- Thimble foxes cook color is controlled by a single gene while tail length is controlled by a separate Gene. Red coat is dominant to white coat and long tails are dominant to short tails, dominant is complete. Thimble fox one has a red coat and a long tail, its mother had a white coat and short tail. Thimble fox two has a white coat and long tail, its father had a short tail.  Complete the punnets square for this cross and give the phenotypic ratio of the offspring. If there is a dominant allele for this first Street, place the gamete in the first give me a position. Then state the Phenotypic ratio.arrow_forwardKernel color in wheat is controlled by 2 pairs of genes (AABB). Determine the color of the offspring with the following genotypes: (Note: 4 contributing alleles – red; 3 contributing alleles – medium red; 2 contributing alleles – intermediate red; 1 contributing allele – red; and 0 – white (AAbb x AaBb, AABb x Aabb, aaBb x Aabb, AABb x aabb, AABb x AaBb) Refer to the problem above, a wheat plant producing medium red seed is crossed with another plant producing intermediate red seed. How many individuals will be?

- In chickens, comb shape is determined by genes at two loci (R, r and P, p). A walnut comb is produced when at least one dominant gene R is present at one locus and at least one dominant gene P is present at a second locus (genotype R_ P_). A rose comb is produced when at least one dominant gene is present at the first locus and two recessive genes are present at the second locus (genotype R_ pp). A pea comb is produced when two recessive genes are present at the first locus and at least one dominant gene is present at the second (genotype rr P_). If two recessive genes are present at the first and the second locus (rr pp), a single comb is produced. Give genotypes for comb shape of the parents in the following cross: Rose crossed with pea produces 20 walnut offspring. O A. Rr pp x Rr Pp B. Rr pp x rr PP C. Rr pp x rr Pp D. RR pp x rr PP O E.

The pedigree shows the inheritance of the wing-shape trait over two generations. In the pedigree, squares represent males and circles represent females. Shaded symbols represent an individual with normal wing shape. A cross between individual 4 and individual 5 in the pedigree resulted in the data shown in the table. This data results in a chi-square value of 6.45. Female Male Normal 25 39 Vestigial 22 14 Degrees of Freedom p 1 2 0.05 3.84 5.99 0.01 6.64 9.32 Based on the data, which of the following best supports the claim that this trait exhibits an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern? The results of the cross show that there were no heterozygous dominant females. The chi-square value shows that these results are not typical of this type of cross. The results of the cross show that fewer males exhibited the recessive trait than females. The…arrow_forwardIn onions, presence of gene C causes production of an enzyme which catalyzes theproduction of bulb-color pigment. Gene K prevents this enzyme from functioning, thuspreventing enzyme production. The two genes are inherited independently. A true breedingcolored variety is crossed with a white one of genotype ccKK. (b) Another pair of alleles R and r, independent of genes C and K controls the specific color for bulbs, R giving red and r, yellow bulbs. If the true-breeding colored variety are homozygous for R and the white ones homozygous for r, what would be the phenotypic ratios in the F1 and F2 of the above cross?arrow_forward
- In Drosophila fruit flies, the genes for warped wings (dwp), rumpled bristles (rmp), and pallid wings (pld) are linked. A trihybrid female for all three allleles is crossed with homozygous recessive male for all three alleles and the offspring obtained showed the following phenotypes: 3 pld rmp dwp 428 pld rmp + 427 + + dwp 48 + rmp + 47 pld + dwp 23 pld + + 2 + + + 22 + rmp dwp What is the order and map distance between these three alleles?arrow_forwardIn Drosophila, the sepia mutation (se, chromosome 3, position 26) results in dark brown eyes, while cinnabar (cn, chromosome 2, position 57.5) results in bright orange-red eyes. True breeding, wild type females are mated with true breeding males homozygous recessive for both traits. Using Drosophila notation, diagram the P1 and F1 crosses.
