Suppose in a strain of soybeans, high oil (H) content in the seeds is dominant to low oil content and four seeds (E) in a pod is dominant to two seeds in a pod. A farmer crosses two soybean plants, both with high oil content and four seeds per pod. The resulting F1 offspring have a phenotypic ratio of 9:3:3:1 (High oil/four seeds: High oil/ two seeds: Low oil / four seeds : Low oil / two seeds). What genotype were the parent plants?

Suppose that goats have one gene that codes for color, where A is brown and a is white. The goats also have another gene that codes for height, where B is tall and b is short. If these two genes are unlinked, what is the probability that a cross between Aa Bb × Aa bb parents will produce two out of six offspring that are brown and short? Provide answer as a decimal, rather than as a percentage.
Suppose a species of tulip has three alleles for the gene that codes for flower color. The CR allele produces red tulips, the CB allele produces blue tulips, and the CW allele produces white tulips. Both CR and CB are dominant over CW, but CR and CB are incompletely dominant with each other, so CRCB heterozygotes have purple flowers. What is the expected phenotypic ratio in the offspring of the following crosses, in the order red : blue : purple : white? Enter your answers as the most simplified ratio (e.g. 1 : 2 : 1 : 1 instead of 2 : 4 : 2 : 2). Enter 0 if none of the offspring from a cross will be a particular color. CRCB × CBCW _____ red : ______blue : ______purple : ______white CRCB × CRCW - _______red : _____blue : _____purple : _____white CRCW × CBCW - _____red : _____blue : _____purple : _____white CRCB × CRCB - red : blue : purple : white
Imagine you are Performing a cross involving seed color in garden pea plants. What F1 offspring would you expect if you cross true-breeding parents with green seeds and yellow seeds? Yellow seed color is dominant over green.

Yellow seed color is dominant over green. a. 100 percent yellow-green seeds b. 100 percent yellow seeds c. 50 percent yellow, 50 percent green seeds d. 25 percent green, 75 percent yellow seeds
Draw a table that shows all possible combinations of offspring resulting from a dihybrid cross of pea plants that are heterozygous for the tall/dwarf and inflated/constricted allele.
In certain plants, tall is dominant to short. If a heterozygous plant is crossed with a homozygous tall plant, what is the probability that the offspring will be short? 1 0 1 ½ ¼
Suppose that goats have one gene that codes for color, where A is brown and a is white. The goats also have another gene that codes for height, where B is tall and b is short. If these two genes are unlinked, what is the probability that a cross between Aa Bb × Aa bb parents will produce three out of five offspring that are white and tall? Enter your answer as a decimal, rather than as a percentage
In a genetic cross between a homozygous tall plant with homozygous purple flowers and a homozygous short plant with heterozygous purple flowers, how many short plants will you expect in the F2 generation if you sample 36 individuals? Both tall and purple are dominant.
In pea plants, tall plants are dominant over short plants. What is the genotypic percentage of offspring resulting from a cross between a heterozygous tall plant and another heterozygous tall. 75% tall; 25% short 75% TT; 25% tt 50% tall; 50% short 25% TT; 50% Tt; 25% tt
In oats, the color of the chaff is determined by a two-gene interaction. When a true-breeding black chaff plant was crossed to a truebreeding white chaff plant, the F1 generation was composed of allblack chaff plants. When the F1 offspring were crossed to eachother, the ratio produced was 12 black to 3 gray to 1 white. First,construct a Punnett square that accounts for this pattern of inheritance. Which genotypes produce the gray chaff phenotype? Second,at the level of protein function, how would you explain this type ofinheritance?
Imagine you are performing a cross involving gerden pea plants. What F1 offspring would you expect if you cross plants with green seedsand plants that are homozygous for the yellow seed colo allele? -yellow seed is dominant over green 100 percent yellow - green sedds 100 percent yellow seeds 50 percent yellow, 50 percent green seeds 25 percent green, 75 percent yellow seeds
You carry out a trihybrid cross (a cross in which the parental plants differ for three characters) between a tall pea plant with round, yellow seeds (TT RR YY) and a short pea plant with wrinkled, green seeds (tt rr yy). The parental plants are homozygous for all of the three characters. They are crossed to produce the F1 generation. Tall, round, and yellow are the dominant traits for each character. What will be the phenotypes of the F1 generation?
