Assume that genes A and B are on the same chromosome and are 50 map units apart. An animal heterozygous at both loci is crossed with one that is homozygous recessive at both loci. What percentage of the offspring will show recombinant phenotypes resulting from crossovers? Without knowing these genes are on the same chromosome, how would you interpret the results of this cross?
If two genes on the same chromosome, A and B, are completely linked and no crossovers can occur between them, how many phenotypic combinations would be visible in the offspring from a testcross between a heterozygous female (AaBb) and a homozygous recessive male (aabb)? Explain.
A. 1
B. 2
C. 4
D. 8
If the likelihood of a single crossover in a particular chromosomalregion is 10%, what is the theoretical likelihood of a double or triplecrossover in that same region? How would positive interferenceaffect these theoretical values?

- Let us suppose that two long-winged flies were crossed and that 77 long-winged and 24 short-winged specimens were counted in the offspring. a. Will the short-winged character be dominant or recessive?B. What will the genotypes of the parents be?C. What is the observed genotype ratio?arrow_forwardTwo organisms, AABBCCDDEE and aabbccddee, are mated to produce an F1 that is self-fertilized. If the capital letters represent dominant, independently assorting alleles: (a) how many different genotypes will occur in the F2? 3^5=243(AaBbCcDdEe) (b) what proportion of the F2 genotypes will be recessive for all five loci?

If 3 completely dominant gene pairs A a, B b, C c are assorting independently,what is the probability of obtaining an AbC gamete from an AaBbCcindividual?Express answer in fraction form.arrow_forwardTwo genes, designated A and B, are located 10 mu from each other.A third gene, designated C, is located 15 mu from B and 5 mufrom A. The parental generation consisting of AA bb CC and aaBB cc individuals were crossed to each other. The F1 heterozygoteswere then testcrossed to aa bb cc individuals. If we assume nodouble crossovers occur, what percentage of offspring would youexpect with the following genotypes?A. Aa Bb CcB. aa Bb CcC.

The second strain has straight wings and brown bodies. The F2 progeny are 271 straight wings with brown bodies, 31 curled wings with black bodies, 94 curled wings with brown bodies and 90 straight wings with black bodies. If instead of the above, assume the wing shape gene and the body color gene are completely linked. From parents that are curled winged with brown bodies mated to straight winged with black bodies, what would be the outcome of an F1 intercross?

When plants with red flowers are crossed with plants with white flowers, what proportion/probability of the offspring will have pink flowers?
