- You perform a cross between two true-breeding strains of zucchini, One has green fruit and the other has yellow fruit. The F1 plants are all green, but when these are crossed, the F2 plants consist of 9 green: 7 yellow. A. Assuming that wild-type zucchini are green, how would you describe the phenomenon that occurred in the F1 of part (e) of the parents and progeny?.arrow_forwardThe following cross is set: DDEeFFggHh X DdEEFfGGhh a. What is the maximum number of additive alleles possible in their offspring? b. What is the maximum number of non-additive alleles possible in their offspring?arrow_forwardYou have a pure breeding plant with red flowers, yellow seeds and red-veined leaves. You cross this with another pure breeding plant that has white flowers, pink seeds and yellow leaf veins. All of the offspring (F1) have white flowers, yellow seeds and orange leaf veins. Assuming all three loci are independently assorting, use this information to answer the following question: If two F1 offspring are crossed with each other and 1000 F2 are obtained, approximately how many offspring should have orange leaf veins? a. 1000 b. 750 c. 500 d. 250 e.

- In the Pea plant, tall plant height (T) is dominant over short (t). Pure-breeding tall and short plants are crossed. A) If the F1 is self-crossed and 400 F2 plants are raised, how many would be expected in each phenotypic class? B) How many of the F2 would be expected to be pure breeding when selfed?arrow_forwardWhen a white guinea pig is crossed to a yellow guinea pig, all the progeny are cream colored. From a cross of two such F1’s, the F2 showed 32 white, 66 cream, and 30 yellow guinea pigs. How is this trait inherited?arrow_forwardTwo plants, both heterozygous for the gene that controls flower color are crossed. What percentage of the offspring will have purple flowers? ______What percentage will have white flowers?arrow_forward
- In a unique species of plants, flowers may be yellow, blue, red, or mauve. All colors may be true breeding. If plants with blue flowers are crossed to red-flowered plants, all F1 plants have yellow flowers. When these produced an F2 generation, the following ratio was observed: 9/16 yellow: 3/16 blue: 3/16 red: 1/16 mauve In still another cross using true-breeding parents, yellow-flowered plants are crossed with mauve-flowered plants. Again, all F1 plants had yellow flowers and the F2 showed a 9:3:3:1 ratio, as just shown. (a) Describe the inheritance of flower color by defining gene symbols and designating which genotypes give rise to each of the four phenotypes. (b) Determine the F1 and F2 results of a cross between truebreeding red and true-breeding mauve-flowered plants.arrow_forwardA pea plant from a pure-breeding strain that is tall, has green pods, and has purple flowers that are terminal is crossed to a plant from a pure-breeding strain that is dwarf, has yellow pods, and has white flowers that are axial. The F1 plants are all tall and have purple axial flowers as well as green pods. What phenotypes do you expect to see in the F2? What phenotypes and ratios would you predict in the progeny from crossing an F1 plant to the dwarf parent?arrow_forwardIf round seed (R) is dominant to wrinkled seed (r) and yellow seed (Y) is dominant to green (y), how many yellow round offspring would you expect to see in the F2 generation of a standard dihybrid genetic cross if there are 1600 total offspringarrow_forward
- Assuming a typical monohybrid cross in which one allele is completely dominant to the other, what ratio is expected if the F1's are crossed?arrow_forwardIn venetian violets, three phenotypes occur with respect to flower color: a deep violet (almost back), a white, and a pale lavender. Two pale lavender flowered plants have been crossed. The F1 from this cross has individuals with deep violet flowers, with pale lavender flowers, and individuals with white flowers. A. what are the parent genotypes? B. what would the expected phenotypic ratio be in these F1 plants?arrow_forwardTwo true-breeding pea plants are crossed: one has purple flowers and green seeds, and the other has white flowersand yellow seeds. The F1 progeny are selfed to get F2 plants. Purple flowers and yellow seeds are dominant. What isthe probability that the first three F2 plants all have purple flowers and yellow seeds?arrow_forward
