Concept explainers
Two organisms, with genotypcs BbDD and BBDd, are mated. Assuming independent assortment of the B/b and D/d genes, write the genotypes of all possible offspring from this cross and use the rules of probability to calculate the chance of each genotype occurring.

- The genotype of F1 individuals in a tetrahybrid cross is AaBbCcDd X AaBbCcDd. Assuming independent assortment of these four genes, what are the probabilities that F2 offspring will have the following genotypes? Calculate the probability of each using multiplication and addition rules. Show your work. a. aabbccdd b. AaBbCcDd c. AaBBCCdd d. Any of the 3 genotypes abovearrow_forwardConsider the following cross: AaBbCcDd X AaBbCcDd. How many different genotypes would expect in the offspring from this cross? Number of different gentoypes =arrow_forwardWhat proportion of the offspring of the following crosses involving independent segregation will be homozygous for all gene pairs? Show solution and determine the probability of having an offspring homozygous for all gene pair. a. AaBb x AaBb b. AABBCC x AAbbccarrow_forward
- Which of the following F2 phenotypic ratios show codominance? Assume you are starting with a parental cross of true-breeders and the F1 offspring is self-crossed. 3:1 2:1 1:1 1:2:1 1:1:1:1arrow_forwardMost of the individuals of a certain wildflower population have yellow flowers, although a few are white-flowered. Crosses have demonstrated that allele for yellow flower (Y) is dominant over the allele for white (y). If two heterozygous yellow-flowered plants are crossed, what fraction of the offspring do you expect to be white? Show your solution.arrow_forwardAssuming independent assortment, what proportion of the offspring of the cross AabbCCdd × AaBbccDd will have the aabbCcdd genotype?

- Most of the individuals of a certain wildflower population have yellow flowers, although a few are white-flowered. Crosses have demonstrated that allele for yellow flower (Y) is dominant over the allele for white (y). If two white flowered plants are crossed, what fraction of their offspring do you expect to be YELLOW? Show your solution with punnet squarearrow_forwardWhat proportion of the offspring of the following crosses involving independent segregation will be homozygouz for all gene pairs? Show the result of each cross. A. AaBb x AaBa B.AABBCC x AAbbcc C. AaBBCc x AABbccarrow_forwardThe genotypes of F1 individuals in a trihybrid cross are LlMMNn x llMmNn. What is the probability that the F2 offspring will have an LlMmnn genotype? Use the forked-line method in solving the problem.arrow_forward
- Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion Directions: For the following problem, calculate the probability of the offspring between the cross using the sum and product rule. The parent generation has genotypes of Aa Bb Cc and AA Bb CC. What is the probability the F1 generation would be AA bb cc?arrow_forwardWhat genotypes would be expected for the offspring from the following matings? What are the phenotypic ratios for each cross? Explain how you came up with this ratio?arrow_forwardA cross is performed between individuals with the following genotypes: Aabb and aaBb. Use a Punnett square and predicted probabilities to answer the following questions. A. What is the probability that an offspring is dominant for the first trait and recessive for the second? B. What is the probability that an offspring is dominant for both traits? C. What is the probability that two offspring are dominant for both traits?arrow_forward
