You have a line of rice that is true breeding for the recessive traits fo white rice (r) and dwarfisim (d).

- 1. The pedigree shown below illustrates the inheritance pattern for a trait controlled by a single fully penetrant gene with complete dominance. Based on the pedigree do the following: a. List one mode of inheritance consistent with the pedigree.We have dealt mainly with only two genes, but the sameprinciples hold for more than two genes. Consider thefollowing cross:A/a ; B/b ; C/c ; D/d ; E/e × a/a ; B/b ; c/c ; D/d ; e/ea. What proportion of progeny will phenotypicallyresemble (1) the first parent, (2) the second parent,(3) either parent, and (4) neither parent?b. What proportion of progeny will be genotypically thesame as (1) the first parent, (2) the second parent,(3) either parent, and (4) neither parent?Assume independent assortment.1. How many different types of gametes can be produced by an individual with the genotype Yy Ww Pp ee Bb? 2. If an individual with the genotype Yy Ww Pp ee Bb is crossed with another individual with the same genotype, what proportion of offspring will be homozygous recessive at all genes? 3. If an individual with genotype Yy Ww Pp ee Bb is crossed with an individual with the same genotype, what proportion of offspring will have the dominant phenotype for the four heterozygous loci?
- 1. Construct a pedigree chart of the trait traced in the situation below.2. The pedigree chart must be constructed with the names and genotypes at the bottom of every individual in the chart.If it is autosomal: Always use the first letter of the dominant trait to represent the dominant allele. For example, if the dominant trait is red, so the allele R-red, while r-yellow. For example, if the person is homozygous dominant for curly hair, we write CC as his genotype. If sex-linked, do not forget to write the parents’ chromosomes (XX-female, XY-male), with their corresponding superscripts (dominant or recessive). The superscript must be based on the first letter of the disorder. For example, the mother is a carrier of hemophilia (which is x-linked recessive), so we write XHXh. If the father has hemophilia, we write XhY. Put the pedigree chart using code properly. The situation is given below: Trait: NeurofibromatosisThe dominant form is neurofibromatosis, caused by the production of…1. Construct a pedigree chart of the trait traced in the situation below.2.

Dr. Thompson can easily solve this problem by decomposing her dihybrid crosses into separate monohybrid Punnett squares, which would also be quicker than using a forked line diagram. If so, how many individual monohybrid Punnett squares will she need to draw? a) Four Punnett squares. b) Two Punnet squares. c) One Punnett square. d) Sixteen Punnett squares since there are 16 possible outcomes.
