Cross a heterozygous black guinea pig with a homozygous black guinea pig.b. Cross a heterozygous black guinea pig with a white one.c. Cross two heterozygous guinea pigs.2. In garden peas, round seeds (R) are dominant over wrinkled seeds (r). Crosstwo heterozygous plants. Give the genotypic and phenotypic ratios.3. In humans, normal skin pigmentation is the result of the action of adominant gene (A), which allows pigmentation to develop. All individualswho are homozygous for the recessive allele (a) are unable to produce anenzyme needed for production of the melanin pigment and are thereforereferred to as albino. Two normal parents produce an albino child. What arethe chances that the next child will be an albino?4. A normally pigmented woman whose father was an albino marries an albinoman whose parents were normal. They have three children, two normal andone albino. Give the genotypes for each person listed.5. Describe the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring expected from thefollowing parents. (A represents the dominant gene for normal pigmentation,and a represents its recessive allele.a. AA and Aab. Aa and aac. Aa and Aa

In chickens, feathered legs are produced by a dominant allele F. Another allele f of the same gene produces featherless legs. The dominant allele P of a gene at a different locus produces pea combs; a recessive allele p of this gene causes single combs. A breeder makes the following crosses with birds 1, 2, 3, and 4; all parents have both feathered legs and pea combs: Cross Offspring 12 All feathered, pea comb 13 3/4 feathered; 1/4 featherless, all pea comb 14 9/16 feathered, pea comb; 3/16 featherless, pea comb 3/16 feathered, single comb; 1/16 featherless, single comb What are the genotypes of the four birds?

D) Genetics Problem show the table and word In certain breeds of chickens, the allele "B" is responsible for black feathers whereas the contrasting allele "b" produces feathers that are white. Another r pair of alleles influences the shape of the feathers. "F" produces straight feathers whereas the contrasting gene for "f results in the frizzled condition. Give the genotypic and phenotypic ratios to be expected from the following cross: white, frizzled hen with a heterozygous black, homozygous straight rooster. Genotypic Ratio: Phenotypic Ratio:
Practice Pedigree Problem help. I am confused so please show. Label Phenotypes and genotypes as you go about the Pedigree (and whatever else might be required)! Thank you again for your help, these questions confuse me). Hair or fur length in cats is controlled by a single, autosomal gene; the short hair-allele is dominant to the allele for long hair. Hair color is produced by a different gene which is located on the X chromosome. One allele for this sex-linked gene produces yellow, while an alternate allele produces black fur color; individuals which are heterozygous for these alleles are calico or tortiseshell in color. a). If a long-haired, black male is mated with a calico female homozygous for short hair, what kind of kittens will be produced in the F1generation? Give both genotypes and phenotypes; express the genotypes both symbolically and in words.

10.You are breeding different varieties of roses in your garden. When you cross a true-breeding yellow "Texas Beauty" rose with a true-breeding "Ruby" red rose, you get all red roses. But when you cross a "Texas Beauty" yellow with the yellow variety "Jealousy," you get a 9:7 ratio of red to yellow flowers! What can you conclude from these results? The red allele is dominant to the yellow allele. There is a mutation in the gene for yellow pigment in the "Jealousy" variety. C. There are epistatic interactions between at least two genes for rose pigment. D. There is no recessive allele for the red pigment gene.
