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)
