In humans, brown eyes (B) are dominant over blue. A brown eyed man marries a blue-eyed (b) woman and they have three children two of whom are brown-eyed and one of whom is blue-eyed. if blue is recessive, what must the woman’s genotype be?
What phenotypic proportions would be expected if the genes for red eyes and for white-banded wings were located on different chromosomes?
Honey Bees are unusual in that male bees (drones) have only one copy of each gene, while female bees have two copies of each gene. That is because drones develop from eggs that have not been fertilised by sperm cels. In bees, the trait of long wings is dominant over short wings, and the trait of black eyes is dominant over white eyes. If a drone with short wings and black eyes was mated to a queen bee that is heterozygous for both genes, what are the predicted genotypes and phenotypes of male and female offspring. What are the phenotypic ratios if we assume an equal number of male and female offspring?
If the father is heterozygous for six fingers and the mother has five fingers, what is the probability of having offspring with six fingers? What is the probability of having offspring with five fingers?

In the fruit fly, Drosophila, eye color is a sex-linked recessive trait located on the X chromosome. Red eyes are dominant over white eyes. If a heterozygous female breeds with a white-eyed male, what percentage of the offspring are expected to have red eyes?
In fruit flies, long wings are dominant and vestigial wings are recessive. If a long-winged fruit fly that is heterozygous mates with a fruit fly that has vestigial wings, which percentage of their offspring will have vestigial wings?. Single choice.
In fruitflies, sepia eye and vestigial wing are recessive characteristics to the wild type red eye and normal wing. Both genes are found on different autosomes. A sepia-eyed fly that was heterozygous for normal wings was mated to a sepia-eyed and vestigial-winged fly. What are the phenotypes of the offspring?
Why are lethal dominant genes much more rare than lethal recessive genes?
In flies, small wings are recessive to normal wings. If a cross between two flies produces 8 small-wing offspring and 28 normal-wing offspring, what are the most likely genotypes of the parents? (Use SS to represent the normal-wing allele and ss to represent the short-wing allele.)
