In the inheritance of sex-linked eye colour in Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly), what are the likely results (F1 generation) of a cross between a red-eyed male fly and a white-eyed female fly? Note: white-eyed is a recessive trait. Select one: All red-eyed male, all white-eyed female. All red-eyed male and female. All white-eyed male, all red-eyed female. All white-eyed male and female.

Red-green color blindness is inherited as an X-linked recessive (Xc). If a color-blind man marries a woman who is heterozygous for normal vision, what would be the expected phenotypes of their children with reference to this character? In your answer, specify in your phenotype descriptions the gender of the children. (For example, don’t just say 75% of the children would be colorblind – you would instead say 100 % of the daughters would be colorblind and 50% of the sons would be colorblind. Note that this is not a correct answer; it is just to give you an idea of how to explain the correct phenotypes of the cross.)___
Vermilion eye color in Drosophila is sex-linked and recessive. What would be the phenotypes of maleand female progenies of a cross between a vermilion female and wild-type (red) male?
In dogs, black coat color (B) is dominant to yellow coat color (b), and straight fur (C) is dominant to curly fur (c). The coat color gene and the fur texture gene are on different chromosomes, so they assort independently, and are not sex-linked. In a cross between two BbCc parents, given that an offspring has black coat color and straight fur, what's the probability that it is heterozygous for both genes? Give 2 digits past the decimals.
Red-green colorblindness in humans is recessive and x-linked. if a woman, heterozygous for colorblindness marries a colorblind man, what is the probability that they will have colorblind daughter?
In a cross involving polygenic inheritance, three (3) gene pairs control plant height. The shortest andtallest plants are 12 cm and 24 cm, respectively. What height should all F1s display if the shortest andtallest plants were crossed, assuming environmental factors are the same?
the lubber grasshopper is a very large grasshopper,and is black and red and yellow stripes.Assume that red strpes are expressed from Gr alleles,yellow stripes from the Gy allele,and no stripes from the g allele.What will be the phenotype ratio resulting from a cross of two grasshoppers,both with red and yellow stripes? what type of inheritance is occurring in this situation ?
Leaf coloration in the four-o'clock plant, Mirabilis jalapa, was one of the first examples of extranuclear inheritance. Leaves may be green, white or variegated. If ovules from a white-leafed branch are pollinated with pollen from a green-leafed branch, what phenotypes will be observed in the progeny? A. all green-leafed progeny B. white-, green- and variegated-leafed progeny C. white- and green-leafed progeny D. all white-leafed progeny
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?
You have a Drosophila line that is homozygous for autosomal recessive alleles a, b, and c, linked in that order. You cross females of this line with males homozygous for the corresponding wild-type alleles. You then cross the F1 heterozygous males with their heterozygous sisters. You obtain the following F2 phenotypes (where letters denote recessive phenotypes and pluses denote wild-type phenotypes): 1364 + + +, 365 a b c, 87 a b +, 84 + + c, 47 a + +, 44 + b c, 5 a + c, and 4 + b +.a. What is the recombinant frequency between a and b? Between b and c? (Remember, there is no crossing over in Drosophila males.)b. What is the coefficient of coincidence?
Since the white‑eye trait is X‑linked recessive, what result would you expect when crossing a heterozygous red‑eyed female with a white‑eyed male? all red‑eyed progeny In each sex, half of the offspring will have red and half of the offspring will have white eyes. all red‑eyed females with half of the males having white and half of the males having red eyes all red‑eyed females and all white‑eyed males all red‑eyed males with half of the females having white and half of the females having red eyes
In Drosophila, sepia colored eyes are due to a recessive allele s and red eyes are due to a dominant allele S. If females with sepia eyes are crossed with homozygous males with red eyes, what phenotypic proportions will F1 y F2 respectively?
In Drosophila, white eyes (w) are recessive to red eyes (w+) at one locus and black body (b) is recessive to gray body (b+). A homozygous white eyes, gray bodied female is crossed with a homozygous red eyes, black bodied male to produce the F1 progeny. The F1 progeny are testcrossed and produce the following progeny: White eyes, black body: 212 White eyes, gray body: 288 Red eyes, black body: 308 Red eyes, gray body: 192 Does the evidence indicate that w and b loci are linked? Explain why or why not? If they are linked, what is the map distance between the two loci? If they are not linked, what is the map distance between the two loci? If they are linked, are the allels in the F1 in coupling or repulsion? How do you know? Draw the genotypes of all individuals described in the problem (original parents, F1, testcross, and F2 progeny) using the appropriate notation.
