You were given 1000 fruit flies to start a new laboratory colony. Before starting to breed your fruit flies, you decided to determine their genetic make up. You counted approximately 360 fruit flies that have vestigial wings, a recessive trait. How many flies are homozygous dominant? O 640 О 320 O 240 О 160 O 400

Figure 19.2 In plants, violet flower color (V) is dominant over white (v). If p = .8 and q = 0.2 in a population of 500 plants, how many individuals would you expect to be homozygous dominant (VV), heterozygous (Vv), and homozygous recessive (vv)? How many plants would you expect to have violet flowers, and how many would have white flowers?

The fraggles are a population of mythical, mouselike creatures that live in underground tunnels and chambers beneath a large vegetable garden that supplies their food. They can reproduce VERY quickly! Of the fraggles currently in this population, 372 have green fur and 182 have gray fur. Green fur is controlled by a dominant allele F and gray fur by a recessive allele f. d) How many fraggles are homozygous recessive (ff)? e) How many fraggles are homozygous dominant (FF)?

Organism 1 has the genotype AaBbCc and Organism 2 has the genotype AABBCc. Select the statement which is FALSE Question 5 options: Organism 1 is a heterozygote Organism 1 and 2 can both pass on the dominant allele "C" Organism 1 and 2 have the same number of gametotypes possible Organism 2 can never have offspring homozygous for the recessive "a" allele
You set up a cross between a male fruit fly with lobe eyes and a true breeding female fruit fly with reduced bristles and disrupted wings. In the F1 offspring you see the all the flies have WT bristles and WT wings. However, half the flies have WT eyes and half the flies have lobe eyes. You take 20 of the F1 female flies with lobe eyes and mate them to 20 true breeding male flies with reduced bristles and disrupted wings and observe the following offspring: 169 lobe eyes and reduced bristles 137 lobe eyes and disrupted wings 637 reduced bristles and disrupted wings 158 reduced bristles 36 wildtype 174 disrupted wings 657 lobe eyes 32 lobe eyes reduced bristles and disrupted wings Fruit flies are unusual in that the male fruit flies do not undergo crossovers during meiosis. If you had taken 20 of the F1 Males with lobe eyes and crossed them to 20 females that were true breeding for reduced bristles and disrupted wings what phenotypes and in what proportions would you expect in the…
