(Practice Hint: Click or tap your finger on the text box, then use the keyboard to enter your answer.) A gardener purchased 20 full-grown pea plants. All 20 were the same genotype and had purple flowers. The gardener crossed two of these plants to get seeds for the next season. The seeds from the cross produced some plants with purple- flowers and some with white flowers. The gardener learned that in pea plants the allele for purple flowers (P) is dominant over the allele for white flowers (p). What was the most likely genotype of the original 20 full-grown plants?

You have been hired to produce a family tree for three generations of a family where a disorder called “blinky” syndrome is observed. People who suffer from blinky syndrome blink their eyes rapidly when they look at bright lights. In order to draw a pedigree chart for this family, you interview Mike and Annie. Neither suffer from this syndrome. Annie’s mother is normal, while Annie’s father blinked like crazy at bright lights. Annie has one sister and one brother and both of them are unaffected. While Annie’s sister has yet to have kids, her brother married a blinky sufferer. Mike’s mother is a blinker while his father is normal. Mike’s brother is just like their mother. In addition, this brother married a blinker. Mike’s sister is normal - as is her husband and their one boy. Draw a pedigree chart below in order to answer the following on the next page. Use the letters A and a for the genotypes. If more than one genotype is possible for an individual - you may write it as A with a…

A. You cross a true-breeding sunflower, with yellow flowers and black seeds, with another true-breeding sunflower, with white flowers and green seeds. All of the F1 generation have yellow flowers and green seeds. Create allele symbols and genotypes for these genes and create a representation of this cross, which is consistent with the stated premises. Show your work. B. Upon completing an F1xF1 cross of the yellow flower, green seed sunflowers, you observe the following phenotype classes of offspring in the F2: 250 Yellow flowers and black seeds; 250 white flowers and green seeds; 500 yellow flowers and green seeds. A test cross of the yellow flower, green seed F1 generation generates the following offspring: 500 white flowers and green seeds; 500 yellow flowers and black seeds. Do these observations taken together, of the F1, F2, and test cross offspring, respectively, represent violations of Mendel's first law, Mendel's second law, or both? Explain your answer.

Pedigree analysis is a fundamental tool for investigating whether or not a trait is following a Mendelian pattern of inheritance. It can also be used to help identify individuals within a family who may be at risk for the trait. Adam and Sarah, a young couple of Eastern European Jewish ancestry, went to a genetic counselor because they were planning a family and wanted to know what their chances were for having a child with a genetic condition. The genetic counselor took a detailed family history from both of them and discovered several traits in their respective families. Sarahs maternal family history is suggestive of an autosomal dominant pattern of cancer predisposition to breast and ovarian cancer because of the young ages at which her mother and grandmother were diagnosed with their cancers. If a mutant allele that predisposed to breast and ovarian cancer was inherited in Sarahs family, she, her sister, and any of her own future children could be at risk for inheriting this mutation. The counselor told her that genetic testing is available that may help determine if this mutant allele is present in her family members. Adams paternal family history has a very strong pattern of early onset heart disease. An autosomal dominant condition known as familial hypercholesterolemia may be responsible for the large number of deaths from heart disease. As with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer, genetic testing is available to see if Adam carries the mutant allele. Testing will give the couple more information about the chances that their children could inherit this mutation. Adam had a first cousin who died from Tay-Sachs disease (TSD), a fatal autosomal recessive condition most commonly found in people of Eastern European Jewish descent. Because TSD is a recessively inherited disorder, both of his cousins parents must have been heterozygous carriers of the mutant allele. If that is the case, Adams father could be a carrier as well. If Adams father carries the mutant TSD allele, it is possible that Adam inherited this mutation. Because Sarah is also of Eastern European Jewish ancestry, she could also be a carrier of the gene, even though no one in her family has been affected with TSD. If Adam and Sarah are both carriers, each of their children would have a 25% chance of being afflicted with TSD. A simple blood test performed on both Sarah and Adam could determine whether they are carriers of this mutation. Would you decide to have a child if the test results said that you carry the mutation for breast and ovarian cancer? The heart disease mutation? The TSD mutation? The heart disease and the mutant alleles?
