Stefanie is a young farmer growing new and heritage pumpkins. In her rows of pumpkins she finds a dark orange pumpkin with warts and a green pumpkin with smooth skin. She knows that orange skin color is dominant in pumpkins, but she cannot find any information on the inheritance of warty skin in pumpkins. She decides to cross the pumpkins to determine if warty skin is a dominant or recessive trait. If you hypothesize that warty skin is the dominant trait... -Then, based on your hypothesis, predict the results of the F1 and F2 dihybrid crosses between the orange warty pumpkin snd the green smooth pumpkin. (Assume these pumpkins are homozygous for both traits.

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.
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?
Caleb has a double row of eyelashes, which he inherited from his mother as a dominant trait. His maternal grandfather is the only other relative to have the trait. Veronica, a woman with normal eyelashes, falls madly in love with Caleb, and they marry. Their first child, Polly, has normal eyelashes. What chance does a child of Veronica and Caleb have of inheriting double eyelashes? please include a punnett square
In humans, having freckles is dominant to not having freckles. What is the phenotype of a homozygous recessive?
For a recessive condition, two normal heterozygous individuals have children. What is the likelihood of their children being affected by this condition? What is the likelihood of their children being carriers without the condition? What is the likelihood of their asymptomatic children being carriers? Suppose that an individual with the condition has children with a heterozygous individual, what is the likelihood of their children being carriers?
Albinism is a recessive disorder where there is a lack of melanin. Andrea and her husband Claude both have normal skin pigmentation. Andrea’s mother has the albino phenotype, but her father and her brother do not (normal pigmentation). Claude’s parents are both normal, but he has a sister who has the condition (is albino). Answer the following questions If Andrea and Claude are carriers for the albino allele, what is the probability that they have an albino child? If Andrea and Claude have a second child, what is the probability this child be normal (non-albino)? NOTE: Draw a punnet square or show your work.
Read the following family history and draw a pedigree to determine the inheritance pattern for achondroplasia. Once the pedigree is assembled , label the genotypes of each individual using a capital "A to represent the dominant allele and a lower case "a " to represent the recessive allele and create a key to identify which version is the achondroplasia allele. If you are unsure of the genotype , label the individual with a "" in place of the unknown allele. Family History : Jada and Noel , both of short stature, have been married for twenty years. They have three children : an eighteen - year-old boy named Shawn , of short stature ; a fifteen- year- old boy named John , of short stature ; and a twelve -year -old girl named Ann , of average height Noel and Jada also had a male child bom with severe achondroplasia who died six months after birth from respiratory failure . Noel's father was of short stature , while his mother was average height . Noel has a brother and a…
A young couple went to see a genetic counselor because each had a sibling affected with cystic fibrosis. (Cystic fibrosis is a recessive disease and neither member of the couple nor any of their four parents is affected). What is the probability that the female of this couple is a carrier and what are the chances that their child will be affected with cystic fibrosis?
Gregor Mendel discovered the basis of heredity with his sweet pea plant experiments. In his studies, he determined that certain traits, such as pod color and pea shape, express complete dominance. A cross occurs between a plant with heterozygous yellow pods and wrinkled peas and a plant with green pods and heterozygous round peas. What is the probability that the offspring will exhibit recessive genes for both traits? A - 1/2B - 1/4C - 1/8D - 1/16
Above is a pedigree for colorblindness. Based on the pedigree, is the disease dominant or recessive and is it sex-linked or autosomal? Why? Furthermore, what is the probability that 18 on this chart is affected but the condition, and what is the probability that 18 is a carrier? Why? Are the probability of being a carrier and an affected individual different? Why
In humans brown eye color is dominant to blue eye color. Suppose that your mother is homozygous and your father is heterozygous and you have brown eyes. If you have a child with blue eyes, what is your genotype?
Two sisters have a father who is homozygous for his recessive blue eyes and a mother who is dominant for her heterozygous brown eyes. One sister has blue eyes, and the other has brown eyes. Which of the following explains the difference in the eye color of the sisters?
