In cultivated flowers called “stocks,” the recessive genotype of one locus (aa) prevents the development of pigment in the flower thus producing a white color. In the presence of the dominant allele A, alleles at another locus may be expressed as follows: B_ = red. bb = cream. a) When cream stocks of the genotype Aabb are crossed to red stocks of the genotype AaBb, what genotypic and phenotypic proportions are expected in the progeny? b) When dihybrid red stocks are crossed together, what phenotypic ratio is expected among the progeny? c) If red stocks crossed to white stocks produced progeny with red, cream and white flowers, what are the genotypes of the parents? Show the results of the cross based on your answer.
Given a cross between these two parents: BbCcDDEEFfGgHhJj x BbCcddEeFfGgHHjj where traits B, E, H, J exhibit Mendelian inheritance; C, and F exhibit incomplete dominance; D, and G exhibit co-dominance answer the following: How many possible gametes can the first individual produce? What proportion of the offspring will phenotypically resemble the first parent? What proportion of the offspring will genotypically resemble the second parent? How many phenotypes can be expected from the cross?

The lubber grasshopper is a very large grasshopper, and is black with red and yellow stripes. Assume that red stripes are expressed from the homozygous RR genotype, yellow stripes the homozygous R’R’ genotype, and both from the heterozygous genotype RR’. What will be the phenotypic ratio of the F1 generation resulting from a cross of two grasshoppers, both with red and yellow stripes? What type of of inheritance is this?
Suppose two parents, a father with the genotype AaBbccDd and a mother with the genotype aaBbCcDd, want to have children. Assume the loci are inherited independently of each other. Enter your answers as the most simplified fractions (e.g. 1/8 instead of 2/16). What proportion of the offspring are expected to have: The same genotype as the father? The same phenotype as the father? All dominant phenotypes? All recessive phenotypes?
. When Mendel crossed a large number of tall pea plants with short pea plants, all F1 plants were tall. The F2 generation was created by self-pollinating the F1 plants. Complete a genetic cross of F2 to show the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring. State the ratio of phenotypes expected in the F2 offspring. Mendel’s First Law of inheritance states that, “…the alleles of a given locus segregate into separate gametes.” Explain how the genetic diagram above proves this law. (AC 2.1) can i get help please.
A pedigree analysis was performed on the family of a man with schizophrenia. Based on the known concordance statistics, would his MZ twin be at high risk for the disease? Would the twins risk decrease if he were raised in an environment different from that of his schizophrenic brother?
As it turned out, one of the tallest Potsdam Guards had an unquenchable attraction to short women. During his tenure as guard, he had numerous clandestine affairs. In each case, children resulted. Subsequently, some of the childrenwho had no way of knowing that they were relatedmarried and had children of their own. Assume that two pairs of genes determine height. The genotype of the 7-foot-tall Potsdam Guard was A9A9B9B9, and the genotype of all of his 5-foot clandestine lovers was AABB. An A9 or B9 allele in the offspring each adds 6 inches to the base height of 5 feet conferred by the AABB genotype. a. What were the genotypes and phenotypes of all the F1 children? b. Diagram the cross between the F1 offspring, and give all possible genotypes and phenotypes of the F2 progeny
More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment Determine the possible genotypes of the following parents by analyzing the phenotypes of their children. In this case, we will assume that brown eyes (B) is dominant to blue (b) and that right-handedness (R) is dominant to left-handedness (r). a. Parents: brown eyes, right-handed brown eyes, right-handed Offspring: 3/4 brown eyes, right-handed 1/4 blue eyes, right-handed b. Parents: brown eyes, right-handed blue eyes, right-handed Offspring: 6/16 blue eyes, right-handed 2/16 blue eyes, left-handed 6/16 brown eyes, right-handed 2/16 brown eyes, left-handed c. Parents: brown eyes, right-handed blue eyes, left-handed Offspring: 1/4 brown eyes, right-handed 1/4 brown eyes, left-handed 1/4 blue eyes, right-handed 1/4 blue eyes, left-handed
Hemophilia and color blindness are both recessive conditions caused by genes on the X chromosome. To calculate the recombination frequency between the two genes, you draw a large number of pedigrees that include grandfathers with both hemophilia and color blindness, their daughters (who presumably have one chromosome with two normal alleles and one chromosome with two mutant alleles), and the daughters sons. Analyzing all the pedigrees together shows that 25 grandsons have both color blindness and hemophilia, 24 have neither of the traits, 1 has color blindness only, and 1 has hemophilia only. How many centimorgans (map units) separate the hemophilia locus from the locus for color blindness?
Two true-breeding white strains of the plantIllegitimati noncarborundum were mated, and theF1 progeny were all white. When the F1 plants wereallowed to self-fertilize, 126 white-flowered and33 purple-flowered F2 plants grew.a. How would you describe inheritance of flowercolor? Describe how specific alleles influence eachother and therefore affect phenotype.b. A white F2 plant is allowed to self-fertilize. Ofthe progeny, 3/4 are white-flowered, and 1/4 are purple-flowered. What is the genotype of the whiteF2 plant?c. A purple F2 plant is allowed to self-fertilize. Of theprogeny, 3/4 are purple-flowered, and 1/4 arewhite-flowered. What is the genotype of the purpleF2 plant?d. Two white F2 plants are crossed with each other.Of the progeny, 1/2 are purple-flowered, and 1/2are white-flowered. What are the genotypes of thetwo white F2 plants?
. A sex-linked recessive allele c produces a red–green color blindness in humans. A normal woman whose father was color blind marries a color-blind mana. What genotypes are possible for the mother of the color-blind man? b. What are the chances that the first child from this marriage will be a color-blind boy? c. Of the girls produced by these parents, what proportion can be expected to be color blind? d. Of all the children (sex unspecified) of these parents, what proportion can be expected to have normal color vision?
