B. In fruit fly, Drosophila, the genes for vestigial wings, white eyes, and black body ar linked. These genes are recessive. A fruit fly strain that is homozygous for white eyes wa crossed with a strain that is homozygous for vestigial wings and black body. The F1 wer then testcrossed, and the resulting offspring were as follows: Phenotype Number wild type (dominant for all traits) 9 white eyes 1779 vestigial wings 241 black body 131 vestigial wings, black body 1654 vestigial wings, white eyes 118 white eyes, black body 252 vestigial wings, white eyes, black body 13 1. Calculate the map distance between the genes for a. vestigial wings and white eyes b. vestigial wings and black body c. white eyes and black body 2. What is the correct order of gene in the chromosome?

Considering the Mendelian traits round versus wrinkled and yellow versus green, consider the crosses below and determine the genotypes of the parental plants by analyzing the phenotypes of their offspring.

In human beings, the gene for red‑green colorblindness (r) is sex‑linked and recessive to its allele for normal vision (R), while the gene for freckles (F) is autosomal and dominant over its allele for nonfreckled (f). A nonfreckled, normal‑visioned woman whose father was freckled and colorblind, marries a freckled, colorblind man whose mother was nonfreckled. What is the genotype of the woman's father? What is the probability that the couple's first child will be a non-freckled, normal visioned girl? What is the probability that the first two children born to the couple will be freckled and colorblind girls?
X‑linked, recessive diseases, such as hemophilia, are extremely rare in the population. However, many women are carriers and show no sign of the disease. The pedigree illustrates the inheritance of an X‑linked, recessive disease. Determine whether the unknown individuals are affected by the disease, unaffected by the disease, or carriers of the X‑linked recessive allele. Unaffected individuals are not carriers of the X‑linked recessive allele.
In Drosophila, the fruit fly, white eyes are determined by a recessive X-linked gene and the wild-type or normal brick-red eyes are due to its dominant allele. Use symbols of the following types: XrY = a white-eyed male; XRXR = a homozygous normal red female Show the genotypes and list the phenotypes of the F1 offspring Now, cross the F1 offspring. Show the genotypes and list the phenotypes of the F2 offspring.
Using Drosophila notation: A.) Diagram the genotype of a female fly that is recessive for apterus (ap, chromosome 2), heterozygous wild-type for black (b, chromosome 2), recessive for forked (f, x-chromosome), and homozygous wild type for rosy (ry, chromosome 3). B.) Diagram the genotype of a male fly that is heterozygous for clot (ct) eyes (an autosomal gene) and has yellow (y) body color (x-linked gene).
Consider a rare disease that is X-linked recessive. A normal man is married to a normal woman with no family history of the disease. They have an affected child. What can you deduce from this? Choose the most correct option. -The child is a carrier of the disease allele, and she is a daughter. -The child is a carrier of the disease allele, and he is a son. -Their child is a daughter. -The child is likely adopted. -Their child is a son.
The pedigree below shows inheritance of a particular autosomal (not X-linked) trait across three generations. This trait is controlled by a single gene. Males are shown as squares, females as circles. Shaded shapes indicate the person DOES have the trait, white shapes indicate the person DOES NOT have the trait. This trait is ________, and the genotype of person 10 is ______.
The hornless trait in cattle is dominant. The horned trait is recessive. A certain hornless bull is mated to three cows. Cow A, which is horned gives birth to a hornless calf. Cow B, also horned, produces a horned calf. Cow C, which is hornless, produces a horned calf. Name the genotypes of all parents and show the Punnett squares and possible genotypes of each offspring resulting from the cross.
In pea plants, seed shape and seed color are controlled by genes located on different chromosomes. Seeds may be round (R) or wrinkled (r), with the allele for round seeds being dominant. Alleles for seed color are yellow and green, with the green allele (y) recessive to the yellow (Y) allele. If you cross an individual that is homozygous round and yellow with an individual that is homozygous for wrinkled and green, what is the genotype of the F1 individuals? Set up a Punnett square for the dihybrid cross.
a) What is the most likely mode of inheritance? b) If this were a pedigree you did NOT want to propagate, which individual(s) from generation III would you continue to breed (list all/any). In other words, who does NOT carry the phenotype causing allele?
Wavy hair is intermediate to straight and curly hair. Similarly, medium-sized nose may be inherited if one parent has a large nose and the other parent has a small nose. James has wavy hair, large nose, and type A blood. His father is type O. What is the complete genotype of James? __________________ Nicole has straight hair, medium-sized nose, and type AB blood. What is the complete genotype of Nicole? __________________ Should James and Nicole marry, what is the probability that they will have a: Daughter with the same traits as Nicole? ______________ Son with the same traits as James? ____________________ Child with curly hair, small nose, and type O blood? _______
In Drosophila, white eyes (w) are recessive to red eyes (w+) at one locus and black body (b) is recessive to gray body (b+). A homozygous white eyes, gray bodied female is crossed with a homozygous red eyes, black bodied male to produce the F1 progeny. The F1 progeny are testcrossed and produce the following progeny: White eyes, black body: 212 White eyes, gray body: 288 Red eyes, black body: 308 Red eyes, gray body: 192 Does the evidence indicate that w and b loci are linked? Explain why or why not? If they are linked, what is the map distance between the two loci? If they are not linked, what is the map distance between the two loci? If they are linked, are the allels in the F1 in coupling or repulsion? How do you know? Draw the genotypes of all individuals described in the problem (original parents, F1, testcross, and F2 progeny) using the appropriate notation.
