1 The allele for tall pea plants is dominant over the allele for short pea plants. If two heterozygous plants are crossed, what will the genotypic and phenotypic ratios be? 2 Purple flowers are dominant over white flowers, and green pods are dominant over yellow pods in pea plants. What would the probability be of producing a pea plant with white flowers and yellow pods from parent plants that are heterozygous for each trait? 3 Red eyes are dominant on fruit flies but an x-linked recessive allele will produce white-eyed flies. If a pure breeding red-eyed female mates with a white-eyed male, what is the probability of white eyes in the F1 generation?

1. A woman who is heterozygous for the brown eye and blue eye alleles marries a man with blue eyes. What are the genotypes and phenotypes of the children? a) What is the genotypic ratio of the above cross (Write number next to genotype)? ___________________________________________________________________ b) What is the phenotypic ratio of the above cross?

1.1 Farmer Brown has a breed of white-feathered chickens that is homozygous for the dominant allele A which produces coloured feathers. These chickens are also homozygous for the dominant allele B for another independently assorting gene which inhibits colouration of the feathers. Farmer MacDonald has a different breed of white chickens that are homozygous recessive for both the A/a and B/b genes. One of farmer Brown’s hens (AABB) is crossed with one of farmer MacDonald’s roosters (aabb) to generate the F1 generation. What are the expected F2 phenotypes and proportions from the crossing the F1 offspring? 1.2 A certain animal can have brown, red, black or gray fur. Assume that fur colour is controlled by a single gene with multiple alleles in a dominance series where black (B1) > brown (B2) > red (B3) > gray (B4). Give the genotypes of two phenotypically different heterozygotes that when crossed produce offspring with the phenotypic ratio of 1 black : 1 brown.

Professor John decided to breed bunnies during stay-at-home because why not. She performed the following cross:Parents:brown fur, gray nose x white fur, gray noseOffspring:3/8 white fur, gray nose1/8 white fur, white nose3/8 brown fur, gray nose 1/8 brown fur, white noseBased on the phenotypes of the offspring, what are the genotypes of the parents? Make sure you define your genotypes (ie B is brown fur, b is white fur)
The allele for hitchhiker’s thumb (h) is recessive to straight thumb (H). If a man and his wife are both homozygous recessive, will any of their offspring potentially have hitchhikers thumb? 1.What genotype(s) must the offspring have in order to have the phenotypic trait of hitchhiker’s thumb? 2. Do a cross to determine all potential hitchhiker’s thumb genotypes and phenotypes for the offspring of this man and woman. Is it possible for any offspring of the F1 generation to have hitchhiker’s thumb?
1,Show the cross between two people with Type AB blood. What is the genotypic and phenotypic outcome of such a cross? 2. Incomplete dominance = If a Red (RR) and White flower (rr) were crossbred, resulting in 100% Rr, what phenotype(s) would been seen according to the rules of IN-complete dominance? 3. Two parents think their baby was switched at the hospital. Its 1968, so DNA fingerprinting technology does not exist yet. The mother has blood type “O,” the father has blood type “AB,” and the baby has blood type “B.” Mother’s genotype: _______ Father’s genotype: _______ Baby’s genotype: ______ or _______ Was the baby switched? ____________________________________________________
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?
1. What is the difference between genotype and phenotype? 2. A black guinea pig is mated to a white guinea pig, and they produce 12 black offspring. Then, the same white guinea pig is mated to a different black guinea pig, and they produce 7 black and 5 white offspring. What is the best explanation for the difference between these two matings? In your answer, you must include the genotypes for the parents and offspring of each cross. 3. In 1981, a stray black cat with unusual curled-back ears was adopted by a family in California. Suppose you were the person who owned the first “curl” cat, and wanted to develop it into its own breed. How would you determine whether the allele for curled ears is dominant or recessive? Why does it make a difference for breeders whether an allele for a trait is dominant or recessive?
1. If a purebred pea plant with purple flowers was crossed with a purebred pea plant with white flowers, all of the offspring's flowers ended up being purple. In this instancethe WHITE flower trait is considered to be what?
