7. In garden peas, long stems are dominant to short stems, and yellow seeds are dominant to green seeds. 100 long/yellow pea plants, all of which had one short/green parent, are interbred (bred to each other). 1600 progeny result. Please answer the following questions about this progeny. a. Assuming that these two genes are unlinked, about how many long/green pea plants would you expect to find among the offspring? b. What ratio of yellow to green seed color would you expect among the offspring? c. What would you expect the overall phenotypic ratio among the 1600 offspring to be (taking into consideration both traits)?

Imagine that you are performing a cross involving seed texture in garden pea plants. You cross true-breeding round and wrinkled parents to obtain F1 offspring. Which of the following experimental results in terms of numbers of plants are closest to what you expect in the F2 progeny? a. 8lOroundseeds b. 8lOwrinkledseeds c. 405:395 round seeds:wrinkled seeds d. 610:190 round seeds:wrinkled seeds
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.
1. Mendel obtained his initial pea plant varieties from local breeders who were developing new varieties that might be useful or interesting. To generate these new varieties, breeders formed hybrids between existing varieties of different phenotypic characteristics by cross pollination, using techniques they doubtless taught to Mendel. After producing a hybrid, they allowed several generations of self-pollination, as happens naturally if the flowers are not disturbed. a. How many generations would it take for a breeder to have produced new pure-breeding varieties using this approach? iv. What is the probability that an individual in each of these generations (F2, F3, and F10) would be homozygous for one or the other allele of this gene? [Broad hint: if they’re not heterozygous, they’re homozygous!]
4) The round pea seed allele (R) is dominant, while the wrinkled pea seed allele (r) isrecessive. A heterozygous round-seeded pea plant is crossed with a wrinkle-seeded peaplant. Use a Punnett Square to solve the following: a. Determine the predicted genotype ratio of the offspring. b. Determine the predicted phenotype ratio of the offspring. c. If this cross produced 50 plants, how many plants would you predict would bewrinkle-seeded pea plants? please if punnet square needed write down the P G and F1 also thanks
4. An albino corn snake is crossed with a normal-coloredcorn snake. The offspring are all normal-colored.When these first-generation progeny snakes arecrossed among themselves, they produce 32 normalcolored snakes and 10 albino snakes.a. How do you know that only a single gene is responsible for the color differences between these snakes? b. Which of these phenotypes is controlled by thedominant allele?c. A normal-colored female snake is involved in atestcross. This cross produces 10 normal-coloredand 11 albino offspring. What are the genotypes ofthe parents and the offspring?
1. A purebred dog with brown fur and brown eyes is mated with a pure breed dog with white fur and blue eyes (note: this is hypothetical). All the F1 progeny are brown fur with brown eyes.

2. a. A Drosophila male from a true-breeding stockwith scabrous eyes was mated with a female from atrue-breeding stock with javelin bristles. Both scabrous eyes and javelin bristles are autosomal recessive mutant traits. The F1 progeny all had normaleyes and bristles. F1 females from this cross weremated with males with both scabrous eyes andjavelin bristles. Write all the possible phenotypicclasses of the progeny that could be produced from the cross of the F1 females with the scabrous, javelin males, and indicate for each class whether it is arecombinant or parental type.b. The cross in part (a) yielded the following progeny:77 scabrous eyes and normal bristles; 76 wild type(normal eyes and bristles); 74 normal eyes andjavelin bristles; and 73 scabrous eyes and javelinbristles. Are the genes governing these traits likelyto be linked, or do they instead assort independently? Why?c. Suppose you mated the F1 females from the crossin part (a) to wild-type males. Why would thiscross fail…

1) Two true-breeding varieties of maize, one 11 cm high and the other 47 cm high were crossed and the resultant F1 hybrids were then crossed to generate the F2 . In the F2 there were a total of 13,923 plants with a continuous variation in heights between the two extremes and with only 3 plants as large as 47 cm high and 5 plants of 11 cm high.a) How many i) genes and ii) how many alleles are involved in determining height in this plant? b) What is the contribution of each dominant allele to the phenotype in cm? c) What would be the size and genotype of the F1 from a cross between a true-breeding 11 cm plant and a true-breeding 47 cm plant? d) The F1 from (b) is then crossed to give an F2.
