Chapter 14.3, Problem 3CC

WHAT IF? Ø A rooster with gray feathers and a hen of the same phenotype produce 15 gray, 6 black, and 8 white chicks. What is the simplest explanation for the inheritance of these colors in chickens? What phenotypes would you expect in the offspring of a cross between a gray rooster and a black hlen?

1. Suppose that in plants, smooth seeds (S) are dominant to wrinkled seeds (s) and tall plants (T) are dominant to short plants (t). A tall plant with smooth seeds was backcrossed to a parent that was short and wrinkled. What proportion of the progeny is expected to be heterozygous for tall and smooth? 2. Sickle cell anemia is a recessive trait in humans. In a cross between a father who has sickle cell anemia and a mother who is heterozygous for the gene, what is the probability that their first three children will have the normal phenotype?
Pea PlantsIn pea plants, a round-seed shape (R) is dominant over a wrinkled-seed shape (r). A round-seeded pea plant was crossed with another round-seeded pea plant. What are the genotype(s) and phenotype(s) ratios of the F1 generation? Show all possibilities using Punnett squares. State the F1 generation genotypes and phenotypes.
In the common daisy, genes A and B control flower color. Both genes have a dominant allele (A or B) and a recessive allele (a or b). At least one copy of each dominant allele is required for flowers to be colorful instead of white. (Explain and Justify your answers)  21.1)      Predict the genotypes and phenotypes of the F1 progeny of a cross between two white-flowered plants, one homozygous AA and the other homozygous BB. A)   AA bb, white          B)   aa BB, white  C)   Aa Bb, colorful  D)   Aa Bb, white  E)   aa bb, colorful  21.2)      Predict the phenotypic ratio of the F2 progeny of a cross between two white-flowered plants, one homozygous AA and the other homozygous BB. A)   3 colorful : 1 white            B)   9 colorful : 7 white  C)   9 white : 7 colorful  D)   15 white : 1 colorful  E)   15 colorful : 1 white  21.3)      The inheritance pattern of daisy flower color provides an example of what type of gene interaction?                        A)   additivity…
