In corn three dominant genes are necessary for aleurone color. The genotype B__D__R is colored. Any homozygous recessive for one gene is colorless. Predict the expected phenotypic ratio COLORED: COLORLESS offspring from the cross of BbDdrr x BbDdRr.

Snow geese (Chen caerulescens) come in two color types, white “snows” and “blues” with dark bodies. A single gene controls coloration, where the dark (“blue”) allele (D) is dominant. A population of 30,012 geese includes 9236 dark individuals. Genetic testing reveals that 7636 of the 9236 dark individuals are heterozygous (Dd). How many individuals are DD?
A.) 9236
B.) 1600
C.) 7636
D.) 20776

In The Day of the Triffids, after most people in the world are blinded by an apparent meteor shower, an aggressive species of alien plants (brought to earth on the meteors) starts attacking people. Some Triffids have a poison stingers, and some do not. 1. Two true-breeding Triffid strains (poison stingers and no stingers) are crossed. All F1 progeny have poison stingers. What proportion of the F1 will be true-breeding? 2. Two true-breeding Triffid strains (poison stingers and no stingers) are crossed. All F1 progeny have poison stingers. The F1 is selfed to produce an F2. What proportion of the F2 will be true-breeding? 3. Some Triffids have a poison stingers, and some do not. Some Triffids are orange, and some are purple. Poison stingers and orange color are dominant.
