In fruit flies, eye shape is an X-linked trait. Round eyes (XG) are dominant to almond-shaped eyes (Xg). In the P generation, an almond-eyed male mates with a female that is homozygous for round eyes. What is the expected phenotype ratio (in percent) of the F2 generation from this cross? Round-eyed female: 100 75 0 50 25 Round-eyed male: 25 0 75 100 50 Almond-eyed female: 0 75 25 50 100 Almond-eyed male: 0 100 75 50 25

Individuals of genotype AaBb were mated to individuals of genotype aabb. One thousand offspring were counted, with the following results: 474 Aabb, 480 aaBb, 20 AaBb, and 26 aabb. What type of cross is it? Are these loci linked? What are the two parental classes and the two recombinant classes of offspring? What is the percentage of recombination between these two loci? How many map units apart are they?
Human sex chromosomes are XX for females and XY for males. a. With respect to an X-linked gene, how many different types of gametes can a male produce? b. If a female is homozygous for an X-linked allele, how many different types of gametes can she produce with respect to this allele? c. If a female is heterozygous for an X-linked allele, how many different types of gametes can she produce with respect to this allele?
The recessive allele s causes Drosophila to have small wings, and the s+ allele causes normal wings. This gene is known to be X linked. If a small-winged male is crossed with a homozygous wild-type female, what ratio of normal to small-winged flies can be expected in each sex in the F1? If F1 flies are intercrossed, what F2 progeny ratios are expected? What progeny ratios are predicted if F1 females are backcrossed with their father?
If the frequency of the "green" form of red-green color blindness (due to an X-linked locus) is 5 percent among males, what fraction of females would be affected? Assuming H-W equilibrium what fraction of females would be heterozygous?
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.)___
On average, what proportion of X-linked genes in the first individual are the same (inherited from a common ancestor) as those in the second individual? a. A male and his mother b. A female and her mother c. A male and his father d. A female and her father e. A male and his brother f. A female and her sister g. A male and his sister h. A female and her brother
In beetles, an X-linked gene determines body size, with normal size (M)completely dominant to miniature body size (m). Body color is determined by an autosomal gene with two alleles, where B is incompletely dominant to b such that BB beetles are black, Bb beetles are brown and bb beetles are yellow. Male beetles are heterogametic (XY). The following cross is performed: brown, miniature sized body female X brown, normal sized body male Based on this information, which of the following statements is FALSE? Select 3 correct answer(s) Question 3 options: A) 1/8 of the female progeny will have yellow miniature bodies. B) All of the male progeny will have miniature bodies. C) 1/4 of the total progeny will be black. D) 1/4 of the male progeny will have yellow miniature bodies. E) All of the female progeny will have miniature bodies.…
. Consider the imaginary trait, bristles with split-ends, a trait hypothesized to be X-linked dominant. In a cross, the P1 virgin females were homozygous wild type while the males had bristles with split-ends. The F1 84 males were all wild type while the 90 females all had split-ends. In addition, the data for the F2 generation revealed 26 wild type males, 35 wild type females, 29 split-end males and 40 split-end females. Is this what is to be expected? Use chi-square to prove your position.
In flies, assume black (B) is dominant and green (b) is recessive for abdomen color, and straight (S) is dominant and bent (s) is recessive for antenna shape. Assume also that these genes are found on the same chromosome. If single mutants for each of these genes (green abdomen x bent antenna) are crossed with one another, and you then testcross the resulting offspring, you get the following numbers of each phenotype: black, straight 17 green, bent 12 black, bent 337 green, straight 364 What is the map distance between B and S? You must show and clearly label ALL work
In snapdragons, red flower color (R) is incompletely dominant over white flower color (r), so that the heterozygote has pink flowers. A red snapdragon is crossed with a white snapdragon, and the F1 are intercrossed to produce F2. What is the genotype and phenotypes of the F1 and F2, along with their expected proportions? If the F1 are backcrossed to the white parent, what will be the expected genotype and phenotype of the offspring? If the F1 are backcrossed to the red parent and the resulting progeny are intercrossed, what is the expected proportions of genotypes and phenotypes in the progeny?
The allele for long fur (H) is dominant over the allele for short (h) fur in mice. A mouse with long fur is crossed with a short-haired mouse, producing six F1 long-haired mice and seven F1 short-haired mice. Assuming no crossover takes place, how many copies of the short-hair allele (h) will be present in each cell from an F1 long-haired mouse at the following stages?

In Drosophila, the vermilion eye color is determined by a recessive allele, v, of an X-linked gene. The wildtype color is determined by the v+ allele and causes a brick red eye color. In a cross of a heterozygous female with a wild type male you observe 340 red eye females, 136 red eye males, and 90 vermillion males. Do these results follow your expectations?
