Co- Dominance1) In cattle, the alleles for red coat (R) and white coat (W) behave as the co-dominants. Both red and white hairs are produced in the heterozygote producing a coat pattern that is called "roan." a) Give the phenotypic and genotypic ratios to be expected among the offspring from a cross of two roan animals. b) What are the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios from a cross of a roan animal and a white one?
Codominance in blood types. If a male with type A blood (with genotype IAi) mates with a female having type B blood (with genotype IBi), what are the phenotypic ratios for the blood types of the offspring? ___ A : ___ B : ___ AB : ____ O Suppose that one parent has type AB blood, and the blood type of the other parent is not known. Describe how a child can (or cannot) have the following blood types: Type A Type B Type AB Type O
D) Genetics Problem show the table and word In certain breeds of chickens, the allele "B" is responsible for black feathers whereas the contrasting allele "b" produces feathers that are white. Another r pair of alleles influences the shape of the feathers. "F" produces straight feathers whereas the contrasting gene for "f results in the frizzled condition. Give the genotypic and phenotypic ratios to be expected from the following cross: white, frizzled hen with a heterozygous black, homozygous straight rooster. Genotypic Ratio: Phenotypic Ratio:
Genetic cross with dependent assortment (linked traits). Repeat the previous problem but assume that the genes are located very close to each other on the same chromosome, and are therefore always linked (passed on together). Assume that in these individuals, each chromosome contains the dominant allele for one gene and the recessive allele for the other gene. Note: this is similar to the dependent assortment example in your notes, but the linkage is different. Construct a 2x2 Punnett square, and answer the questions below: GgBb x GgBb GB Gb gB gb GB GGBB GGBb GgBB GgBb Gb GGBb GGbb GgBb Ggbb gB GgBB GgBb ggBB ggBb gb GgBb Ggbb ggBb ggbb a) From your Punnett square, how many individuals are dihybrids? b) How many individuals are both homozygous recessive for coat color and heterozygous for eye color (ggBb)? c) Fill in the blanks to state the expected phenotypic ratio of the offspring:…
Analysis of X-Linked Dominant and Recessive Traits Suppose a couple, both phenotypically normal, have two children: one unaffected daughter and one son affected with a genetic disorder. The phenotype ratio is 1:1, making it difficult to determine whether the trait is autosomal or X-linked. With your knowledge of genetics, what are the genotypes of the parents and children in the autosomal case? In the X-linked case?
More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment Determine the possible genotypes of the following parents by analyzing the phenotypes of their children. In this case, we will assume that brown eyes (B) is dominant to blue (b) and that right-handedness (R) is dominant to left-handedness (r). a. Parents: brown eyes, right-handed brown eyes, right-handed Offspring: 3/4 brown eyes, right-handed 1/4 blue eyes, right-handed b. Parents: brown eyes, right-handed blue eyes, right-handed Offspring: 6/16 blue eyes, right-handed 2/16 blue eyes, left-handed 6/16 brown eyes, right-handed 2/16 brown eyes, left-handed c. Parents: brown eyes, right-handed blue eyes, left-handed Offspring: 1/4 brown eyes, right-handed 1/4 brown eyes, left-handed 1/4 blue eyes, right-handed 1/4 blue eyes, left-handed
Analysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits The father of 12 children begins to show symptoms of Huntington disease. a. What is the probability that Sam, the mans second-oldest son (II-2), will suffer from the disease if he lives a normal life span? (Sams mother and her ancestors do not have the disease.) b. Can you infer anything about the presence of the disease in Sams paternal grandparents?
More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment In pea plants, long stems are dominant to short stems, purple flowers are dominant to white, and round peas are dominant to wrinkled. Each trait is determined by a single, different gene. A plant that is heterozygous at all three loci is self-crossed, and 2,048 progeny are examined. How many of these plants would you expect to be long stemmed with purple flowers, producing wrinkled peas?
More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment Consider the following cross in pea plants, in which smooth pea shape is dominant to wrinkled, and yellow pea color is dominant to green. A plant with smooth yellow peas is crossed to a plant with wrinkled green peas. The offspring produced peas that were all smooth and yellow. What are the genotypes of the parents? What are the genotypes of the offspring?
Variations on a Theme by Mendel Pea plants usually have white or red flowers. A strange pea-plant variant is found that has pink flowers. A selfcross of this plant yields the following phenotypes: 30 red flowers 62 pink flowers 33 white flowers What are the genotypes of the parents? What is the genotype of the progeny with red flowers?
Analysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits a. What pattern of inheritance is suggested by the following pedigree? b. For genotype assignment, assume that the pedigree is for an autosomal dominant trait and that the affected male in the first generation is heterozygous. Assign genotypes to all other individuals in the pedigree.
MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE. In the following items, read each statement carefully. I. The Mendelian pattern of inheritance is a general term that refers to any pattern of inheritance in which traits do not segregate in accordance with Mendel’s lawsII. As an example, a characteristic may be controlled by one gene with two alleles, but the two alleles have a same relationship like the simple dominant-recessive relationship a. The first statement (I) is correct and the second statement (II) is wrong b. The first statement (I) is wrong and the second statement (II) is correct c. Both statements are correct d. Both statements are wrong MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE. In the following items, read each statement carefully. I. The continuity of life from one cell to another has its foundation in the reproduction of cells by way of the cell cycle.II. The cell cycle is an orderly sequence of events in the life of a cell from the division of a single parent cell to produce…
