- Chickens, like all birds, have ZZ-ZW sex determination. The bar-feathered phenotype in chickens results from a Z-linked allele that is dominant over the allele for nonbar feathers. A barred female is crossed with a nonbarred male. The F1 from this cross are intercrossed to produce the F2. What will the phenotypes andtheir proportions be in the F1 and F2 progeny?What is a reciprocal cross? Suppose that a gene is found as a wildtype (functional) allele and a recessive mutant (nonfunctional)allele. What would be the expected outcomes of reciprocal crossesif a true-breeding normal individual was crossed to a true-breedingindividual carrying the mutant allele? What would be the results ifthe gene is maternally inherited?If a homozygous tall pea plant is crossed with a homozygous shortpea plant, what are the possible genotype and phenotype of theoffspring? Legend: T- tall pea plant t- short pea plant Genotypes of the parents: TT x tt Question to answer ff: 1. What is the genotypic ratio? 2. What are the possible phenotypes of the offspring? 3. What is the phenotypic ratio?
- A wild-type fruit fly (heterozygous for gray body color andred eyes) is mated with a black fruit fly with purple eyes. Theoffspring are wild-type, 721; black purple, 751; gray purple, 49;black red, 45. What is the recombination frequency betweenthese genes for body color and eye color? Using informationfrom problem 3, what fruit flies (genotypes and phenotypes)would you mate to determine the order of the body color, wingsize, and eye color genes on the chromosome?In a cross between a black and a white cat, all members of the Fi generation are black. The F2 generation is made up of approximately 3/4 black and 1/4 white cat. (i) Diagram this cross, showing the genotypes and phenotypes of the parents, F, and F2 generations. What is the probability that the first two offspring will be homozygous and the third is white if an Ficat is test crossed?For the mating AaBBDdGg x AabbDdGG, draw the monhybrid punnet squares, one for each of the four genes shown in the cross. Assume that all genes assort independently. What fraction of the offspring would have the phenotype A_B_D_G? What fraction of the offspring would have the phenotype aaB_ddG_?
- Parakeets can have white, blue, green or yellow feathers. Feather color in parakeets is determined by two different genes Y and B. YYBB, YYBb, YyBB, or YyBb is green; yyBB or yyBb is blue; YYbb or Yybb is yellow; and yybb is white. A green parakeet with genotype YYBB is crossed with a white parakeet. Which of the following would be expected? green offspring yellow offspring blue offspring A and B A, B, and CFruit flies having one allele for curly wings (Cy) and one allele for normal wings (Cy+) develp curly wings. Fruit flies homozygous for normal wings (Cy+) develop normal wings. When two curly-winged flies were crossed, 204 curly-winged and 98 normal-winged flies. In fact, all crosses between curly-winged flies produce nearly the same curly-winged to normal-winged ratio. How would you explain these results? The Cy allele is epistatic to the Cy+ allele. The Cy+ allelle shows partial dominance over the Cy allele. The Cy allele is dominant for the curly phenotype and is lethal when homozygous. The Cy+ allele is dominant over the Cy allele and is lethal when homozygous. The Cy+ and Cy alles are co-dominant.What are the phenotypes? What is the ratio of those phenotypes? The phenotypes would be: (a) Yellow with smooth (b) Yellow with wrinkled 3:1 Part 2: Data Tables Table 1: Parent Genotypes: Monohybrid Crosses Generation Genotype of Individual #1 Genotype of Individual #2 P Yy Ss P1 Yy Ss P2 Yy ss P3 Yy SS P4 YY SS Table 2: Generation Data Produced by Monohybrid Crosses Generation Possible Offspring Genotypes Possible Offspring Phenotypes Genotype Ratio Phenotype Ratio P yySs P1 yySs P2 Yyss P3 YySS P4 YYSS Part 2: Post-Lab Questions How much genotypic variation do you find in the randomly picked parents of your crosses?

- Human ABO blood type is controlled by the I locus and has three possible alleles. The alleles which code for type A blood (IA) and type B blood (1³) are codominant, while the allele for type O blood (i) is recessive. In a cross between a person with a genotype of lªi and a person with genotype I³i, what is the probability of having three offspring with type 0 blood? O 1/4 O 1/32 O 1/64 O 1/8 O 1/16In corn plants, a dominant allele (K) allows kernel colour and a recessive allele (k) inhibits kernel colour when homozygous. On a different chromosome, the dominant gene P causes purple kernel colour and the homozygous recessive genotype causes red kernel colour.A true breeding white corn plant was crossed with a purple corn plant, yielding 50% red corn plants and 50% purple corn plants.What are the genotypes of the parental corn plants? Select one: a. KKPp kkpp b. KkPP kkPP c. kkPp KkPp d. KKPP kkPpIn dogs, dark coat color is dominant over albino, andshort hair is dominant over long hair. Assume that theseeffects are caused by two independently assorting genes.Seven crosses were done as shown below, in which D andA stand for the dark and albino phenotypes, respectively,and S and L stand for the short-hair and long-hairphenotypes.Number of progenyParental phenotypes D, S D, L A, S A, La.
