In peas, the allele Le produces tall plants and the allele le produces dwarf plants. The Le allele is dominant to le. If a tall plant is crossed with a dwarf, the offspring are distributed about equally between tall and dwarf plants. What are the genotypes of the parents?
In cats, the genotype AA produces tabby fur color; Aa is also a tabby, and aa is black. Another gene at a different locus is epistatic to the gene for fur color. When present in its dominant W form (WW or Ww), this gene blocks the formation of fur color and all the offspring are white; ww individuals develop normal fur color. What fur colors, and in what proportions, would you expect from the cross AaWw Aa Ww?
Consider a cross to investigate the pea pod texture trait, involving constricted or inflated pods. Mendel found that the traits behave according to a dominant/ recessive pattern in which inflated pods were dominant. If you performed this cross and obtained 650 inflated-pod plants in the F2 generation, approximately how many constricted-pod plants would you expect to have? 600 165 217 468
In sweet pea plants, an allele for purple flowers. (P) is dominanl when paired with a recessive allele for red flowers (p). An allele for Jang pollen grains (L) is dominant when paired with a recessive allele for round pollen grains (L). Bateson and Punnett crossed a plant having purple flowers and long pollen grains with one having white flowers and round pollen grains. All F1 offspring have purple flowers and long pollen grains. Among the F2 generation, the researchers observed the following phenotypes: 296 purple flowers/long pollen grains 19 purple /lower/ round pollen grains 27 red flowers/long pollen grains 85 red flowers/round pollen grains What is the best explanation for these results?
A true-breeding rabbit with agouti (mottled, grayish brown) fur crossed with a true-breeding rabbit with chinchilla (silver) fur produces all agouti offspring. A true-breeding chinchilla rabbit crossed with a true-breeding Himalayan rabbit (white fur with pigmented nose, ears, tail, and legs) produces all chinchilla offspring. A true-breeding Himalayan rabbit crossed with a true-breeding albino rabbit produces all Himalayan offspring. Explain the inheritance of the fur colors.
How would you perform a reciprocal cross for the characteristic of stem height in the garden pea?
The gene for flower position in pea plants exists as axial or terminal alleles. Given that axial is dominant to terminal, list all of the possible F1 and F2 genotypes and phenotypes from a cross involving parents that are homozygous for each trait. Express genotypes with conventional genetic abbreviations.
Which of the following situations does not follow the Law of Independent Assortment? A blond man and a brunette woman produce three offspring over time, all of who have blond hair A white cow crossed with a brown bull produces roan cattle Mating a hog with a sow produces six female piglets Men are more likely to experience hemophilia than women.
Another gene in Drosophila determines wing length. The dominant wild-type allele of this gene produces long wings; a recessive allele produces vestigial (short) wings. A female that is true- breeding for red eyes and long wings is mated with a male that has purple eyes and vestigial wings. F1 females are then crossed with purple-eyed, vestigial-winged males. From this second cross, a total of 600 offspring are obtained with the following combinations of traits: 252 with red eyes and long wings 276 with purple eyes and vestigial wings 42 with red eyes and vestigial wings 30 with purple eyes and long wings Are the genes linked, unlinked, or sex-linked? If they are linked, how many map units separate them on the chromosome?
The dominant C allele of a gene that controls color in corn produces kernels with color; plants homozygous for a recessive c allele of this gene have colorless or white kernels. What kinds of gametes, and in what proportions, would be produced by the plants in the following crosses? What seed color, and in what proportions, would be expected in the offspring of the crosses? a. CCCc b. Cccc c. CcCc
8. In guinea pigs, the allele for black fur (B) is dominant over the allele for white fur (b). Similarly, the allele for straight hair (H) is dominant over the allele for having rough hair (h). Pure breeding rough haired guinea pigs with black fur were crossed with pure breeding straight haired guinea pigs with white fur. a. State the genotype and the phenotype of the F1 individuals produced as a result of this cross.b. Two F1 offspring were mated together. Calculate the expected ratio of phenotypes in the F2 generation.c. Show the completed Punnett square below.
4. In dogs , curly hair is dominant to straight hair , and spotted coats are dominant to solid coats . If one dog has straight hair and is heterozygous for spotted coat is crossed with a dog that is heterozygous for both curly and spotted coat , determine the probability that the two dogs will have a puppy with curly hair and solid coat ?
