In humans, Tongue roller and widows peak are dominant over non-tongue roller and straight hairline. A heterozygote in both regards (for both tongue roller and hairline) reproduces with a similar heterozygote (they have the same genotype as the other parent). What is the chance of any one child having the same phenotypes as the parents? (You will need to do the cross and count up the offspring phenotypes and give a percentage such as 8/16 = 50%)

If body-color B is dominant to green body color b what would the genotype be for a heterozygous individual be? Using the blue B and a green b body color from above create a Punit square that represents the offspring of two heterozygous parents? what is the probability that they will have a child with a green body-color If the child is green what is its genotype? Cross a green parent with a homozygous blue parent. What color will their kids be?
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?
Imagine a cross between a man and a woman having the following genotypes: Genotype of the Husband Genotype of the Wife Aa bb Dd Gg Hh RR Tt X Aa Bb Dd gg Hh Rr Tt Assuming that the dominant allele in each gene pair exhibits complete dominance over the recessive allele, what is the probability that this couple would have a daughter who exhibits the recessive phenotype with respect to all seven of the gene pairs?
In snapdragons, heterozygotes for one of the genes have pink flowers, whereas homozygotes have red (R) or white (r) flowers. When plants with red flowers are crossed with plants with white flowers, what proportion/probability of the offspring will have pink flowers? Create a Punnett square.
In corn plants, a dominant allele Z inhibits kernel color, while the recessive allele z permits color when homozygous. At a different locus, the dominant allele X causes purple kernel color, while the homozygous recessive genotype causes red kernel color. If corn plants heterozygous for both the Z and X genes are crossed, what are the chances that the offspring will have purple kernels? Enter your answer as a decimal fraction in the box (e.g. 0.25).
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?
A pea plant is heterozygous for both pod shape and color. I is the allele for dominant, inflated pod; i is the allele for recessive, constricted pod. G is the allele for dominant, green pod; g is the allele for recessive, yellow color characteristic. Suppose this plant is crossed with a homozygous pea with inflated, green pod, what will be the possible genotype of the offspring? Construct the punnet square, then identify the following: 1. Parents’ genes?2. Parents’ traits?3. Genes (genotype)?4. Shape, color? (phenotype)?5. Genotypic ratio?6. Phenotypic ratio?
Imagine a cross between a man and a woman having the following genotypes: Genotype of the Husband Genotype of the Wife Aa bb Dd Gg Hh RR Tt X Aa Bb Dd gg Hh Rr Tt Suppose, that the A allele exhibited incomplete dominance over the a allele and the T allele exhibited incomplete dominance over the t allele. In that instance, how many different phenotypes would be possible among the offspring of this same couple?
In mice, the presence of AA alleles give rise to the agouti fur color, AAY gives rise to a yellow fur color, and AYAY is lethal, causing mice to die before birth. The B allele results in pigment formation and is dominant over the b allele. The bb genotype results in no pigment formation and gives an albino fur color irrespectively of the presence of the AA or AAY alleles. In the following cross between a yellow and agouti mice, what would be the expected proportion of agouti fur mice among the live offspring? AAY Bb X AA Bb 1/2 1/4 3/8 1/3 3/4
If a man with dark skin whose genotype is AaBB reproduces with a woman who has light skin (aaBb), what are the possible skin colors that their children will have? Develop a Punnett square and list the possible genotypes & phenotypes. For your convenience, a table is presented below that shows several possible genotypes & phenotypes: Genotypes Phenotypes AABB Very dark skin AABb or AaBB Dark skin AaBb, AAbb, or aaBB Medium brown skin Aabb or aaBb Light skin aabb Very light skin
In rabbits, black hair is due to a dominant allele B and brown hair to its recessive allele b. Short hair (H) is dominant to long hair (h). In a cross between a homozygous black, longhaired rabbit and a brown, homozygous shorthaired one, what would the F1 generation look like? If you did not know the genotype of an F1 rabbit, you could determine its genotype by a test cross in which it is crossed with an animal with which phenotype AND genotype If you carried out this test cross, what phenotypes and in what ratio would you expect? What phenotypes in what ratio would be expected in the F2 generation?
