Fill in the Punnett Squares below and answer the following questions. Seed Color Seed Shape R r A a In a pea plant experiment, the allele (R) producing yellow seed color is dominant, and the allele (r) producing green seed color is recessive. A homozygous recessive genotype would produce green seeds. Similarly, the allele (A) producing round seed shape is dominant to the allele (a) that produces wrinkled seed shape. A homozygous recessive genotype would produce wrinkled seeds. Both traits sort independently of each other. Given a pure-breeding cross between a round, green pea plant and a wrinkled yellow plant, complete the rest of the Punnett Squares below, and answer the following questions.

- Question: Black hair of the mouse is produced by dominant gene B and white hair by recessive allele b.Female with black hair crossed with male black hair (both genotypes are heterozygous). Produced individuals 112 and 113, female with white hair and male with black hair, then mating occur between 114 and 113, and another mating occur between 112 and 111. assume that 111 and 114 individuals do not carry the recessive allele, represents the above in a pedigree chart and determine the genotype of each individual.arrow_forwardQuestion: This is a normal 3 point test cross, except that instead of regular phenotypes, you are looking at DNA markers on a gel. One parent, according to the gel, is heterozygous at each marker. The other parent is homozygous for each marker. (Again, this means it is a test cross: AaEeHh x AAEEHH --but don't be confused by that, because these are not "dominant" and "recessive" per se; the phenotype is just a band on a gel). For each offspring, figure out its genotype (homozygous or heterozygous for each gene. Then, figure that one parent made only AEH gametes, so you can cross that out if it helps.) Then treat it pretty much the same as a 3 point test cross.arrow_forwardHello thank you for working out the problems is it possible if i can see it in dimensional analysis way if possarrow_forward
- I need help solving this : In humans, the X chromosome is large in comparison to the Y chromosome. The X chromosome carries information for many traits that aren't related to the sex of the individual. Alleles carried only by the X chromosome are said to be X-linked (or some-times, sex-linked). Some of the alleles on the tiny Y chromosome appear to have no counterparts on X. These Y-linked alleles code for traits that are found only in males. Among the X-linked traits are a number of recessive genetic disorders. One of these is hemophilia, the inability to produce proteins necessary for blood clotting. Hemophiliacs can bleed to death from relatively minor cuts or bruises. Historical records dating back thousands of years mention the inheritance pattern of hemophilia. Among the ancient Hebrews, sons born to women with a family history of hemophilia were excused from circumcision. Hemophilia was common during the 1800s in the royal families of Europe, whose members often intermarried.…arrow_forwardQuestion:- 8. Describe how Morgan’s experiment with the white-eyed mutant fly provided evidence for the chromosomal basis for inheritance. Be sure to include the significance of the x-linked gene.arrow_forwardQuestion- 1. In onions, male sterility is due to the interaction of a chromosomal allele pair hh and “sterile” (S) cytoplasm. All other combinations (i.e. HH/Hh and “sterile” cytoplasm, HH/Hh or hh “fertile” (F) cytoplasm) result in male-fertile plants. The male-sterile trait is incorporated into inbred lines to produce hybrid F1 seed on a commercial scale.a) How would you perpetuate the male-sterile line? Show the cross.b) Briefly outline the method of producing hybrid seed (heterozygote) for the commercial crop. Show the cross.c) Does it matter whether the cytoplasm is fertile or sterile in the male-fertile inbred? Explain.arrow_forward

Should Jenny and Mark eventually marry, what is the probability that they will have: a child with muscular dystrophy, a child with amelogenesis imperfecta, a son with hypophosphatemia, a daughter with muscular dystrophy, a child with the same genotype as Jenny, a child with the same genotype as Markarrow_forwardpls dont copy existing answers or i will dislike your answer thanks Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a disorder caused by a recessive allele. Two carrier individuals have progeny. Answer the following questions in order and show solutions whenever relevant. 1.

If they have three children, what is the probability of having 2 affected children and one normal child?arrow_forwardPractice Pedigree Problem help. I am confused so please show. Label Phenotypes and genotypes as you go about the Pedigree (and whatever else might be required)! Thank you again for your help, these questions confuse me). Hair or fur length in cats is controlled by a single, autosomal gene; the short hair-allele is dominant to the allele for long hair. Hair color is produced by a different gene which is located on the X chromosome. One allele for this sex-linked gene produces yellow, while an alternate allele produces black fur color; individuals which are heterozygous for these alleles are calico or tortiseshell in color. a). If a long-haired, black male is mated with a calico female homozygous for short hair, what kind of kittens will be produced in the F1generation? Give both genotypes and phenotypes; express the genotypes both symbolically and in words.arrow_forward
