The reason why a person can have type AB blood is ... Group of answer choices [ ]: All of these answers are true [ ]: because the A and B alleles are co-dominant [ ]: because they don’t have the dominant O allele [ ]: because they represent entirely different genes.

From a cross of heterozygotes, which of the following phenotypic ratios suggests a lethal allele in the homozygous dominant? (ratios given as dominant: recessive phenotypes) Group of answer choices 2:1 1:2:1 3:1 3:0
In a particular animal, coat color is under the control of two interacting genes. Each gene has a dominant and recessive allele. A = Color, a = Albino, and B = Brown coat color, b = Red coat color. Two AaBb animals are mated. What proportion of their offspring is expected to be albino? Assume the genes are assorting independently.
In mice, the A allele causes agouti fur, the AY allele causes yellow fur and is dominant to the A allele. The homozygous AY AY genotype is lethal. Why is the AYAY homozygous condition lethal?
The gene for hair color in rabbits has two alleles brown and white. Brown is dominant over white. Fill in the Punnett's Square of offspring genotypes if one parent is heterozygous and the other is white-haired.
Suppose we have a true breeding parental cross for a disease with an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance. Further, the cross is between a parent with an DD genotype and a parent with a dd genotype, where D = dominant allele, d = recessive allele. How many phenotype classes will be observed in the F1 population? 4 2 0 (all offspring will die). 3 1
Which of the following terms means “many genes”?a. polymorphismb. polygenyc. polypeptided. multiple alleles
A homozygnous Dominant brown mouse is crossed with a heterozynous Brown mouse(tan is ressesive color)
The color of Andalusian chickens results from the inheritance of alleles that exhibit incomplete dominance. Black chickens result when 2 alleles for melanin production are inherited (MM). White splashed chickens result from the inheritance of 2 copies of a different allele (mm). The heterozygous condition (Mm) results in their famous bluish color. Predict the genotypes and phenotypes from the following crosses: MM x mm x Mm x Mm.
