Petal number is controlled by a single gene in merigonias. The gene has a completely dominant wild type allele F that makes a plant have five petals and a mutant recessive six petal allele(f). However the six petal trait is only 50% penetrant. You do the cross Ff x Ff. What fraction of the progeny do you have the 6 petals? what is the meaning for 50% penetrant.

Topic: Trihybrid Cross, Height in merigonias is determined by three unlinked genes that act additively. Each has two alleles, one compltely dominant allele(A,B or C) that makes plants taller and one recessive allele that makes plants shorter. Do the corss AaBbCc X AaBbCc. The fraction of The F1 progenty will be ? Pls explain it with more details. thanks

11 Normal No Spac. Styles Paragraph Inheritance APPLICATION Imagine that you are interested in developing a new tomato plant that will inchude the large size and sweetness from one parent and yellow color from another parent. The first parent plant has bland-tasting small yellow tomatoes and the other parent has sweet-tasting large red tomatoes. The chromosomes and alleles of the two plants are shown below. Plant #1: Bland (B), Small (1), Yellow (r) Plant #2: Sweet (b), Large (L), Red (R) R 1 r R Think about what you learned about inheriting traits from the lab to answer these questions. 1. Explain (in sentence form) why it is or is not possible for any of the offspring of these parents to have the sweet gene expressed in its phenotype. To illustrate your explanation, you may use a diagram or use the Punnett squares below to show the genotypes of the possible offspring. Include a percent chance in your answer. 2. Explain whether or not it is possible to create a tomato plant with…
