. In tigers, a recessive allele of a particular gene causes both anabsence of fur pigmentation (a white tiger) and a cross-eyed condition. If two phenotypically normal tigers that are heterozygousat this locus are mated, what percentage of their offspring will becross-eyed? What percentage of cross-eyed tigers will be white?
In humans, brown eyes are dominant to blue eyes, and the ability to roll your tongue is dominant to not being able to roll your tongue. If a mother who was heterozygous for eye colour and homozygous recessive for tongue rolling had a baby with a father that was heterozygous for both traits, what is the probability that their child would have blue eyes and could roll their tongue?
In Sheep, hairy fleece is dominant over wooly fleece. White fleece is dominant over black fleece and brown eyes are dominant over blue eyes.
What fraction of offspring would have wooly fleece and brown eyes, if one parent was heterozygous hairy with blue eyes and the other was heterozygous hairy and heterozygous brown eyed?
