Complete a Punnett square for a genetic cross of two truebreeding Portuguese water dogs—one with a black, wavy coat (homozygous dominant, BBWW) and one with a brown, curly coat (homozygous recessive, bbww). What is the phenotype ratio of their offspring (F1)? Now ﬁll out another Punnett square, crossing two of the offspring. What is the phenotype ratio of the F2 generation?
With regard to heterosis, is each of the following statements consistent with the dominance hypothesis, the overdominance hypothesis, or both? A. Strains that have been highly inbred have become monomorphicfor one or more recessive alleles that are somewhat detrimentalto the organism. B. Hybrid vigor occurs because highly inbred strains are monomorphicfor many genes, whereas hybrids are more likely to beheterozygous for those same genes.C. If a gene exists in two alleles, hybrids are more vigorousbecause heterozygosity for the gene is more beneficial thanhomozygosity of either allele.
