In pea plants, flower color is determined by one gene with two alleles, with the allele coding for purple flowers (P) being dominant to the allele coding for white flowers (p). If two purple-flowered offspring resulting from a cross between homozygous dominant and white-flowered parents are crossed, what percentage of the progeny are expected to have the dominant phenotype?
In guinea pigs, the gene for black coat color is dominant to the gene for white coat color. What will be the genotypic ratio for the cross between two heterozygous parents?
In pea plants, the color yellow is dominant over the color green. If a homozygous yellow plant is crossed with a heterozygous yellow plant, what will be the genotypic ratio of the offspring?
In guinea pigs, the allele for short hair is dominant. What genotype would a heterozygous short haired guinea pig have? What genotype would a purebred short haired guinea pig have? What genotype would a long haired guinea pig have?
In mice, short hair is dominant over long hair. If a heterozygous shorthaired male is crossed with a heterozygous female, what are the genotypes of the parents?
In a cross between fair skin, black hair (heterozygous for all these traits) with brown skin, red hair, what is the genotypic ratio of the offspring?
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?
If a homozygous recessive individual is crossed with a homozygous dominant individual, what percent of their offspring will be heterozygous?
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 the male has brown eyes but has a blue-eyed child, what must his genotype be?
In pea plants, the color yellow is dominant over the color green. If a homozygous yellow plant is crossed with a heterozygous yellow plant, what percentage of the plants will be green?
What is a reciprocal cross? Suppose that a gene is found as a wildtype (functional) allele and a recessive mutant (nonfunctional)allele. What would be the expected outcomes of reciprocal crossesif a true-breeding normal individual was crossed to a true-breedingindividual carrying the mutant allele? What would be the results ifthe gene is maternally inherited?
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?
