In guinea pigs, a black coat (B) is dominant over a white coat (b), and straight hair (S) is dominant over curly hair (s). The genes for coat color and type of hair are located on different chromosomes. A heterozygous, black, and straight hair guinea pig (BbSs) was test crossed. A guinea pig heterozygous for both traits mated with a homozygous recessive guinea pig. What is the probability of having offspring with at least one dominant trait? Select one: a. 0.50 b. 0.00 c. 0.25 d. 0.75 e. 1.0

The following pedigree shows the pattern of inheritance of red-green color blindness in a family. Females are shown as circles and males as squares; the squares or circles of individuals affected by the trait are filled in black. What is the chance that a son of the third-generation female indicated by the arrow will be color blind if the father is not color blind? If he is color blind?
Guinea pigs have coats that are either rough or smooth. Rough coats are dominant, so they are represented by (R), and smooth coats are recessive, so they are represented by (r). If we crossed a homozygous rough-coated guinea pig with a smooth-coated guinea pig, what are the phenotypic and genotypic ratios?
In rabbits, the dominant allele B causes black fur and the recessive allele b causes brown fur; for an independently assorting gene, the dominant allele R causes long fur and the recessive allele r (for rex) causes short fur. A homozy-gous rabbit with long, black fur is crossed with a rabbit with short, brown fur, and the offspring are intercrossed. In the F2, what proportion of the rabbits with long, black fur will be homozygous for both genes? Is there a faster way to do this than to write every genotype out?
Thimble foxes cook color is controlled by a single gene while tail length is controlled by a separate Gene. Red coat is dominant to white coat and long tails are dominant to short tails, dominant is complete. Thimble fox one has a red coat and a long tail, its mother had a white coat and short tail. Thimble fox two has a white coat and long tail, its father had a short tail. Complete the punnets square for this cross and give the phenotypic ratio of the offspring. If there is a dominant allele for this first Street, place the gamete in the first give me a position. Then state the Phenotypic ratio.
In cattle, coat color is inherited in a co-dominant fashion. Homozygous C R C R produces red coat,homozygous C W C W produces white coat, and the heterozygous C R C W produces roan-colored coat.What is the probability of having a roan-coated offspring in a cross between a white-coated cattle anda roan-coated cattle?
In guinea pigs, black hair is dominant over white hair. If a homozygous black guinea pig (father) were crossed with a homozygous white guinea pig (mother), the first generation of offspring would be all black.Match the mother's and father's genotypes and phenotypes to their correct description. 1. mother's phenotype 2. father's phenotype 3. father's genotype 4. mother's genotype a. black b.

Coat color in mice is influenced by two genes, one for color (A) and one for the amount of pigment production (C). Mice with the wild type agouti coat color have a yellowish to brownish color. Mice also have a gene that determines the amount of pigment the hair produces. Mouse Coat Phenotype and Genotype Correlation Agouti coat AA, Aa Solid gray/black coat aa Pigment production CC, Cc Albinism cc Multiple crosses were made between male and female mice that were each heterozygous for both traits (AaCc). The data table shows the number of mice of each coat type. Calculate the average F1 generation coat color to answer the question.

In rabbits, the dominant allele B causes black fur and the recessive allele b causes brown fur; for an independently assorting gene, the dominant allele R causes long fur and the recessive allele r causes short fur. A homozygous rabbit with long, black fur is crossed with a rabbit with short, brown fur, and the offspring are intercrossed. In the F2, what proportion of the rabbits with long, black fur will be homozygous for both genes? Show drawings and solution.
If a pure breeding(homozygous) black(dominant), longhaired (recessive) cat is made of pure breeding Siamese, shorthaired cat, and one of their male offspring has made it to one of their female offspring, what is the chance of producing a Siamese colored shorthair kitten?
. In garden peas, yellow (Y) seed color is dominant to green (y). Because yellow and green are two different forms of the same gene (seed color), they are alleles. Use a Punnett square to show a cross between two heterozygous pea plants. What are the phenotype(s) of the offspring? What are the genotype(s) of the offspring?
In humans, brown eyes (B) are dominant over blue. A brown eyed man marries a blue-eyed (b) woman and they have three children two of whom are brown-eyed and one of whom is blue-eyed. if blue is recessive, what must the woman’s genotype be?
In pea plants, seed shape and seed color are controlled by genes located on different chromosomes. Seeds may be round (R) or wrinkled (r), with the allele for round seeds being dominant. Alleles for seed color are yellow and green, with the green allele (y) recessive to the yellow (Y) allele. If you cross an individual that is homozygous round and yellow with an individual that is homozygous for wrinkled and green, what is the genotype of the F1 individuals? Set up a Punnett square for the dihybrid cross.
