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 ?
In Labrador retrievers, some puppies have pink noses and some have black. Labrador retrievers with black fur almost always have black noses. What type of inheritance pattern is this? Explain how this is possible.
In humans, brown eyes are dominant to blue eyes, and the ability to roll your tongue is dominant to not being able to roll your tongue. If a mother who was heterozygous for eye colour and homozygous recessive for tongue rolling had a baby with a father that was heterozygous for both traits, what is the probability that their child would have blue eyes and could roll their tongue?
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 blue is recessive, what must the woman’s genotype be?
Hair texture is determined by gene c in an incomplete dominance inheritance pattern, where the heterozygous condition (c1c2) results in wavy hair. Hairline is controlled by gene H, where a widow's peak is dominant to a straight hairline. If a woman with curly hair and a straight hairline has a child with a man with a widow's peak and straight hair (his mom had a straight hairline), what is the chance they would have a kid that has exactly the same hair as mom? Draw the Punnett square and demonstrate the possible genotypes and phenotypes that could result from these two parents' mating.
Holstein cattle suffer from the condition citrullinemia, in which homozygous recessive calves die within a week of birth because they cannot break down ammonia that is produced when amino acids are metabolized. If a cow that is heterozygous for the citrullinemia gene is inseminated by a bull that is homozygous dominant, what is the probability that a calf inherits citrullinemia?
In horses, coat color comes in many varieties. If a brown horse is crossed with a white horse, the offspring are palominos (brown and white manes and tails). Name the type of inheritance. If a palomino horse is crossed with a white horse, what will the phenotype ratio of the F1 be?
Skin color in humans is determined by polygenic inheritance, which means the more dominant alleles there are, the darker the skin color will be. A medium-toned skinned woman (AaBb) has a child with another medium-toned skinned man (AaBb). What is the probability of them having a very dark-toned skinned child? (Hint: the genotype is homozygous dominant)
In a breed of mice fur coat color is determined by two genes. For coat color BB results in black, BT results in black with tan spots and TT results in tan. However, to have coat color there must be at least one dominant allele of gene A where aa is white (no color). (a)For each trait, give the type of inheritance demonstrated. Color of fur and if there is color. A (1) tan mouse heterozygous for coat color is crossed with a (2) Black and tan spotted mouse that is homozygous for color (b) What is the genotype of the two parents involved in the cross? (c) When crossed, what is the chance of getting a tan mouse? Show your work (you may either use a Punnett square or Fork method).
In certain species of horses, a roan coat color (mixed red and white hairs) occurs in the heterozygous (Rr) offspring of red (RR) and white (rr) homozygotes. Which type type of inheritance does this example represent?
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?
If you are working to solve for the relative distances between a cat's genes for fur color, where gene X has alleles X and x and gene Y has alleles Y and y that follow an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance, which test-cross should you perform to determine a genetic map? A. XxYy x XxYy B. XXYY x xxyy C. XxYy x xxYy D. XxYy x xxyy
