Just for fun, imagine that "shirt-striping" is a phenotypic character caused by a Single gene. Construct a genetic explanation for the appearance of the family in the above photograph, consistent with their "Shirt phenotypes." Include in your answer the presumed allele combinations for "shirt-striping" in each family member. Identify the inheritance pattern shown by the child.

A scientist predicts that the kittens born with a congenital birth defect will be 25% based on the hypothesis that it is caused be a recessive gene in that breed of cat. After surveying several litters, he found that 44 out of 128 kittens had the defect. Is his hypothesis correct?
Use Chi-Square to solve
PLEASE DO BAR GRAPHS BASED ON DATA:
Procedure:
Assuming both parents carry three tall genes and three short genes, you will model the inheritance of height for ten different offspring. Flip a coin six times to determine how many tall and short genes the child inherits. Heads represents a tall gene and tails represents a short gene.
Record all of your data along with the class data in the tables below

- In this family tree, individuals with the trait are shown in black. Circles represent biological females. Squares represent biological males. Is the trait dominant or recessive? Explain your answer. Is the trait sex-linked? Explain your answer.arrow_forwardFrom your research, you discover that in this species of fish, the allele for black color is dominant to orange color. Based on this research, can you determine the genotype of a black fish just by looking at it? Why or why not? Yes, because the recessive allele must have been eliminated by the dominant one. Yes, because the phenotype always expresses all the alleles. No, because you do not know the DNA sequence. No, because it could be either homozygous dominant or heterozygous.arrow_forwardMendelian Genetics The presence of a dimple on the cheek is governed by a dominant gene.

In this case, the genotype is heterozygous, meaning that the plant carries two different alleles of the gene. Think of a scenario where you have a pea plant that is homozygous recessive in flower color. Determine the phenotype of the flower color for this plant and describe how the phenotype is derived based on the information provided in the below diagram. Make sure to include the following terms, gene, allele, locus, enzyme, and gene expression, in your discussion.arrow_forwardIn pre-DNA fingerprint days, blood type was often used in paternity disputes to exclude possible fathers.
