The gene for eye color has several alleles. The allele for brown eyes is symbolized with B and the allele for blue eyes is symbolized with b. A father has the phenotype of blue eyes (recessive trait) and a mother has a phenotype of brown eyes (dominant trait.). If they have a child, what is the most likely genotype? Bb bb BB none of these
what is the strongest evidence that this is not an x-linked recessive trait? Do not make any assumptions about whether the allele is rare or not. a. II-1 is affected b. III-2 is unaffected c. IV-2 is unaffected d. IV-1 is affected e. II-2 is unaffected
In cats, gray hair (GG) is dominant to white hair (gg). Also in cats, black eyes (BB) are dominant to red eyes (rr).What are the phenotypes of cats that have the following genotypes? (2) Ggbb (2) ggBB (3) ggbb (4) GgBb
A trait with a high concordance value in MZ twins has a a) significant environmental component. b) significant random component. c) significant inherited component. d) no conclusions can be drawn in this case.
Consider two genes. The first one is autosomal with dominant allele A and recessive allele a in the population.The second gene is on the X chromosome with dominant allele R and recessive allele r. Recall that the male Y chromosome has no gene alleles.Match the mode of inheritance (MOI) with the sentence that best describes it.

Which of the following statements correctly describes the Law of Independent Assortment? a. A large Punnett square can be used to predict the outcome of a parental cross involving two traits. b. Non-allelic genes do not affect each other if they are located on separate chromosomes. c. Sometimes all alleles lack dominance, which leads to a blending of traits. d. The dominant allele is represented with an uppercase letter and the recessive allele is represented with a lowercase letter.
In organisms with X and Y chromosomes, many more genes can be found on the X chromosome than on the Y chromosome. In mammals, how might this deviate from traits being expressed, according to Mendel? A. Females might exhibit a mix of traits rather than all dominant or all recessive traits. B. Only females will have the traits resulting from the X-linked genes. C. Females will overproduce some proteins in relation to males’ production levels. D. This will not result in individuals deviating from Mendel’s principles.
In hamsters, black hair (B) is dominant over gray (b) hair color. A black hamster bred to a grey hamster, resulting in 8 black and 7 grey hamsters in F1. What are the genotypes of the parents? Parent with black hair:________ Parent with gray hair:________ Group of answer choices a) BB, Bb d) Bb, bb c) bb, bb d) BB, bb
A type of baldness is sex –limited such that the allele that causes it is dominant in men and recessive in women. Thus baldness is much more common in men than women even though the locus is on an autosome. How is the pattern of inheritance in this example different from X-linked inheritance of a recessive allele? Group of answer choices A. the trait can be passed from fathers to sons B. the trait can be passed from fathers to daughters C. the trait can be passed from mothers to sons D. the trait can be passed from mothers to daughters
In rabbits, black is due to a dominant gene, brown color is recessive. Short hair is dominant and long hair is recessive. Cross a homozygous black, short-haired rabbit with a homozygous brown, long-haired rabbit. Give the genotype and phenotype for F1 and F2 generations.
