A man is homozygous dominant for fair skin and heterozygous for black-straight hair, his wife has brown skin and black-curly hair. The wife's hair color is the same genotypically with the husband. His mother in-law hair color is red since birth. The couple wanted to have kids. Is there a possibility that their child will have brown skin, curly-red hair, Yes or NO? If yes, what is its probability?

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 female who is heterozygous for tongue rolling reproduces with a male who is homozygous recessive for tongue rolling. What is the probability that their child will NOT be able to roll its tongue? ___________ % If a colorblind father and a non-colorblind carrier (heterozygote) mother have a daughter and a son, what is the probability for each that they are colorblind? daughter ............ % son ............... %
A man is homozygous dominant for fair skin and heterozygous for black-straight hair, his wife has brown skin and black-curly hair. The wife's hair color is the same genotypically with the husband. His mother in-law hair color is red since birth. The couple wanted to have kids. What is the probability that their child will be a girl?
If a man heterozygous for widow’s peak (dominant) marries a woman homozygous for continuous hairline (recessive), what are the chances the children will have a widow's peak? What are the chances the children will have continuous hairline?
If body-color B is dominant to green body color b what would the genotype be for a heterozygous individual be? Using the blue B and a green b body color from above create a Punit square that represents the offspring of two heterozygous parents? what is the probability that they will have a child with a green body-color If the child is green what is its genotype? Cross a green parent with a homozygous blue parent. What color will their kids be?

Black eye (B) is dominant over brown eye (b). A man that is a homozygous dominant black-eyed marries a woman that is a heterozygous black-eyed. The offspring resulted to 50% homozygous black and 50% heterozygous black. If one of their heterozygous children marries another heterozygous partner. Regardless of its gender, what are the genotypes of their children? a. 25% BB, 50% Bb, 25% bb b. 50% BB, 25% Bb, 25% bb c. 25% BB, 25% Bb, 50% bb d. 0% BB, 75% Bb, 25% bb In Law of Codominance, a pure line dominant trait crossed with a recessive trait will result to the appearance of both dominant and recessive trait in the offspring.

Two sisters have a father who is homozygous for his recessive blue eyes and a mother who is dominant for her heterozygous brown eyes. One sister has blue eyes, and the other has brown eyes. Which of the following explains the difference in the eye color of the sisters?
A pea plant is heterozygous for both pod shape and color. I is the allele for dominant, inflated pod; i is the allele for recessive, constricted pod. G is the allele for dominant, green pod; g is the allele for recessive, yellow color characteristic. Suppose this plant is crossed with a homozygous pea with inflated, green pod, what will be the possible genotype of the offspring? Identify the: Parents’ genes?Parents’ traits?Genes (genotype)?Shape, color? (phenotype)?Genotypic ratio?Phenotypic ratio?
Assume that right-handedness (R) is genetically dominant over lefthandedness (r) in humans, and that brown eyes (B) are genetically dominant over blue (b). A right-handed, blue-eyed man marries a right-handed, brown-eyed woman. Their two children are (1) right handed, blue eyed and (2) left handed, brown eyed. The man marries again, and this time the woman is right handed and brown eyed. They have 10 children, all right handed and brown eyed. What are the probable genotypes of the man and his two wives?
A pea plant is heterozygous for both pod shape and color. I is the allele for dominant, inflated pod; i is the allele for recessive, constricted pod.
