Question
4.
In celery the leaves can be curly (Dominant; L) or straight (recessive; l). Another trait is
spots on the leaves. Dark green spots (G) are dominant over white spots (g).
Create a
Punnett square that shows all of the possible offspring that could occur from breeding
the following:
1.
Plant 1: Heterozygous dominant for both traits
2.
Plant 2: Recessive for both traits
3.
Include the percentage/ratio of occurrence for each phenoty

- Fruit weight is controlled by 4 gene pairs. The homozygous dominant weighs 200 g while the homozygous recessive weighs 80 g. Assume that the alleles have equal contribution and have cumulative effects. The F1 and F2 of the two parents below were studied. Parent 1 - D1D1D2D2D3D3d4d4 x Parent 2 - d1d1d2d2d3d3D4D4 Compute for the contribution of the dominant allele. Compute for the fruit weight of parental 1 and parental 2.arrow_forward1. In the milotypes of wheat, 4 recessive genes for height have been identified. They have been designated as h1, h2, h3, and h4. A plant homozygous recessive for these 4 pairs of genes is 21inches tall, while a plant homozygous dominant for these 4 pairs of genes is 45 inches tall. Assume that these alleles contribute quantitatively, cumulative and equally for the height difference. A plant breeder crossed plants with genotypes of H1H1H2H2h3h3h4h4 and h1h1h2h2h3h3H4H4. Both F1 and F2 generations were observed. a. What are the heights of the parents? b. What would be the heights of the F1 plants? c. Enumerate the range of heights that you can expect in the F2 generation. Also, indicate the expected number of plants of each height. d.

The recessive phenotype, produced by the E t allele, has flowers only at the end of the stem and is called terminal. Seedpod form iS determined by a second gene. The dominant phenotype inflated is controlled by allele C, and a recessive constricted form, produced by allele c. A pure breeding axial, constricted plant is crossed to one that is pure-breeding terminal, inflated. A. The F1 progeny of this cross are allowed to self-fertilize.
