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 black. What is the chance that a son of the third-generation female indicated by the arrow will be color blind if the father is not color blind? If he is color blind?
In flowers, purple flower color is dominant and denoted by "P" while white flower color is recessive and is denoted by "p". In a monohybrid cross between 2 heterozygous purple flowers, what is the expected phenotypic offspring ratio?
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?
Given a cross between AabbCcDdEeFFGgHh x AaBbCcDdEEffggHH, a) how many possible gametes can the first individual produce? b) what proportion of the offspring will phenotypically resemble the first parent? c) what proportion of the offspring will genotypically resemble the second parent? d) how many phenotypes can be expected from the cross?
In certain plants, tall (T) is dominant to short (t). If a heterozygous plant is crossed with a homozygous short plant, what is the probability that the offspring will be short? Show the punnett square please.
In the dihybrid cross AaBb ´ aabb, what proportion of individuals are expected to be homozygotic for both genes in the F1generation? Assume that in guinea pigs, dark brown fur (B) is dominant to black fur (b). If you mate a homozygous black guinea pig with a heterozygous brown guinea pig, what proportion of the progeny will be black? Assume that in guinea pigs, dark brown fur (B) is dominant to black fur (b). If you mate a black guinea pig with a homozygous brown guinea pig, what proportion of the progeny will be homozygous?
In snapdragons, red flower color (R) is incompletely dominant over white flower color (r), so that the heterozygote has pink flowers. A red snapdragon is crossed with a white snapdragon, and the F1 are intercrossed to produce F2. What is the genotype and phenotypes of the F1 and F2, along with their expected proportions? If the F1 are backcrossed to the white parent, what will be the expected genotype and phenotype of the offspring? If the F1 are backcrossed to the red parent and the resulting progeny are intercrossed, what is the expected proportions of genotypes and phenotypes in the progeny?
Consider this cross in pea plants: Tt Rr yy Aa × Tt rr Yy Aa, whereT = tall, t = dwarf, R = round, r = wrinkled, Y = yellow, y = green,A = axial, a = terminal. What is the expected phenotypic outcomeof this cross? Have one group of students solve this problem bymaking one big Punnett square, and have another group solve it bymaking four single-gene Punnett squares and using the multiplication method. Time each other to see who gets done first.
In chickens, the Leghorn variety has white feathers due to an autosomal dominant allele. Silkies have white feathers due to a recessive allele in a second (different) gene. If a true-breeding whiteLeghorn is crossed to a true-breeding white Silkie, what is theexpected phenotype of the F1 generation? If members of the F1generation are mated to each other, what is the expected phenotypic ratio of the F2 generation? Assume the chickens in the parental generation are homozygous for the white allele at one gene andhomozygous for the brown allele at the other gene. In subsequentgenerations, nonwhite birds will be brown.
In the cross between a female AaBbccDdee and male AabbCcDdee, what proportion of the progeny are expected to be phenotypically identical to the female parent?
In a cross between fair skin, black hair (heterozygous for all these traits) with brown skin, red hair, what is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring?
In a cross between two, dihybrid, heterozygous individuals, what fraction of the offspring will be dominant for only the (A) gene?
