If a cross produced a progeny population of 900 plants that consists of 258 with white flowers and 642 with purple flowers, which of the following is most likely? P = purple, p = white. A. They deviated from a 3:1 ratio because of epistasis. B. They are the progeny of a cross in which one parent was PP and the other was Pp. C. P is clearly semi-dominant. D. The purple phenotype is co-dominant with white E. They resulted from a cross in which the parents were of identical genotype at the P locus.

Hibiscus plants have different varieties of flowers. In an instance, both the red and white flowers showed that they are incompletely dominant with each other. If the flowers that were produced in the Hibiscus experiment was cross bred with each other, what is the ratio of their genotype? Explain. A) 1:3 B) 1:1:1:1 C) 1:2:1 D) 2:2
A pure strain of Mendel’s peas, dominant for all seven of his independently assorting genes, was testcrossed. (a) How many different kinds of gametes could each of the parents produce? (b) How many different gametes could the F1 produce? (c) If the F1, was testcrossed, how many phenotypes would be expected in the offspring and in what proportions? d) How many genotypes would be expected in the F2? (e) How many combinations of F1 gametes are theoretically possible (considering, e.g., AABBCCDDEEFFGG sperm nucleus x aabbccddeefigg egg nucleus a different combination than AABBCCDDEEFFGG egg nucleus x aabbccddeeflgg sperm nucleus)? (f) How many different kinds of matings could theoretically be made among the F2?
If a cross is made between two plants that are heterozygous for two traits (AaBb), then their offspring should follow the 9:3:3:1 ratio. In this case, A is the dominant allele for purple leaves, and B is the dominant allelle for curly roots. If the two parents were crossed to yield 320 progeny, approximately how many plants with purple leaves and curly roots would you expect? Group of answer choices a.180 b.225 c.25 d.50 As part of a lab experiment, you create a two-locus cross between two plants, and you expect to see a 8:4:2:2 ratio of offspring. You determine the phenotype for 160 offspring, and find the proportions 84:38:19:19. If you use a chi-square test to determine whether the offspring do indeed fit this pattern, how many degrees of freedom would the test have? Group of answer choices a.2 b.3 c.83 d.4
Bateson and Punnett crossed two white-flowered lines and saw all purple flowers in the F1 generation. They concluded this was an example of complementary gene interactions because a cross of the F1 plants yielded what ratio in the F2 generation? A) 8 purple to 8 white B) 16 purple to 0 white C) 0 purple to 16 white D) 7 purple to 9 white E) 9 purple to 7 white
Two gene loci, A and B, are on separate chromosomes and alleles A and B are dominant over alleles a and b. A codes for long branches, a codes for short branches. B codes for green leaves and b codes for blue leaves. A branch diagram or a punnett square would be useful for you to work this problem. What percentage of the progeny will have short branches and blue leaves from a cross AaBb × Aabb? Group of answer choices 1/8 1/4 1/2 3/4
What is the difference between a monohybrid cross and a dihybrid cross? A. A monohybrid cross involves a single parent, whereas a dihybrid cross involves two parents. B. A monohybrid cross produces a single progeny, whereas a dihybrid cross produces two progeny. C. A monohybrid cross involves organisms that are heterozygous for a single trait, whereas a dihybrid cross involves organisms that are heterozygous for two traits. D. A monohybrid cross is performed only once, whereas a dihybrid cross is performed twice.
You crossed two true-breeding lines of violet-flowered and white-flowered peas. Is it possible to establish a true-breeding line of the genotype found in the offspring of your cross? Why or why not?
In a cross between a black and a white guinea pig, all members of the F1 generation are black. The F2 generation is made up of approximately 3/4 black and 1/4 white guinea pigs. (a) Diagram this cross, showing the genotypes and phenotypes. (b) What will the offspring be like if two F2 white guinea pigs are mated? (c) Two different matings were made between black members of the F2 generation, with the following results. Cross Offspring Cross 1 All black Cross 2 3/4 black, 1/4 white Diagram each of the crosses.
Two corn plants are studied. One is resistant (R) and the other is susceptible (S) to a certainpathogenic fungus. The following crosses are made, with the results shown: a) What can you conclude about the location of the genetic determinants of R and S? b) What other criteria can be used to determine if a certain trait follows the pattern shown in(a)?
In tomatoes, red fruit is dominant to yellow fruit, and purple stems are dominant to green stems. The progeny from one mating consisted of 305 red fruit, purple stem plants; 328 red fruit, green stem plants; 110 yellow fruit, purple stem plants; and 97 yellow fruit, green stem plants. What were the genotypes of the parents in this cross? Explain how you arrived at your answers.
Imagine that you are performing a cross involving seed texture in garden pea plants. You cross true-breeding round and wrinkled parents to obtain F1 offspring. Which of the following experimental results in terms of numbers of plants are closest to what you expect in the F2 progeny? a. 8lOroundseeds b. 8lOwrinkledseeds c. 405:395 round seeds:wrinkled seeds d. 610:190 round seeds:wrinkled seeds
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?
