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

2. In a strain of chickens, there are birds with white, black, or blue feathers. In crosses between ten white hens and ten blue roosters, there are 100 offspring: 24 hens with blue feathers, 26 roosters with blue feathers, 23 hens with white feathers, 27 roosters with white feathers. When crossing blue hens and white roosters, there are 100 offspring: 25 hens with blue feathers, 25 roosters with blue feathers, 26 hens with white feathers, 24 roosters with white feathers. A. Using allele symbols, create a plausible explanation for these traits. Why is this trait not sex-linked? When crossing ten black roosters and ten white hens, you observe 100 offspring: 51 hens with blue feathers, 49 roosters with blue feathers. When crossing white roosters and black hens, you observe 100 offspring: 50 hens with blue feathers, 50 roosters with blue feathers B. Use allele symbols to create a plausible explanation for these traits. C. Using evidence of all crosses, what would you predict if you…

1. In a particular bird species, the tips of the feathers are tinged with blue, white, or silver. The BB genotype calls for blue-tipped feathers. The WW genotype calls for white-tipped feathers. The BW genotype calls for an intermediate with silver-tipped feathers. A mating occurs between a blue-tipped bird and a white-tipped bird. What types of offspring would be expected? Give the genotypes and phenotypes of the possible offspring and the probability of each. 2. The bird species described in question 5 has an ornamental plumage on its head. The plumage feathers are either flexible or stiff. The allele for flexible plumage is dominant over the allele for stiff plumage. A male who is heterozygous for plumage and has silver-tipped wings mates with a female who has stiff plumage with silver-tipped wings. What types of offspring would be expected from this cross? Give the probability of each. 3. In some cats, the gene for tail length shows incomplete dominance. When a cat with a…
