In rabbits, black hair is due to a dominant allele B and brown hair to its recessive allele b. Short hair (H) is dominant to long hair (h). Show punnet squares In a cross between a homozygous black, longhaired rabbit and a brown, homozygous shorthaired one, what would the F1 generation look like? If you did not know the genotype of an F1 rabbit, you could determine its genotype by a test cross in which it is crossed with an animal with which phenotype AND genotype? If you carried out this test cross (from 2, using the F1 from 1), what phenotypes and in what ratio would you expect? What phenotypes in what ratio would be expected in the F2 generation of the cross in point 1?
In the shorthorn breed of cattle, The red and white coat colors are codominant with each other with the resulting hit rosagas condition being roan. A breeder has some white, some Roan, and some red cattle (female) And only one round bull (male). A. What color cow would be bread to the ro bowl to guarantee the best chance of having white offspring? B. What is the probability of a red cow cross with the Roan bull resulting in a white half? explain by using parent and possible offspring genotypes. C. What is one possible way that the farmer can guarantee having over red offspring by going outside of his breeding stock? Explain by using parent and possible offspring genotypes.
In a dihybrid cross of two bi-allelic Mendelian genes, A (two alleles – completely dominant A and recessive a), and B (two alleles – completely dominant B and recessive b), such that the parental generation comprises of pure-bred homozygotes (i.e. AABB with aabb), what are the expected genotype and phenotype ratios in the F1 and F2, if the F1 cross is (a) an intercross and if the F1 cross is (b) a testcross
Given a cross between these two parents: BbCcDDEEFfGgHhjj x BbCcddEeFfGgHHjj where traits B, E, H, J exhibit Mendelian inheritance; C, and F exhibit incomplete dominance; D, and G exhibit co-dominance answer the following: How many phenotypes can be expected from the cross?
In cattle, coat color is controlled by two codominant alleles. One allele produces a red coat, (R), and one produces a white coat, (W). A cow with heterozygous alleles will have a roan coat. In the same breed of cattle not having horns, (N), is completely dominant over the presence of horns, (n). What phenotype and genotypes would be expected from a cross between a roan, horned bull and a hornless red cow that is a carrier for the horned allele. Show the Punnett square
Three genes in fruit flies affect a particular trait, andone dominant allele of each gene is necessary to get awild-type phenotype.a. What phenotypic ratios would you predict amongthe progeny if you crossed triply heterozygous flies?b. You cross a particular wild-type male in successionwith three tester strains. In the cross with one testerstrain (AA bb cc), only 1/4 of the progeny are wildtype. In the crosses involving the other two testerstrains (aa BB cc and aa bb CC), half of the progeny are wild type. What is the genotype of thewild-type male?

In a species of tropical fish, a colorful orange andblack variety called montezuma occurs. When twomontezumas are crossed, 2/3 of the progeny are montezuma and 1/3 are the wild-type, dark grayish greencolor. Montezuma is a single-gene trait, and montezuma fish are never true-breeding.a. Explain the inheritance pattern seen here and showhow your explanation accounts for the phenotypicratios given.b. In this same species, the morphology of the dorsalfin is altered from normal to ruffled by homozygosity for a recessive allele designated f. What progenywould you expect to obtain, and in what proportions, from the cross of a montezuma fish homozygous for normal fins to a green, ruffled fish?c. What phenotypic ratios of progeny would be expected from the crossing of two of the montezumaprogeny from part (b)?
In the California poppy, an allele for yellow flowers (C) is dominant over an allele for white flowers (c). At an independently assorting locus, an allele for entire petals (F) is dominant over an allele for fringed petals (f). A plant that is homozygous for yellow and entire petals is crossed with a plant that has white and fringed petals. A resulting F1 plant is then crossed with a plant that has white and fringed petals, and thefollowing progeny are produced: 54 yellow and entire; 58 yellow and fringed; 53 white and entire; and 10 white and fringed. Q. Use a chi-square test to compare the observed numbers of progeny having each phenotype with those expected for the cross
