Use a Punnett square to predict the offspring in a cross between a tall pea plant (heterozygous) and a tall pea plant (heterozygous). What is the genoypic ratio of the offspring?
Figure 8.10 In pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant to white (p), and yellow peas (Y) are dominant to green (y). What are the possible genotypes and phenotypes for a cross between PpYY and ppYy pea plants? How many squares would you need to complete a Punnett square analysis of this cross?
If you did an experimental cross and got 1152 individual offspring, how many of those offspring would have to be yellow to have a 3:1 (Yellow: green) ratio from the cross?
In the same cross as question #1, what fraction of the offspring will have their father's genotype for both traits?
You have a garden and some pea plants have dark leaves and others have striped leaves. You conduct a series of crosses (1 through 5) and obtain the results given in the table. What is the genotype of the parents in cross 1? A) Aa x aaB) Aa x AaC) aa x aaD) AA x aa
Mendel used dihybrid crosses to test the idea that alleles for two different characters assort independently. In a typical dihybrid cross (such as RrTt x RrTt), what proportions of phenotypes would be expected in the offspring? Select one: a. 9:3:3:1 b. 4:4:4:4 c. 2:2 d. 3:1 e. 100% dominant phenotype
Gregor Mendel determined a way to identify whether an organism with a dominant phenotype was heterozygous or homozygous. In a test cross, the organism with the ___ (choose dominant or recessive) phenotype is crossed with an organism that is homozygous ___ (choose dominant or recessive).
Mendel performs a cross using a true-breeding pea plant with round, yellow seeds and a true-breeding pea plant with green, wrinkled seeds. What is the probability that offspring will have green, round seeds? Calculate the probability for the F1 and F2 generations.
Mendel also studied tall and short varieties of pea plants. When he crossed tall x short plants together, the F1were tall. The tall F1 plants were self-hybridized to produce the F2. What proportion of phenotypes would be expected in the F2? 1:2:1 tall:intermediate:short 3:1 tall:short 1:1 tall:short 3:1 short:tall 1:2:1 intermediate:tall:short
When Mendel crossed yellow-seeded and green-seeded pea plants, all the offspring were yellow-seeded. When he took these F1 yellow-seeded plants and crossed them to green-seeded plants, what genotypic ratio was expected? What is the name of this type of cross?
Why did Mendel perform "reciprocal crosses"? Someone gives you a bag of yellow peas and you plant them in the Spring. Can you predict the color of the peas that will appear in the pods on the plants grown from these peas? Would your answer be different if you had received a bag of green peas? Explain what Mendel means when he writes that the 3:1 ratio observed in the first generation from the hybrids "resolves itself" into a ratio of 2:1:1
Why was it important that Mendel begin with pea plants that he knew bred true for ﬂower color? Why couldn’t he simply cross a purple-ﬂowered plant and a white-ﬂowered plant?
