Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.

21. Turkeys have black, bronze, or black-bronze plumage. Examine the results of the following crosses: Parents Offspring Cross 1: black and bronze all black Cross 2: black and black 34 black, 1/4 bronze Cross 3: black-bronze and all black-bronze black-bronze Cross 4: black and bronze 2 black, 1/4 bronze, ¼ black-bronze Cross 5: bronze and black- 2 bronze, 1/2 black- bronze bronze Cross 6: bronze and 34 bronze, 14 black- bronze bronze Do you think these differences in plumage arise from incomplete dominance between two alleles at a single locus? If yes, support your conclusion by assigning symbols to each allele and providing genotypes for all turkeys in the crosses. If your answer is no, provide an alternative explanation and assign genotypes to all turkeys in the crosses.
