In mice the autosomal genotype yy is for gray fur, YY is for brown fur and Yy is for yellow fur. What is the ratio of offspring from the cross between a brown mouse and a yellow mouse? ABO blood groups, an autosomal trait, in Humans are genetically determined. A woman with type O blood has a son with type O. What are the possible genotype(s) of the son, his mother and possible father?                 Mother:                Father:                 Son: Polydactylism (extra digits) is due to a dominant autosomal allele, what is the likelihood that a couple with the normal number of digits have a son with polydactylism? Flower color in snapdragons is due to a gene with incomplete dominance: CRCR plants have red flowers, CRCW have pink flowers, and CWCW plants have white flowers. Which cross is expected to yield progeny that all have pink flowers? A couple is expressing a child, the man has hemophilia (a sex-linked blood disorder due to a recessive allele) and the woman is a carrier for this disorder. If they have a daughter, what is the likelihood that she will inherit hemophilia?
