- Sunflowers with flowers 10 cm in diameter are crossed with a plant that has 20-cm flowers. The F1 plants have flowers 15 cm in diameter. In the F2 generation, 4 flowers are 10 cm in diameter and 4 are 20 cm in diameter. Between these are 5 phenotypic classes with diameters intermediate to those at the extremes. a. Assuming that the alleles that contribute to flower diameter act additively, how many genes control flower size in this strain of sunflowers? b. How much does each additive allele contribute to flower diameter? c. What size flower makes up the largest phenotypic class?Figure 8.10 In pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant to white (p), and yellow peas (Y) are dominant to green (y). What are the possible genotypes and phenotypes for a cross between PpYY and ppYy pea plants? How many squares would you need to complete a Punnett square analysis of this cross?As it turned out, one of the tallest Potsdam Guards had an unquenchable attraction to short women. During his tenure as guard, he had numerous clandestine affairs. In each case, children resulted. Subsequently, some of the childrenwho had no way of knowing that they were relatedmarried and had children of their own. Assume that two pairs of genes determine height. The genotype of the 7-foot-tall Potsdam Guard was A9A9B9B9, and the genotype of all of his 5-foot clandestine lovers was AABB. An A9 or B9 allele in the offspring each adds 6 inches to the base height of 5 feet conferred by the AABB genotype. a. What were the genotypes and phenotypes of all the F1 children? b. Diagram the cross between the F1 offspring, and give all possible genotypes and phenotypes of the F2 progeny
- A. You cross a true-breeding sunflower, with yellow flowers and black seeds, with another true-breeding sunflower, with white flowers and green seeds. All of the F1 generation have yellow flowers and green seeds. Create allele symbols and genotypes for these genes and create a representation of this cross, which is consistent with the stated premises. Show your work. B. Upon completing an F1xF1 cross of the yellow flower, green seed sunflowers, you observe the following phenotype classes of offspring in the F2: 250 Yellow flowers and black seeds; 250 white flowers and green seeds; 500 yellow flowers and green seeds. A test cross of the yellow flower, green seed F1 generation generates the following offspring: 500 white flowers and green seeds; 500 yellow flowers and black seeds. Do these observations taken together, of the F1, F2, and test cross offspring, respectively, represent violations of Mendel's first law, Mendel's second law, or both? Explain your answer.In the tomato, yellow flowers (Y) is dominant to white flowers (y). A true-breeding yellow flowered strain is crossed with a true-breeding white flowered strain.A. If the F1 generation is self crossed, what will be the genotypes and phenotypes of the progeny and in what portions are they expected? B. If an F1 plant were crossed with a plant from true-breeding white flowered strain, what will be the genotypes and phenotypes of the progeny and in what portions are they expected?Assume that three loci, each with two alleles (A and a, B and b, C and c), determine the difference in height between two homozygous strains of a plant. These genes are additive and equal in their effects on plant height. One strain (aa bb cc) is 10 cm in height. The other strain (AA BB CC) is 22 cm in height. The two strains are crossed, and the resulting F1 are interbred to produce F2 progeny. Give the phenotypes and the expected proportions of the F2 progeny.
- In a parental cross of a ADHL disease trait, where the father is affected and the mother is unaffected, 50% of the offspring will have the disease phenotype and 50% will have the WT phenotype. In an F1 cross between an affected male and an unaffected female, the expected proportions of the Disease Phenotype and the WT phenotype, respectively, are: a. 0.667 and 0.333. b. 0.50 and 0.50. c. 0.333 and 0.667. d. 0.0 and 1.0 e. 0.75 and 0.25.In cultivated flowers called “stocks,” the recessive genotype of one locus (aa) prevents the development of pigment in the flower thus producing a white color. In the presence of the dominant allele A, alleles at another locus may be expressed as follows: B_ = red. bb = cream. a) When cream stocks of the genotype Aabb are crossed to red stocks of the genotype AaBb, what genotypic and phenotypic proportions are expected in the progeny? b) When dihybrid red stocks are crossed together, what phenotypic ratio is expected among the progeny? c) If red stocks crossed to white stocks produced progeny with red, cream and white flowers, what are the genotypes of the parents? Show the results of the cross based on your answer.In Mendel’s pea plants, axial (A) flowers are dominant over terminal (a) flowers. a. What is the genotype of a homozygus axial parent plant? b.

Phenotype: If the F1s are selfed, determine the following: e. F2 genotypes ____________________ __________________________________________ ______________________f.

- The genes for tall vine D and yellow seed G, are dominant over their respective alleles for dwarf d and green g. What phenotypes are expected from each of the following crosses? Include phenotypic and genotypic ratio. Use Punnet square to show the ff. Crosses. a. Heterozygous tall, homozygous yellow X Homozygous Tall, heterozygous yellow. b. Homozygous Dwarf, heterozygous yellow X Heterozygous tall, homozygous greenConsider a true-breeding plant, AABBCC, crossed with another truebreeding plant, aabbcc, whose resulting offspring are AaBbCc. If you cross the F1 generation, and independent assortment is operational, the expected fraction of offspring in each phenotypic class is given by the expression N!/M!(N - M)! where N is the total number of alleles (six in this example) and M is the number of uppercase alleles. In a cross of AaBbCc * AaBbCc, what proportion of the offspring would be expected to contain two uppercase alleles?In summer squash, white fruit color (W) is dominant over yellow fruit color (w) and disk-shaped fruit (D) is dominant over sphere-shaped fruit (d).. If a squash plant true-breeding for white, disk-shaped fruit is crossed with a plant true-breeding for yellow, sphere-shaped fruit, what will the phenotypic and genotypic ratios be for: a. the F1 generation? b. the F2 generation? You must show the Punnett Square for the F2 generation!
