Some recessive alleles have such a detrimental effect that they are lethal when present in both chromosomes of a pair. Homozygous recessives cannot survive and die at some point during embryonic development. Suppose that the allele r is lethal in the homozygous rr condition. What genotypic ratios would you expect among the living offspring of the following crosses? a. RRRr b. RrRr
A testcross is a way to determine ________. a. phenotype b. genotype c. dominance
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
The following pedigree shows the pattern of inheritance of red green color blindness in a family. Females are shown as circles and males as squares; the squares or circles of individuals affected by the trait are filled in red. What is the chance that a son of the third-generation female indicated by the arrow will be color-blind if the father is a normal man? If the father is color-blind?
The phenotype of individuals heterozygous for ________ alleles comprises both homozygous phenotypes. a. epistatic b. codominant c. pleiotropic d. hybrid
Several alleles affect traits of roses, such as plant form and bud shape. Alleles of one gene govern whether a plant will be a climber (dominant) or shrubby (recessive). All F1 offspring from a cross between a true-breeding climber and a shrubby plant are climbers. If an F1 plant is crossed with a shrubby plant, about 50 percent of the offspring will be shrubby; 50 percent will be climbers. Using symbols A and a for the dominant and recessive alleles, make a Punnett- square diagram of the expected genotypes and phenotypes the cross between the F1 offspring and the shrubby plant.
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?

Figure 12.16 In pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant to white flowers (p) and yellow peas (Y) are dominant to green peas (y). What are the possible genotypes and phenotypes for a cross between PpYY and ppYy pea plants? How many squares do you need to do a Punnett square analysis of this cross?
Two pairs of traits are segregating in a cross. Two parents produce 156 progeny that fall into 4 phenotypes. The numbers of offspring in the 4 phenotypes are 89, 31, 28, and 8. What are the genotypes of the two parents?
Red-flowering snapdragons are homozygous for allele RI. White-flowing snapdragons are homozygous for a different allele (R2). Heterozygous plants (R1 R2) bear pink flowers.
