EXAMPLE PROBLEM Two black female mice are crossed with a brown male. In several litters, female I produced 9 black offspring and 7 brown; female II produced 57 black offspring. What deductions can you make about the inheritance of black and brown coat color in mice? What are the genotypes of the parents? Dominance and recessive describe which of two possible phenotypes are exhibited when two different alleles occur in the same individual.
. Consider the imaginary trait, bristles with split-ends, a trait hypothesized to be X-linked dominant. In a cross,
the P1 virgin females were homozygous wild type while the males had bristles with split-ends. The F1 84 males
were all wild type while the 90 females all had split-ends. In addition, the data for the F2 generation revealed 26
wild type males, 35 wild type females, 29 split-end males and 40 split-end females. Is this what is to be expected?
Use chi-square to prove your position.
Red-green colorblindness in humans is recessive and x-linked. if a woman, heterozygous for colorblindness marries a colorblind man, what is the probability that they will have colorblind daughter?
How would you distinguish a trait caused by a sex-linked recessive allele from one caused by a sex-influenced gene that is dominant?

- Part 1: Consider three autosomal genes (E, F and G) present in a hypothetical species. The E allele results in male development, the e allele results in female development while the heterozygote develops as a hermaphroditic, sterile individual. The genes at the F and G loci show complete dominance, with the dominant alleles producing long tails (F) and black whiskers (G), while the recessive alleles produce short tails and grey whiskers, respectively. You cross a male with a short tail and black whiskers with a female that has a long tail and black whiskers. All the F1 individuals recovered have long tails, with some having black whiskers and others having grey whiskers. a) What is the sexual phenotype of the F1 offspring? ... b) Another batch of five offspring are expected from the same parents. What is the probability of the first offspring having a long tail and black whiskers?arrow_forwardExplain your answer. Below is a pedigree showing the inheritance of colorblindness in Akoto family.

- 9. Red-green color blindness is inherited as an X-linked recessive (Xc). If a color-blind man marries a woman who is heterozygous for normal vision, what would be the expected phenotypes of their children with reference to this character? In your answer, specify in your phenotype descriptions the gender of the children. (For example, don’t just say 75% of the children would be colorblind – you would instead say 100 % of the daughters would be colorblind and 50% of the sons would be colorblind. Note that this is not a correct answer; it is just to give you an idea of how to explain the correct phenotypes of the cross.)___arrow_forwardIn humans, Cystic Fibrosis an autosomal recessive trait, currently with medicine advances people affected by this disease can live until the 40s and 50s even.
