In domesticated cats, the following are Independently assorting: Normal ears (T) is dominant to tufted ears (t); Curved whiskers (C) is dominant to straight whiskers (c); The presence of six toes (S) is dominant to five toes (s); Gene for hair length is an X-linked codominant. The three phenotypes for hair length are long (XHXH), medium (XHX"), and short (X*X"); medium is the heterozygous condition. Given two parents: TtccSSXHxh x TtCcSsXHY a) How many different gametes could be formed in the female cat with respect to these four traits? b) How many different phenotypes are possible in the offspring from this mating?

Anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia is an X-linked recessive disorder in humans characterized by small teeth, no sweat glands, and sparse body hair. This trait is usually seen in men, but women who are heterozygous carriers of the trait often have irregular patches of skin with few or no sweat glands (see the illustration below). Q. Why does the distribution of the patches of skin lacking sweat glands differ among the females depicted in the illustration, even between the identical twins?
The following X-linked recessive traits are found in fruit flies:vermilion eyes are recessive to red eyes, miniature wings are recessiveto long wings, and sable body is recessive to gray body. A cross wasmade between wild-type males with red eyes, long wings, and graybodies and females with vermilion eyes, miniature wings, and sablebodies. The heterozygous female offspring from this cross, whichhad red eyes, long wings, and gray bodies, were then crossed tomales with vermilion eyes, miniature wings, and sable bodies.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an X-linked, recessive disorder in which muscles waste away early in life, resulting in death in the teens or twenties. A man and woman in their late thirties have five children—three boys (ages 1, 3, and 10 years) and two girls (ages 5 and 7 years). The oldest, boy shows symptoms of the disease. What are the probabilities that their other children will develop the disease? Give only typing answer with explanation and conclusion
Red-green colorblindness is determined in humans by a single X-linked locus. Colorblind males are XbY, and males with normal vision are XBY. XB is dominant, so XBXB and XBXb females have normal vision, while XbXb females are colorblind. Typically, 8% of males are red-green colorblind. Assuming H-W equilibrium, what percentage of females is typically colorblind?
Red-green color blindness is inherited as an X-linked recessive (Xc). If a color-blind man marries a woman who is heterozygous for normal vision, what would be the expected phenotypes of their children with reference to this character? In your answer, specify in your phenotype descriptions the gender of the children. (For example, don’t just say 75% of the children would be colorblind – you would instead say 100 % of the daughters would be colorblind and 50% of the sons would be colorblind. Note that this is not a correct answer; it is just to give you an idea of how to explain the correct phenotypes of the cross.)___

You discover a new X-linked mutation for antenna shape in Drosophila (fruit flies) which produces long antennae. You call this new allele long (XL2), and discover it is incompletely dominant with the short antennae allele (XL1), so the heterozygotes (XL1XL2) have antennae that are intermediate in length (and XL2 homozygote females have long antennae). Males only have either long or short antennae. You cross a female with long antennae with a male with short antennae. What proportion of their male offspring do you expect to have short antennae?

Imagine that you set up a three-point mapping cross to determine the order of three X-linked genes. You have recessive mutations available for all three genes: yellow, white, and echinus. A heterozygous F1 Drosophila female is crossed to hemizygous mutant male. The observed numbers and phenotypes of F2 are as follows. 4685 yellow, white, echinus 4759 wild type 80 yellow 70 white, echinus 193 yellow, white 207 Echinus 3yellow, echinus 3white Based on this data which of the above phenotypic classes represent the double crossing over?
