Worksheet 3
Monohybrid Crosses
1. You have fly stocks with normal wings (dominant) or short wings (recessive). You
find a fly buzzing around your lab and want to know if this fly with normal wings is
pure-breeding or heterozygous for the wing trait.
a. What cross would you set to determine the genotype? Test cross Fly with normal
wings crossed with a fly with short wings.
b. What results would you expect from the cross?
ww x ww= Ww (normal wing trait)
2. In squash, the allele for white color (W) is dominant over the allele for yellow color
(w). For each of the crosses below, list the following:
a) Genotype of the gametes produced by each parent
b) Expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the offspring
Cross 1: WW X ww
Cross 2: Ww X ww
Cross 3: Ww X Ww
3. Red fruit alleles are dominant over yellow alleles. Red homozygous tomato is
crossed with yellow homozygous tomato.
a. Determine the phenotypes and genotypes of the F1.
b. Determine the phenotypes and genotypes of the F2.
c. Suppose an F1 tomato is back crossed to a red tomato. Determine the phenotypes
and genotypes of the offspring.
d. Suppose an F1 tomato is back crossed to a yellow tomato. Determine the
phenotypes and genotypes of the offspring.
4. In humans, brown eye alleles are dominant over blue eye alleles. If a brown-eyed
man marries a blue-eyed woman and they have ten children, all brown-eyed, can you
be certain that the man is homozygous? If the eleventh child has brown eyes, what
will that show about the father's genotype?
Father's genotype is dominant
Dihybrid Crosses
In dogs, an allele for yellow fur color (A) is dominant over the allele for red fur (a). An
allele of another independent gene produces long tail (B) is dominant over the allele
for short tail (b).
For each of the crosses below, list the following:
1. Genotype of the gametes produced by each parent
2. Expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the offspring
3. Whether either parent is true breeding
Cross 1:Aa bb X aa bb
Cross 2:AA Bb X Aa BB
Cross 3:aa Bb X AA Bb

Expert Solution
Step 1

An allele is one of two,or more ,forms of a given gene variant .Some genes have a variety of different forms,which are located at the same position, or genetic locus, on a chromosome.Genotypes are described as homozygous if there are two identical alleles at a particular locus and as heterozygous if the two alleles differ.
