Question
1. While hiking your find a wild growing pea plant with purple flowers. You know that purple pea flowers are dominant to white pea flowers, but from looking at the plant, you cannot be certain if it is homozygous dominant or heterozygous. Explain the cross you could set up to determine the genotype of the wild pea plant and which results would indicate it is heterozygous versus homozygous.
2. Using skin color as an example of a multifactorial trait, explain why skin color produces a wide range of possible

- 4. Genetically, pure white dogs, when crossed to brown dogs produce an all white F1. Data on F2 progeny reveals: 136 white; 41 black; and 13 brown. This coat color trait in dogs is said to be exhibiting dominant epistasis following a 12: 3: 1 expected ratio. Test this hypothesis by chi square.

Beetles of a certain species may have green, blue, or turquoise wing covers. Virgin beetles were selected from a polymorphic (i.e. not a true-breeding stock) laboratory population and mated to determine the inheritance of wing-cover color. The crosses and results were as follows: Parents blue X green blue X blue 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 green X green blue X turquoise blue X blue a. blue X green blue X green turquoise X turquoise Progeny all blue 3 blue: 1 turquoise 3 green 1 turquoise 1 blue: 1 turquoise 3 blue: 1 green 1 blue: 1 green 2 blue 1 green: 1 turquoise all turquoise Explain how the genetic basis of wing-cover color in this species could be determined by one gene. b. Write the genotypes of all parents and progeny as completely as possible. (Use gene and allele symbols of your own choosing, but please define what they are.)arrow_forward2. Dwarf tomatoes differ from the familiar tall type in having short, thick stems and deeper green, puckered, somewhat curled leaves. (This is an example of pleiotrophy.) The cross between pure breeding tall tomato plants and pure breeding dwarf tomato plants produces all tall plants. Which is the dominant allele? What would be the genotype and phenotype ratios?
