, the formation of horns is a sex-influenced trait; the allelethat results in horns is dominant in males and recessive in females.Females must be homozygous for the horned allele to have horns.A horned ram was crossed to a polled (unhorned) ewe, and the firstoffspring they produced was a horned ewe. What are the genotypesof the parents?
In cattle, hair color is controlled by incomplete dominance. Red results from homozygous dominant alleles (RR), roan from heterozygous alleles (Rr), and white from homozygous recessive alleles (rr). What are the predicted phenotypes and their frequencies of thefollowing crosses: a. white cow and a red bullb. a roan cow and a red bullc. a roan cow and a roan bull
In sheep, the formation of horns is a sex-influenced trait; the allelethat results in horns is dominant in males and recessive in females.Females must be homozygous for the horned allele to have horns. Ahorned ram was crossed to a polled (unhorned) ewe, and the firstoffspring was a horned ewe. What are the genotypes of the parents?
In cats, white patches are caused by the dominant allele P, while pp individuals are solid-colored. Short hair is caused by a dominant allele S, while ss cats have long hair. A long-haired cat with patches whose mother was solid-colored and short-haired mates with a short-haired, solid-colored cat whose mother was long-haired and solid-colored. What kinds of kittens can arise from this mating, and in what proportions? Show your solution. Explain your answers.
In cats, curled ears result from an allele (Cu) that is dominant over an allele (cu) for normal ears. Black color results from an independently assorting allele (G) that is dominant over an allele for gray (g). A gray cat homozygous for curled ears is mated with a homozygous black cat with normal ears. All the F1 cats are black and have curled ears. Q. If two of the F1 cats mate, what phenotypes and proportions are expected in the F2?
. In tigers, a recessive allele of a particular gene causes both anabsence of fur pigmentation (a white tiger) and a cross-eyed condition. If two phenotypically normal tigers that are heterozygousat this locus are mated, what percentage of their offspring will becross-eyed? What percentage of cross-eyed tigers will be white?
In cats, the allele for black fur (B) is dominant over the allele for brown fur (b). A heterozygous female cat mated with a homozygous recessive male cat.a. What is the genotype of the female cat?b. What is the phenotype of the female cat?e. Draw a Punnett square to show what kinds of kittens these two cats could make. What fraction of the kittens would you expect to have each genotype?
In rabbits, black hair is dependent on a dominant allele B, and brown upon arecessive allele b. Short-hair is due to dominant allele S and long hair to arecessive allele s. If a true-breeding black short haired male is mated with abrown, long-haired female, what will their offspring look like? What will be the genotypes of the offspring?
3. Codominance is when two dominant alleles of contrastingpair fully expressed at the same time in heterozygousindividual. Which of the following situation is an example ofcodominance?A. Jo mated the red bull with the white cow to produce a roan cow.B. Melissa traces her blood type by crossing the blood type of herparents.C. James passed a genetic disorder hypertrichosis pinnae aurisor hairy ear to his son.D. Tess crosses the red carnation flower plant with white flowercarnation plant to produce a pink flower plant.
More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment Determine the possible genotypes of the following parents by analyzing the phenotypes of their children. In this case, we will assume that brown eyes (B) is dominant to blue (b) and that right-handedness (R) is dominant to left-handedness (r). a. Parents: brown eyes, right-handed brown eyes, right-handed Offspring: 3/4 brown eyes, right-handed 1/4 blue eyes, right-handed b. Parents: brown eyes, right-handed blue eyes, right-handed Offspring: 6/16 blue eyes, right-handed 2/16 blue eyes, left-handed 6/16 brown eyes, right-handed 2/16 brown eyes, left-handed c. Parents: brown eyes, right-handed blue eyes, left-handed Offspring: 1/4 brown eyes, right-handed 1/4 brown eyes, left-handed 1/4 blue eyes, right-handed 1/4 blue eyes, left-handed
A sheep breeder has a sheep that is large (L) with soft wool (S). The breeder conducts a testcross to determine whether the sheep is homozygous or heterozygous for each of these dominant traits. If 1/4 of the offspring of the testcross are large with soft wool, what is the genotype of the breeder's sheep?
