In some bizarre-feathered chickens, F is the trait for frizzled feathers while S is the trait for straight feathers. Since both traits are appears to be dominant, what proportion of the offspring would likely show straight feathers? Construct the punnet square and indentify the following: Parents’ genes?

Brown fur vs white fur. Say that the alleles for fur color (brown or white) are written using the letter “B” and “b”. The dominant trait is brown, white fur color represents the recessive trait. How would you write out a homozygous dominant individual?
What would be the phenotypic and genotypic ratio in F2 generation of the offspring of two parents? One parent is homozygously dominant for height and the other parent is recessive or height.
A gardener received a pea plant from her neighbor, and she wants to know its genotype. The neighbor told her it produces round peas, which is a dominant trait (R) to wrinkled peas (r). The gardener performs a test cross and observes that half of the offspring plants produce wrinkled peas. What is the genotype of the plant she received from her neighbor?) homozygous recessive, rr heterozygous, Rr homozygous dominant, RR In pea plants, the allele for round peas (R) is dominant to the allele for wrinkled peas (r). A gardener has a plant he got from his neighbor that produces round peas, but he does not know its genotype. What simple procedure could he do to determine the genotype of his new plant?) Perform a dihybrid cross—if only 1 out of 16 offspring are wrinkled, then the new plant’s genotype is RR. Perform a test cross with a plant that has an Rr genotype—if all of the offspring give round seeds, then the new plant’s genotype is Rr. Perform a test cross…
In a certain breed of dogs, a gene (L) codes for hair length. The dominant trait is short hair and the recessive is long hair. Suppose a heterozygous female dog and a homozygous recessive male dog mate. What is the male dog’s genotype and the female dog’s genotype? What is the male dog’s phenotype and the female dog’s phenotype? What will be the genotypic ratio for the offspring from these dogs? What will be the phenotypic ratio for the offspring from these dogs?
In a species of dog, plaid color is represented by P and purple by p, short -tailed is T and long-tailed is t. What are the genotypes of a male who is purple with a long tail, and a female who is homozygous dominant for both traits? Which answer below is true? PpTT & PPTT pptt & PPTT short-tailed purple & long tailed plaid male: purple w/ long tail & female: plaid w/ short tail
In aliens, blue skin is dominant and green skin is recessive. Round bodies are dominant and square bodies are recessive. An alien who is heterozygous for both characteristics is mated with another alien who is purebred for both recessive traits. What is the percent chance of having blue, square-bodied offspring?
Many farmers prefer cattle without horns because it is safer for their herds. The allele for no horns (N) is dominant to the allele for the presence of horns (n). A farmer mates a male with horns to a heterozygous female without horns. What is the chance that the offspring will have horns? Construct the punnet square Parents’ genes? Parents’ traits? Genes (genotype)? Horn (phenotype)? Genotypic ratio? Phenotypic ratio?
In humans, brown eyes are dominant to blue eyes, and the ability to roll your tongue is dominant to not being able to roll your tongue. If a mother who was heterozygous for eye colour and homozygous recessive for tongue rolling had a baby with a father that was heterozygous for both traits, what is the probability that their child would have blue eyes and could roll their tongue?
In Vulcans, black hair and pointy ears are dominant traits. Pollar has black hair but rounded ears. Damak, his mate, has red hair and pointed ears. Their first child, T’Pal, has red hair and rounded ears. Their second child, Spock, has black hair and pointed ears. Use EE or Ee for pointed ears and BB or Bb for black hair and answer the following: What is Pollar’s genotype? Group of answer choices a. BbEe b. Bbee e. BBee d. BBEe
In giraffes, long neck is dominant to short neck. Long neck is denoted by the dominant allele, N, while short neck is denoted by a recessive allele, n. Write the genotype and phenotype for the following organisms: homozygous dominant organism, homozygous recessive organism, and heterozygous organism.
In humans, hair color and structure are determined by two independent pairs of genes. The dominant gene T determines dark hair color, and the recessive allele t - light hair; The dominant gene S determines the formation of curly hair, and its recessive allele t - straight hair. What kind of hair will the children have if the mother has light, straight hair, and the father has dark, curly hair (one of the pairs of traits is heterozygous for both parents)?
