What inheritance pattern results from alleles with incomplete dominance? There is a range of phenotypes such that the trait appears along a spectrum rather than "either or" There is a 3rd phenotype, often and intermediate value between the other 2 extremes The recessive phenotype is sex linked The recessive phenotype skips a generation

Parent with black hair:________ Parent with gray hair:________ Group of answer choices a) BB, Bb d) Bb, bb c) bb, bb d) BB, bb
A scientist takes a frog with green skin and mates it to a frog with brown skin. All the frogs in the next generation have very brown skin. Two of the F1 frogs are mated to one another. Their offspring are some green-skinned and some brown-skinned. The two different phenotypes of the F2 produced by parents with a single phenotype demonstrates which concept? Group of answer choices A. law of segregation B. law of independent assortment C. codominance D. complete dominance E. blending inheritance
The gene for eye color uses the symbol B for brown eyes (dominant) and b for blue eyes (recessive). What are the mother is homozygous dominant and the father is heterozygous. What percent of the offspring will have brown eyes? What about blue eyes? Be able to show the cross in a Punnett square on the exam.

A gardener received a pea plant from her neighbor, and she wants to know its genotype. The neighbor told her it produces round peas, which is a dominant trait (R) to wrinkled peas (r). The gardener performs a test cross and observes that half of the offspring plants produce wrinkled peas. What is the genotype of the plant she received from her neighbor?) homozygous recessive, rr heterozygous, Rr homozygous dominant, RR In pea plants, the allele for round peas (R) is dominant to the allele for wrinkled peas (r). A gardener has a plant he got from his neighbor that produces round peas, but he does not know its genotype. What simple procedure could he do to determine the genotype of his new plant?) Perform a dihybrid cross—if only 1 out of 16 offspring are wrinkled, then the new plant’s genotype is RR. Perform a test cross with a plant that has an Rr genotype—if all of the offspring give round seeds, then the new plant’s genotype is Rr. Perform a test cross…
