Gene Interaction and Epistasis Hair color is due to the presence of melanin. There are two types of melanin produced by melanocytes. One is eumelanin, which is responsible for black (homozygous), brown (heterozygous), and blond (recessive) hair colors. The other is pheomelanin, which is responsible for red hair color. During melanin synthesis, MCR1gene converts pheomelanin to eumelanin. However, a variant of the MCR1 gene (MCR1variant), prevents this conversion. A cross between a blond-haired mother and a red-haired father produced 100% brown-haired children. When they came of age, one child married a double heterozygote, and both were blessed with 7 children; 2 with black hair, 2 with brown hair, 1 with blond hair, and 2 with red hair. Using the 7-step method, determine the genotypes of the P1, the F1, and the F2s. BOX your answers (if handwritten) or HIGHLIGHT your answers (if encoded).

MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE. In the following items, read each statement carefully. I. The Mendelian pattern of inheritance is a general term that refers to any pattern of inheritance in which traits do not segregate in accordance with Mendel’s lawsII. As an example, a characteristic may be controlled by one gene with two alleles, but the two alleles have a same relationship like the simple dominant-recessive relationship a. The first statement (I) is correct and the second statement (II) is wrong b. The first statement (I) is wrong and the second statement (II) is correct c. Both statements are correct d. Both statements are wrong MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE. In the following items, read each statement carefully. I.

Neep help ASAP. A red flowered plant was crossed with a blue flowered plant and produced all purple flowered plants. When the purple flowered plants were crossed with each other they produced 5 red plants, 5 blue plants, 20 deep purple plants, 20 light lilac plants, and 30 purple plants How many genes are involved in the color production? Assume that red color is caused by an A allele and blue color by a B allele and determine the likely genotype of the plants in the F2 generation.
