Solve the given Problems: A. The man is heterozygous type B (BO) and the partner is homozygous type A (AA). Do the cross to show how it happens and answer the following: What are the different blood types and the corresponding genotypes of their kids? What is the chance or the probability to have a blood type B child? How about the chance to have a type AB child? If the couple plans to have 3 kids, how many combinations of blood types will be true for their kids? B. The two rabbits with these corresponding genotypes were mated; CCch X CCh . Do the cross and answer the following questions. How many phenotypes will there be for the offspring? How about the genotypes? What is the percentage of agouti offspring to come out? What is/are the other phenotype/s of the offspring besides agouti?
Answer with reason: 3) The nurse is explaining the inheritance of Huntington disease (autosomal dominant) to a newly diagnosed patient whose partner does not have the gene mutation. Which statement should the nurse make regarding family planning? a. There is a 100% chance with each pregnancy that the child will inherit the gene for Huntington disease. c. There is a 50% chance with each pregnancy that the child will inherit the gene for Huntington disease b. There is a 25% chance with each pregnancy that the child will inherit the gene for Huntington disease d. There is a 0% chance with each pregnancy that the child will inherit the gene for Huntington disease.
PROBLEM 1. In a certain plant, yellow fruit, Y, is dominant to white fruit, y. A heterozygous plant with yellow fruit is crossed with a plant with white fruit. Determine the probable genotypic and phenotypic ratios resulting from this cross. Determine the probable genotypic and phenotypic ratios expected from crossing two heterozygous plants of Problem 1.

Multiple choices: Question: Handedness (whether you are right or left-handed) shows a 79% concordance in monozygotic twins and a 77% concordance in dizygotic twins. Using this information, do you expect handedness to have a large genetic influence? a. No, although the concordance numbers are high, they are similar between MZ and DZ twins b. No, concordance is not 100%
I. OBJECTIVES At the end of the activity, the students are able to: A observe the separation and independent assortment of alleles: B. demonstrate the inheritance of dominant and recessive traits, codominance. and incomplete dominance: and C. construct a model of a dragon based on the characteristics inherited from the parent dragons. II. MATERIALS Writing materials 2 Five-peso coins 2 One-peso coins 2 Twenty-peso coins Ill. PROCEDURE I. In this activity. you and a partner will work together to produce o baby dragon from the random mixing of genetic traits. Each student will be a surrogate dragon parent. Surrogate dragon parent partners must be of the opposite sex. therefore the female has X/X chromosomes white the male has X/Y chromosomes. You can ask your parent. sibling. or relative to work with you Or you Can work with your Classmate. 2. Each partner must have three different coins -- one of each color of autosome (green and yellow autosomes). and one sex chromosome coin_ You can…
Problem 5. The eye color of fruit flies is an X-linked trait. The red eye color is dominant and the white eye color is recessive. If a white-eyed male fly mates with a heterozygous red-eyed female fly, what will be the genotypes and phenotypes of their offspring? a) Construct a Punnett Square - List gametes in the area with the dashed line and the genotypes of the offspring in the area with the sold line. b) Genotypes of Offspring- c) Phenotypes of Offspring-
Q1: Which of the children in this Punnett square represents Zoe? What is her genotype? Q2: If Zoe’s parents had another child, what is the probability that the child would have cystic ﬁbrosis? That the child would be a CF carrier? Q3: If Zoe is able to have a child of her own someday, and the other parent is not a carrier of cystic ﬁbrosis (he would likely be tested before they chose to have children), what is the probability that the child would have cystic ﬁbrosis? That the child would be a carrier?

Draw the gametes produced by both parents in cross 1.6. Draw the chromosome 4 constitution of the progeny ofcross 1.7. Is it surprising that the progeny of cross 1 are wild-typephenotype? What does this outcome tell you?8. Draw the chromosome 4 constitution of the male testerused in cross 2 and the gametes that he can produce.9.
