Red-flowering snapdragons are homozygous for allele RI. White-flowing snapdragons are homozygous for a different allele (R2). Heterozygous plants (R1 R2) bear pink flowers. What phenotypes should appear among first-generation offspring of the crosses listed? What are the expected proportions for each phenotype? a. R1R1 R1R2 b. R1R1 R2R2 c. R1R2 R1R2 d. R1R2 R2R2
In cats, the genotype AA produces tabby fur color; Aa is also a tabby, and aa is black. Another gene at a different locus is epistatic to the gene for fur color. When present in its dominant W form (WW or Ww), this gene blocks the formation of fur color and all the offspring are white; ww individuals develop normal fur color. What fur colors, and in what proportions, would you expect from the cross AaWw Aa Ww?

Two mothers give birth to sons at the same time at a busy urbanhospital. The son of mother 1 has hemophilia, a disease causedby an X-linked recessive allele. Neither parent has the disease.Mother 2 has a son without hemophilia, despite the fact thatthe father has hemophilia. Several years later, couple 1 suesthe hospital, claiming that these two newborns were swappedin the nursery following their birth. As a genetic counselor, youare called to testify. What information can you provide the juryconcerning the allegation?
A man, Penoy, whose sister died in early childhood from a recessive lethal disease marries a woman Esmae, who has the same family history. Because Penoy has survived beyond childhood, he does not have the disease, but he may be a carrier (i.e. heterozygous, as may also be the case with Esmae). What is the probability that their first child will suffer from the disease? [Hint: first calculate the probability that Penoy is heterozygous; then determine the probability that both parents are carriers. Remember that he has survived to adulthood when calculating this probability].

(enter a number only) 2.In snapdragons, a flowering plant, red (R) flower colour is dominant to white (r). The heterozygous condition results in pink flower colour. If a two pink flowered snapdragons are crossed, what is the resulting phenotype ratio? Select one: a.2:2 b.1:1:1:1 c.1:2:1 d.3:1 e. (all will be the same)
Incomplete Dominance: 1) On the planet Iota Geminorum IV there exists a small hairy animal known as a tribble. It comes in three colors blue, red, and purple. This trait is controlled by a single locus with incompletre dominance. A homozygous CBCB is blue, a homozygous CRCR is red, and a heterozygous CBCR is purple. a. What would be the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring if a blue tribble were crossed with a red one? b. If the offspring in #1 were crossed what would the genotypic and phenotypic ratios be of this generation?
Classical hemophilia is a sex-linked disease caused by a recessive gene on the X chromosome. (Hemophilia refers to diseases that cause delays in blood clotting.) If a woman who is acarrierof classical hemophilia has children with a normal male, give the ratios of the possible offspring with respect to classical hemophilia. Be sure to state both the genotypes and the phenotypes of each offspring. For genotypes, use X for a normal X chromosome, Xh for an X chromosome with the hemophilia gene, and Y for a normal Y chromosome. For phenotypes, if the offspring is female, be sure to state if homozygous normal, a carrier, or has the disease. If the offspring is a male, be sure to state if normal or has the disease.
