Salamanders have a male heterogametic system for sex determinations where females are ZZ and males are ZW. The allele for the color of the tail is sex linked and the red allele is found on the W chromosome and the blue allele is found on the Z chromosome. You mate a male and female and they have 3 female offspring. What is the phenotypic ratio for tail color for their offspring? Group of answer choices 2 Blue : 1 Red 0 Blue : 3 Red 1 Blue : 2 red 3 Blue : 0 Red

In a certain breed of dogs, a gene (L) codes for hair length. The dominant trait is short hair and the recessive is long hair. Suppose a heterozygous female dog and a homozygous recessive male dog mate. What is the male dog’s genotype and the female dog’s genotype? What is the male dog’s phenotype and the female dog’s phenotype? What will be the genotypic ratio for the offspring from these dogs? What will be the phenotypic ratio for the offspring from these dogs?
There is a species of fish in which homozygous recessive (rr) individuals are Yellow and homozygous dominant (RR) individuals are Red. Color in this species of fish exhibits incomplete dominance. If we mate a homozygous dominant individual with a heterozygous individual, what is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring? Group of answer choices 2 Red : 2 Orange. 4 Red. 3 Red : 1 Yellow. 1 Red : 2 Orange : 1 Yellow.
In a species of dog, plaid color is represented by P and purple by p, short -tailed is T and long-tailed is t. What are the genotypes of a male who is purple with a long tail, and a female who is homozygous dominant for both traits? Which answer below is true? PpTT & PPTT pptt & PPTT short-tailed purple & long tailed plaid male: purple w/ long tail & female: plaid w/ short tail
What is allele frequency? How do you get the allele frequency? Give formula and cite example. Give factors that affect allele frequency.
You are studying three traits in a goldfish variety; body colour (A or a), tail length (B or b) and shape (C or c). Note: Use the uppercase letters for the alleles associated with the dominant phenotypes and the lowercase letters for the alleles associated with the recessive phenotypes. Assume that each of these traits is regulated by one gene. Photo credit https://www.petmd.com Part A. You mate a gold fish (P1) with a white fish (P2) and obtain 100 fish in F1, of which 50 are gold and 50 are white. Write two sets of the possible genotypes of the parental and the resulting F1 fish by filling in the table below. Sets P1 P2 F1 gold fish F1 white fish 1 2 Part B. You cross a true breeding gold fish having long curly tail (P3) with a true breeding gold fish having short and straight tail (P4). All of the resulting F1 fish have long straight tails. Write the genotype of the parental fish (P3 and P4) using the outlined nomenclature.…
In this family tree, individuals with the trait are shown in black. Circles represent biological females. Squares represent biological males. Is the trait dominant or recessive? Explain your answer. Is the trait sex-linked? Explain your answer.
Please read the scenario below, and then answer the question (in bold) that follows. In cats, the allele (B) produces a black coat color and the allele (b) produces a yellow coat color. These alleles are incompletely dominant to each other. A heterozygote produces a tortoise shell coat color. The alleles (B) and (b) are also sex-linked (i.e., they are carried on the X chromosome), and cats possess an XX-XY sex determination system, like humans. If a female cat with a tortoise shell coat mated with a male cat who had a yellow coat... What gametes would be produced by the female (i.e., mother) cat? a. XBXb b. XB and Xb c. B and b d. Xb and Y e. None of the above

Say you have a lab population of 1000 dragonflies that is in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium. Body color is determined by a single gene with 2 alleles. The white body color phenotype is due to the homozygous recessive phenotype. Out of the 1000 dragonflies, 250 are white. Heterozygous and homozygous dominant individuals are green. How many of the 1000 dragonflies are heterozygous? Group of answer choices 25 250 500 50 125
In guinea pigs, the gene for black coat color is dominant to the gene for white coat color. A homozygous black male guinea pig is crossed with a white female. What is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring? Group of answer choices
Make a P-generation for the two fishes below. ○ Fish 1 (Heterozygous black scales, heterozygous long tail) ○ Fish 2 (Homozygous black scales, heterozygous long tail) Then, make a Punnett square, and solve for the probability of traits that their offspring will have. Make sure that you account for both scales and tail.
In swallowtail butterflies, let's pretend that the R gene codes for coloring on the forewing. The R1 allele, which codes for red color, is dominant to the R2 allele, which codes for white color. If R1 is a recessive lethal allele, what phenotypic ratio would you expect when crossing two swallowtails with red forewings? 1 red : 2 white 1 red : 3 white 3 red : 1 white there is not enough information given to answer this question 1 red : 1 white 2 red : 1 white
