In corn, a certain gene cause the kernels to turn red when exposed to sunlight. The trait is known as sun-red (c*). An allele of this gene has been found that causes a very pale red trait called dilute sun-red (cd). Still a 3rd allele causes a less intense red to develop- the trait is known as weak sun-red (c) The following results were obtained from these crosses: Cross sun-red x dilute sun-red x weak weak x dilute Show the dominance relationships among these alleles. all sun-red all sun-red all weak F1 984 sun-red: 314 dilute 66 sun-red: 16 weak 1,300 weak: 429 dilute F2

When a white guinea pig is crossed to a yellow guinea pig, all the progeny are cream-colored. From a cross of two such F1’s, the F2 showed 32 white, 66 cream, and 30 yellow guinea pigs. How is this trait inherited? _______________ Identify the genotype of the white guinea pig. ________ Identify the genotype of the yellow guinea pig. ________ Identify the genotype of the cream-colored guinea pig. ________ Identify the genotypes and the corresponding phenotypes of the F2 progeny. Give the genotypic ratio. __________________ Give the phenotypic ratio. ___________________
The Labrador Retriever’s coat colours are black, yellow, and chocolate.Yellow is produced by the presence of a recessive epistatic gene, which has the effect of masking the black and chocolate colour genes. Black (B) is dominant to chocolate (b).Therefore, the possible genotypes and corresponding phenotypes are: Phenotype Possible Genotypes Black G__B__ Brown G__bb Yellow gg__ Predict the percentage of offspring that would be black in colour for each of the following crosses.

A. You cross a true-breeding sunflower, with yellow flowers and black seeds, with another true-breeding sunflower, with white flowers and green seeds. All of the F1 generation have yellow flowers and green seeds. Create allele symbols and genotypes for these genes and create a representation of this cross, which is consistent with the stated premises. Show your work. B. Upon completing an F1xF1 cross of the yellow flower, green seed sunflowers, you observe the following phenotype classes of offspring in the F2: 250 Yellow flowers and black seeds; 250 white flowers and green seeds; 500 yellow flowers and green seeds. A test cross of the yellow flower, green seed F1 generation generates the following offspring: 500 white flowers and green seeds; 500 yellow flowers and black seeds. Do these observations taken together, of the F1, F2, and test cross offspring, respectively, represent violations of Mendel's first law, Mendel's second law, or both? Explain your answer.

In pedigrees, individuals are usually specified by using a Roman numeral for their generation in the chart and an Arabic number for their position (reading left to right) within that generation. If we use the letter c for the allele that causes cystic fibrosis, what are the genotypes of individuals III-3 and III-4 (the third and fourth individuals shown in generation III) in the pedigree that shows this disease?
PLEASE SHOW THE CROSSES USING PROBABILITY RULE In guinea pigs, rough coat (R) is dominant over smooth (r), and black coat (B) is dominant over white (b). If a pure-breeding rough, black animal is crossed with a smooth white one: What will be the appearance of the F1 progeny? The F2?
The following cross is set: DDEeFFggHh X DdEEFfGGhh a. What is the maximum number of additive alleles possible in their offspring? b. What is the maximum number of non-additive alleles possible in their offspring?
Two pure-breeding strains of flies are mated, and the F1 are intercrossed. The first strain has curled wings and black bodies. The second strain has straight wings and brown bodies. The F2 progeny are 271 straight wings with brown bodies, 31 curled wings with black bodies, 94 curled wings with brown bodies and 90 straight wings with black bodies. If instead of the above, assume the wing shape gene and the body color gene are completely linked. From parents that are curled winged with brown bodies mated to straight winged with black bodies, what would be the outcome of an F1 intercross? (Specify the phenotypes and the frequency of each expected).
The tiny blue-eyed Mary flower is often one of the first flowers seen in the spring in some regions of the United States. The flower is normally blue, but sometimes a white or pink flower variation is found. The following data were obtained after several crosses. A student claims that these flower colors are an inherited trait, and the F1 and F2 phenotypes of the flowers arising from the pink and white cross can best be explained by epistasis, where another gene product influences phenotype expression. This data supports this claim because in order to produce a __________ (pink, white, or blue) flower, a gene for a switch that 'turns on' the color gene would be recessive, meaning it has a mutation that causes it to be 'off'. In order to express a color, this switch needs to be in the dominant form. The color gene is a structural gene that has two variants: a dominant trait, ______ (pink, white, or blue) and a recessive _______ (pink, white, or blue) variety.
In tomatoes, tall (D) is dominant over dwarf (d) and smooth fruit (P) is dominant over pubescent fruit (p), which is covered with fine hairs. A farmer has two tall and smooth tomato plants, which we will call plant A and plant B. The farmer crosses plants A and B with the same dwarf and pubescent plant and obtains the following numbers of progeny: Q. Explain why different proportions of progeny are produced when plant A and plant B are crossed with the same dwarf pubescent plant.
In the tomato, yellow flowers (Y) is dominant to white flowers (y). A true-breeding yellow flowered strain is crossed with a true-breeding white flowered strain.A.
