In an example of recessive epistasis the deposition of pigment into hair follicles of the Labrador Retriever is governed by a dominant gene (C) and lack of deposition by its recessive allele (c). Lack of pigment deposition produces a yellow coat color. The color of pigment is governed by an independently assorting hypostatic gene, the dominant allele (B) produces black pigment and its recessive allele (b) produces brown. What coat color ratio is expected from the cross of a brown dog (bbCc) to a black dog (BbCc)? 3/8 black, 1/8 brown, 1/2 yellow 3/8 black, 3/8 brown, 1/4 yellow 1/2 brown, 1/2 black 1/2 black, 1/4 brown, 1/4 yellow 1/4 black, 1/4 brown, 1/2 yellow

In mice, the presence of a dominant A allele results in the agouti pattern of fur color, whereas the aa homozygous recessive results in a solid color pattern. The presence of another dominant B allele results in black fur color, whereas the homozygous recessive bb results in brown fur color. The presence of a third dominant C allele is required for any color to be observed (brown or black), whereas the homozygous recessive cc results in lack of any color whatsoever (albino). What is the phenotype of a mouse with the following genotype? Aa bb cc albino Agouti color pattern and brown Solid color pattern and brown Agouti color pattern and black Solid color pattern and black
In humans, brown eyes are dominant to blue eyes, and the ability to roll your tongue is dominant to not being able to roll your tongue. If a mother who was heterozygous for eye colour and homozygous recessive for tongue rolling had a baby with a father that was heterozygous for both traits, what is the probability that their child would have blue eyes and could roll their tongue?
In humans, hair color and structure are determined by two independent pairs of genes. The dominant gene T determines dark hair color, and the recessive allele t - light hair; The dominant gene S determines the formation of curly hair, and its recessive allele t - straight hair. What kind of hair will the children have if the mother has light, straight hair, and the father has dark, curly hair (one of the pairs of traits is heterozygous for both parents)?
In genetics, the dash symbol (–) is a “wild card” that stands for either the dominant allele or the recessive allele; for example, A– means the individual has either the genotype AA or Aa. Two genes that undergo independent assortment affect coat color in Duroc pigs. Each gene has two alleles, one of which is dominant for coat color. Genotypes of the form A– B– are red, those of the form A– bb and aa B– are sandy, and genotype aa bb is white. What ratio of red:sandy:white is expected from the cross Aa Bb x Aa Bb?
In birds there are two genes that both influence beak phenotype. The first is an autosomal gene for beak colour with two alleles – a dominant allele for a black beak and a recessive allele for a grey beak. The second gene for beak shape is a sex-linked gene with two alleles – a dominant allele for sharp beaks and a recessive allele for rounded beaks. A cross between a male with a black, rounded beak and a female with a black, sharp beak are expected to produce the following offspring:3 males with black, sharp beaks : 3 females with black, rounded beaks : 1 male with a grey, sharp beak : 1 female with a grey, round beak Based on this cross, answer the following questions:i) Please provide appropriate symbols for the two alleles for beak colour. ii) Please provide appropriate symbols for the two alleles for beak shape.iii) What is the probability that a chick born to these parents will have a rounded beak? iv) What is the probability of a male chick having a sharp beak? v) What is the…
In Labrador dogs, coat color is controlled by the genotypes of two genes. In one gene, the dominant allele, B, produces black fur, and the recessive allele, b, produces brown fur. However, if a second gene possesses two recessive alleles, ee, the dog produces yellow fur, regardless of the genotype of the first gene. If two dogs that are heterozygous for both genes, BbEe mated, what would be the frequency of the three phenotypes, black, brown, and yellow?
Two genes, U and H, affect wing development in a species of flying pigs, where some pigs have wings and some do not. Pigs with wings are always homozygous at gene U (U1U1). Among pigs with wings, allele H4 codes for grey feathers and is dominant over allele H5, which codes for white feathers. Which of the following best describes this scenario? Group of answer choices 1.Recessive epistasis of U over H 2.Dominant epistasis of H over U 3.Duplicate Recessive Epistasis 4.Dominant epistasis of U over H 5.Duplicate Dominant Epistasis 6.Recessive epistasis of H over U

In humans, the genetic disease cystic fibrosis is caused by a recessive allele (a). The normal (healthy) allele is dominant (A). What is the genotype of someone who has cystic fibrosis? What are the two different genotypes that a healthy person could have? If two people were both heterozygous for the cystic fibrosis gene, what fraction of their children would be likely to have this disease? Hint: Draw a Punnett square to figure it out.
