Bokoblins and Moblins are pig-like monsters commonly found around the Kingdom of Hyrule. You hypothesize that monster type (bokoblin/moblin) and color (red/blue) are controlled by independently assorting mendelian loci with bokoblin dominant to moblin, and red dominant to blue. To test your hypothesis you cross a true-breeding line of red bokoblins to a true-breeding line of blue moblins. The F1 generation is entirely red bokoblins. The results for the F2 generation are in the table below. Use a chi-squared test to determine if your hypothesis is supported or not. Write your conclusion in 1-2 eloquent sentences.

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?
The text outlines some of the problems Frederick William I encountered in his attempt to breed tall Potsdam Guards. a. Why were the results he obtained so different from those obtained by Mendel with short and tall pea plants? b. Why were most of the children shorter than their tall parents?
For all seven characters described in the data of Mendel allowed the F2 plants to self-fertilize. He found that whenF2 plants with recessive traits were crossed to each other, theyalways bred true. However, when F2 plants with dominant traitswere crossed, some bred true but others did not. A summary ofMendel’s results is shown to the right When considering the data in this table, keep in mind that theydescribe the characteristics of the F2 generation parents that haddisplayed a dominant phenotype. These data were deduced byanalyzing the outcome of the F3 generation. Based on Mendel’slaws, explain why the ratios were approximately 1:2
In one study, Gregor Mendel crossed yellow-seeded, tall garden pea with a green-seeded,short garden pea. The F1 offspring were all yellow-seeded and tall. Assumingindependent assortment of these two genes, what phenotypes and proportions did he finamong F2 offspring when the F1 garden peas are allowed to fertilize themselves? Show the solution with punnett square.
In Mendel’s 1866 publication as shown in Figure 1-4,he reports 705 purple-flowered (violet) offspring and224 white-flowered offspring. The ratio he obtained is3.15:1 for purple: white. How do you think he explainedthe fact that the ratio is not exactly 3:1?
A rare recessive allele inherited in a Mendelian mannercauses the disease cystic fibrosis. A phenotypically normal man whose father had cystic fibrosis marries a phenotypically normal woman from outside the family, andthe couple consider having a child.a. Draw the pedigree as far as described.b. If the frequency in the population of heterozygotesfor cystic fibrosis is 1 in 50, what is the chance that thecouple’s first child will have cystic fibrosis?c. If the first child does have cystic fibrosis, what is theprobability that the second child will be normal?
Given a cross between these two parents: BbCcDDEEFfGgHhjj x BbCcddEeFfGgHHjj where traits B, E, H, J exhibit Mendelian inheritance; C, and F exhibit incomplete dominance; D, and G exhibit co-dominance answer the following: How many phenotypes can be expected from the cross?
When Gregor Mendel performed his breeding experiments on pea plants, he discovered that tallness in the plants is inherited through a simple dominant trait (coded "T") with shortness as the recessive trait (coded "t"). Imagine that Mendel bred a homozygous dominant pea plant with a pea plant heterozygous for tallness. Draw a Punnett Square to help you answer this question and the next one: In the 1st generation of offspring, we expect the genotypes (for tallness) to include… a) 50% homozygous dominant, 50% heterozygous b) 100% heterozygous c) 50% tall, 50% short d) 100% tall e) None of the above
In Figure 1-6, the students have 1 of 15 different heights,plus there are two height classes (4′11″ and 5′ 0″) forwhich there are no observed students. That is a total of17 height classes. If a single Mendelian gene can account for only two classes of a trait (such as purple orwhite flowers), how many Mendelian genes would beminimally required to explain the observation of 17height classes?
In a species of tropical fish, a colorful orange andblack variety called montezuma occurs. When twomontezumas are crossed, 2/3 of the progeny are montezuma and 1/3 are the wild-type, dark grayish greencolor. Montezuma is a single-gene trait, and montezuma fish are never true-breeding.a. Explain the inheritance pattern seen here and showhow your explanation accounts for the phenotypicratios given.b. In this same species, the morphology of the dorsalfin is altered from normal to ruffled by homozygosity for a recessive allele designated f. What progenywould you expect to obtain, and in what proportions, from the cross of a montezuma fish homozygous for normal fins to a green, ruffled fish?c. What phenotypic ratios of progeny would be expected from the crossing of two of the montezumaprogeny from part (b)?
A student whose hobby was fishing pulled a very unusual carp out of Cayuga Lake: It had no scales on itsbody. She decided to investigate whether this strangenude phenotype had a genetic basis. She therefore obtained some inbred carp that were pure-breeding forthe wild-type scale phenotype (body covered withscales in a regular pattern) and crossed them with hernude fish. To her surprise, the F1 progeny consistedof a 1:1 ratio of wild-type fish and fish with a singlelinear row of scales on each side.a. Can a single gene with two alleles account for thisresult? Why or why not?b. To follow up on the first cross, the student allowedthe linear fish from the F1 generation to mate witheach other. The progeny of this cross consisted offish with four phenotypes: linear, wild type, nude,and scattered (the latter had a few scales scattered irregularly on the body). The ratio of these phenotypeswas 6:3:2:1, respectively. How many genes appear tobe involved in determining these phenotypes?c. In…
