2. Consider genes that have 2 alleles each. Gene 1 has allele "E" and "e", where E is dominant to e. Gene 2 has alleles "F" and "f", where F is dominant to f. We do not know if the genes are linked. The cross EEFF x eeff is made, and the F. is then test-crossed with the recessive parent. Note the genotypes are written without slashes and semicolon because we do not know if the genes are on the same chromosomes or different. i. What is the genotype of the F1 individual used in the test cross? (Simply follow how the genes are written above.) ii. Below are the progeny of phenotypes and proportions from the F1 test-cross. What are the full progeny genotypes? (Simply follow how the genes are written above) Which progeny genotypes are the result of inheriting a Parental (P) or Recombinant (R) combination of alleles? (Simply put P for parental and R for recombinant; use capital letters) Phenotype EF Frequency 2/6 Cross-Over Type Genotype Ef 1/6 e F 1/6 ef 2/6 ii. Do the results above suggest the two genes are linked? Indicate whether the genes are unlinked (UN), completely linked (CL), or incompletely linked (IL)? Choose answer

1) By convention, the recessive trait will determine the abbreviation used to track crosses if it is a mutant condition, since it stands out in contrast to the rest of the population. For example, if pea pods are typically green in color, a mutant condition might result in yellow pea pods; therefore, the lowercase letter ‘y’ would be used to depict the mutant state, yellow, while uppercase ‘Y’ would depict the wildtype (wt) condition, green. Remember that the mutant condition is not necessarily always recessive. 1 A) . If green is dominant wt (Y) and yellow is a recessive mutant condition (y), depict a Yy father mated with a YY mother in the Punnett. 1B) Considering the dominant allele, what colors are the parents in the cross above? Yy = _____________________ YY = _____________________ 1C) What colors are the offspring in the cross above? 1D) What is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring? 1E) What is the genotypic ratio of the offspring? (Remember, the genotypic ratio is based…
1. Construct a pedigree chart of the trait traced in the situation below.2. The pedigree chart must be constructed with the names and genotypes at the bottom of every individual in the chart.If it is autosomal: Always use the first letter of the dominant trait to represent the dominant allele. For example, if the dominant trait is red, so the allele R-red, while r-yellow. For example, if the person is homozygous dominant for curly hair, we write CC as his genotype. If sex-linked, do not forget to write the parents’ chromosomes (XX-female, XY-male), with their corresponding superscripts (dominant or recessive). The superscript must be based on the first letter of the disorder. For example, the mother is a carrier of hemophilia (which is x-linked recessive), so we write XHXh. If the father has hemophilia, we write XhY. Put the pedigree chart using code properly. The situation is given below: Trait: NeurofibromatosisThe dominant form is neurofibromatosis, caused by the production of…

1. In guinea pigs, two different genes affect the coat. One gene codes for coat color and there are 2 codominant alleles C1=Brown and C2=White. The heterozygous form is tan colored. The second gene codes for presence of hair with H=hairy (dominant) and h=hairless (recessive). If we didn't know the genotypes of the parents, but mom is hairless and dad is tan haired, and the babies produced included brown, tan, white, and hairless, can you guess the genotypes of the parents? Show your work below (explain how you came up with the answers)

A pea plant heterozygous for height and seed color (TtYy) is crossed with a pea plant heterozygous for height but homozygous recessive for seed color (Ttyy). If 80 offspring are produced, how many are expected to be tall and have yellow seeds? 3. What is the chromosome theory of inheritance? How does this theory explain Mendel's results? 4. A cross between two organisms heterozygous for two different genes (AaBb) results in a 9:3:3:1 phenotype ratio among the offspring. Is the offspring's genotype ratio the same? Explain your answer.…

2.In dogs, there is a hereditary deafness caused by a recessive allele, d. A kennel owner has a male dog that she wants to use for breeding purposes if possible. The dog can hear, but the owner is unsure of the genotype. She does a testcross (crosses it to a homozygous recessive dog), and two of the five offspring are deaf. This means that the male dog A.has the genotype DD B.has the genotype Dd C.is still of unknown genotype since there were offspring of both deaf and hearing phenotypes. D.has the genotype dd
