- Let us suppose that two long-winged flies were crossed and that 77 long-winged and 24 short-winged specimens were counted in the offspring. a. Will the short-winged character be dominant or recessive?B. What will the genotypes of the parents be?C. What is the observed genotype ratio?In an intra-species cross performed in mustard plants of two different species (Brassica juncea and Brassica oleracea), a tall plant (TT) was crossed with a dwarf (tt) variety in each of the two species. The members of the F1 generation were crossed to produce the F2 generation. Of the F2 plants, Brassica juncea had 60 tall and 20 dwarf plants, while Brassica oleracea had 100 tall and 20 dwarf plants. Use chi-square analysis to analyze these results.In peas, purple flowers are dominant to white. If a purple-flowered, heterozygous plant were crossed with a white-flowered plant, what is the expected ratio of genotypes and phenotypes among the F1F1offspring? If two of the purple-flowered F1F1 offspring were randomly selected and crossed, what is the expected ratio of genotypes and phenotypes among the F2F2 offspring?

(a) What is the most probable genotype of each parent?(b) What genotypic and phenotypic ratios are expected?(c) Based on the information provided in part (b) above, what are the expected (theoretical) numbers of progeny (400 total) of each phenotypic class?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.
- In garden peas, the gene for red flowers (R) is dominant over the gene for white flowers (r). If pollen (cells containing sperm nuclei) from the anther (male reproductive organ) of a homozygous red-flowered plant is added to the pistil (female reproductive organ containing the egg) of a white-flowered plant: a. What would be the expected phenotypic and genotypic ratios in the first generation of offspring? b. If two members of the first generation of offspring were crossed, what would be the expected phenotypic and genotypic ratios in the next generation?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 : whiteIf a cross is made between two plants that are heterozygous for two traits (AaBb), then their offspring should follow the 9:3:3:1 ratio. In this case, A is the dominant allele for purple leaves, and B is the dominant allelle for curly roots. If the two parents were crossed to yield 320 progeny, approximately how many plants with purple leaves and curly roots would you expect? Group of answer choices a.180 b.225 c.25 d.50 As part of a lab experiment, you create a two-locus cross between two plants, and you expect to see a 8:4:2:2 ratio of offspring. You determine the phenotype for 160 offspring, and find the proportions 84:38:19:19. If you use a chi-square test to determine whether the offspring do indeed fit this pattern, how many degrees of freedom would the test have? Group of answer choices a.2 b.3 c.83 d.4
- Do a Punnett square for a cross between a homozygous red-eyed female (XR XR ) and a white-eyed male (Xr Y). What would be the genotypes of the female F1 flies? ____ phenotype? ______ What would be the genotypes of the male F1 flies? ___ phenotype? _______ Do a Punnett square for the F2 results if one of the F1 females mated with one of the F1 males. *To show results of sex-linked traits: Divide phenotypes into males and females first, keep results as fractions (or %). List the phenotypes, with the corresponding genotype (in parentheses) next to each phenotype. Males: Females: A sex-linked trait in humans: hemophilia = blood clotting disorder. Normal clotting (XN) is dominant to hemophilia (Xn). Do a Punnett square for a normal clotting (homozygous dominant) woman and a man with hemophilia.What if the 80 offspring that were produced by Doja’s experiment instead contained 28 F2 offspring that have green peas, tall stalks, and purple flowers, and 29 of the reciprocal phenotype, yellow peas, short stalks, and white flowers. Would she be able to say the three genes were assorting independently of one another?Two true-breeding varieties of maize, one 11 cm high and the other 47 cm high were crossed and the resultant F1 hybrids were then crossed to generate the F2 . In the F2 there were a total of 13,923 plants with a continuous variation in heights between the two extremes and with only 3 plants as large as 47 cm high and 5 plants of 11 cm high.So What would be the size and genotype of the F1 from a cross between a true-breeding 11 cm plant and a true-breeding 47 cm plant?
