In certain lizards, scaly skin is dominant to smooth skin and speckled color is dominant to grey color. These traits are inherited according to traditional Mendelian genetics (no linkage). The total progeny for a breeding pair of lizards resulted in the offspring listed below. What are the genotypes of the male and female parents? 102 scaly skinned, speckled off spring 110 smooth skinned, speckled offspring 38 scaly skinned, grey offspring 32 smooth skinned, grey offspring

Sesame plants produce seed pods with one chamber (O) or three chambers (o), and leaves that are normal (N) or wrinkled (n). The two traits are inherited independently. Determine the genotypes and phenotypes of the two parents that produced the following offspring: 304 with one-chamber pods and normal leaves; 100 one-chamber pods and wrinkled seeds; 298 with three-chamber pods and normal leaves; 103 with three chamber pods and wrinkled leaves.
Do a punnet square to find the possible genotypes and phenotypes of the F1 generation when a plant that is homozygous recessive for pod color and heterozygous for pea shape is crossed with a plant that is heterozygous for pod color and homozygous dominant for pea shape. Dominant for pod color = G (green) Recessive for pod color = g (yellow) Dominant for pea shape = R (round) Recessive for pea shape = r (wrinkled) P1: GG X Rr Gg X RR
Three coat-color patterns that occur in some breeds of horses aretermed cremello (beige), chestnut (brown), and palomino (goldenwith light mane and tail). If two palomino horses are mated, theyproduce about 1/4 cremello, 1/4 chestnut, and 1/2 palomino offspring. In contrast, cremello horses and chestnut horses breed true.(In other words, two cremello horses will produce only cremellooffspring, and two chestnut horses will produce only chestnut offspring.) Explain this pattern of inheritance.
In the multiple-allele series that determines coat color inrabbits, c+ encodes agouti, cch encodes chinchilla (a beigecoat color), and ch encodes Himalayan. Dominance is inthe order c+ > cch > ch. In a cross of c+/cch × cch/ch, whatproportion of progeny will be chinchilla?
In guinea pigs, short hair is dominant to long hair. Also in guinea pigs, black eyes aredominant to red eyes. A male guinea pig that is heterozygous for both traits is crossedwith a female that is long haired and red eyed. What are the expected phenotypes oftheir offspring? Provide the phenotypic ratio as well.
Erma and Harvey were a compatible barnyard pair, but a curioussight. Harvey’s tail was only 6 cm long, while Erma’s was 30 cm.Their F1 piglet offspring all grew tails that were 18 cm. Wheninbred, an F2 generation resulted in many piglets (Erma andHarvey’s grandpigs), whose tails ranged in 4-cm intervals from6 to 30 cm (6, 10, 14, 18, 22, 26, and 30). Most had 18-cm tails,while 1/64 had 6-cm tails and 1/64 had 30-cm tails. Que: Explain how these tail lengths were inherited by describingthe mode of inheritance, indicating how many gene pairswere at work, and designating the genotypes of Harvey,Erma, and their 18-cm-tail offspring.

A mouse from a true-breeding population with normal gait was crossed to a mouse displaying an oddgait called dancing. The F1 animals all showednormal gait.a. If dancing is caused by homozygosity for the recessive allele of a single gene, what proportion ofthe F2 mice should be dancers?b. If mice must be homozygous for recessive allelesof each of two different genes to have the dancing phenotype, what proportion of the F2 shouldbe dancers if the two genes are unlinked?(Assume that all the mice in the populationwith normal gait were homozygous fordominant alleles.)c. When the F2 mice were obtained, 42 normal and8 dancers were seen. Use the chi-square test todetermine if these results better fit the one-genemodel from part (a) or the two-gene model frompart (b).
