Two pairs of traits are segregating in a cross. Two parents produce 156 progeny that fall into 4 phenotypes. The numbers of offspring in the 4 phenotypes are 89, 31, 28, and 8. What are the genotypes of the two parents?
In cats, the genotype AA produces tabby fur color; Aa is also a tabby, and aa is black. Another gene at a different locus is epistatic to the gene for fur color. When present in its dominant W form (WW or Ww), this gene blocks the formation of fur color and all the offspring are white; ww individuals develop normal fur color. What fur colors, and in what proportions, would you expect from the cross AaWw Aa Ww?
The dominant C allele of a gene that controls color in corn produces kernels with color; plants homozygous for a recessive c allele of this gene have colorless or white kernels. What kinds of gametes, and in what proportions, would be produced by the plants in the following crosses? What seed color, and in what proportions, would be expected in the offspring of the crosses? a. CCCc b. Cccc c. CcCc
Imagine you are performing a cross involving seed color in garden pea plants. What Fi offspring would you expect if you cross true-breeding parents with green seeds and yellow seeds? Yellow seed color is dominant over green. 100 percent yellow-green seeds 100 percent yellow seeds 50 percent yellow, 50 percent green seeds 25 percent green, 75 percent yellow seeds
1. The petals of the blue-eyed Mary (Collinsia parviflora) are normally blue. There are color variants of white and pink. Two pure breeding lines, one with pink petals and another with white petals were collected and the following crosses were made, with results shown in the table below: parents F1 F2 blue x white blue 101 blue, 33 white blue x pink blue 192 blue, 63 pink pink x white blue 272 blue, 121 white, 89 pink A. Define the allele symbols that can be used and show the genotype of parents, F1 and F2. B. A cross between a certain blue F2 plant and a certain white F2 plant gave progeny of which 3/8 were blue, 1/8 were pink, and ½ were white. What must the genotypes of these two F2 plants have been?

4.) A man and a woman have a child. The father is blood type A, and one of his parents was blood type A and the other was blood type O. The mother is blood type B, and one of her parents was blood type B, the other type O. Both the father and the mother are carriers of the Bombay allele. (Neither of the type-O grandparents were type O because of the Bombay allele – they had the regular type O genotype.) WhataretheoddsthattheirbabywillhavebloodtypeO? WhataretheoddsthattheirbabywillhavebloodtypeAB? (Hint – for this question, you should draw out a pedigree and fill in as much as you can for the genotypes of BOTH genes that are involved.)
1. During his study of the rare Idlewild Lady Slipper (a wild orchid), Dr. Jorge Whiteback discovered several variants of the typical "wild-type" phenotype. He found two varieties of lady slippers at different elevations: a lady slipper variety found in the valley with red flowers and a lady slipper found at higherelevations with white flowers. When Dr. Whiteback did controlled crosses between lady slippers with red flowers and lady slippers with white flowers, all the offspring of this cross had pink flowers. After allowing pinkflowering lady slippers to self-fertilize, the next generation of plants had 112 red flowering plants, 218 pink flowering plants, and 108 white flowering plants.1a) What mode of inheritance would best explain the results of Dr. Whiteback's crosses?b) How many genes and how many different alleles of these gene(s) are determining flower coloraccording to your mode of inheritance?c) Define alleles using the appropriate notation for your answer in (a) and use that…
1) By convention, the recessive trait will determine the abbreviation used to track crosses if it is a mutant condition, since it stands out in contrast to the rest of the population. For example, if pea pods are typically green in color, a mutant condition might result in yellow pea pods; therefore, the lowercase letter ‘y’ would be used to depict the mutant state, yellow, while uppercase ‘Y’ would depict the wildtype (wt) condition, green. Remember that the mutant condition is not necessarily always recessive. 1 A) . If green is dominant wt (Y) and yellow is a recessive mutant condition (y), depict a Yy father mated with a YY mother in the Punnett. 1B) Considering the dominant allele, what colors are the parents in the cross above? Yy = _____________________ YY = _____________________ 1C) What colors are the offspring in the cross above? 1D) What is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring? 1E) What is the genotypic ratio of the offspring? (Remember, the genotypic ratio is based…
1. What is the difference between genotype and phenotype? 2. A black guinea pig is mated to a white guinea pig, and they produce 12 black offspring. Then, the same white guinea pig is mated to a different black guinea pig, and they produce 7 black and 5 white offspring. What is the best explanation for the difference between these two matings? In your answer, you must include the genotypes for the parents and offspring of each cross. 3. In 1981, a stray black cat with unusual curled-back ears was adopted by a family in California. Suppose you were the person who owned the first “curl” cat, and wanted to develop it into its own breed. How would you determine whether the allele for curled ears is dominant or recessive? Why does it make a difference for breeders whether an allele for a trait is dominant or recessive?
2. In a strain of chickens, there are birds with white, black, or blue feathers. In crosses between ten white hens and ten blue roosters, there are 100 offspring: 24 hens with blue feathers, 26 roosters with blue feathers, 23 hens with white feathers, 27 roosters with white feathers. When crossing blue hens and white roosters, there are 100 offspring: 25 hens with blue feathers, 25 roosters with blue feathers, 26 hens with white feathers, 24 roosters with white feathers. A. Using allele symbols, create a plausible explanation for these traits. Why is this trait not sex-linked? When crossing ten black roosters and ten white hens, you observe 100 offspring: 51 hens with blue feathers, 49 roosters with blue feathers. When crossing white roosters and black hens, you observe 100 offspring: 50 hens with blue feathers, 50 roosters with blue feathers B. Use allele symbols to create a plausible explanation for these traits. C. Using evidence of all crosses, what would you predict if you…
