A man has a roan bull and a white cow. His first 5 calves turned to be 2 roans and 3 white. Keeping in mind the fact that the roan is a color obtained when cattle are heterozygous for the gene for red and white, how frequently (probability of the phenotypes) would you expect such as a combination of offspring as that obtained in this case?

Imagine that you are performing a cross involving seed texture in garden pea plants. You cross true-breeding round and wrinkled parents to obtain F1 offspring. Which of the following experimental results in terms of numbers of plants are closest to what you expect in the F2 progeny? a. 8lOroundseeds b. 8lOwrinkledseeds c. 405:395 round seeds:wrinkled seeds d. 610:190 round seeds:wrinkled seeds
Background: In certain types of cattle, three colors exist: white (WW), white hairs red hair (RR), red hairs roan (RW), a mixture of red and white hairs Roan is a codominant condition. Question: A breeder wants to only produce roan-colored cattle. Which of the following parents should she select to only produce roan-colored offspring? Select all that apply. a black-haired parent b white-haired parent c roan-haired parent d red-haired parent
In cows, there is a phenotype called Roan, in which a single hair has alternating bands of white and brown pigmentation, leading to an overall reddish appearance. A true-breeding white cow (homozygous recessive) is bred to a true-breeding brown cow (homozygous dominant). Among the resulting offspring, 75% are Roan and 25% are brown. Which of the following are seen these results? Select all that apply. Incomplete penetrance Variable expressivity Codominance Incomplete dominance Incorrect At least one more option should be selected. X
In cows, there is a "splotchy" phenotype that is splotches of brown and white. A true-breeding white cow (homozygous recessive) is bred to a true-breeding brown cow (homozygous dominant). In the resulting offspring, 75% have spots of brown and white and 25% are brown. The phenotype described displays what kind of relationship(s) between alleles? Incomplete penetrance Incomplete penetrance Variable expressivity Variable expressivity Incomplete dominance Incomplete dominance Codominance
In certain lizards, scaly skin is dominant to smooth skin and speckled color is dominant to grey color. These traits are inherited according to traditional Mendelian genetics (no linkage). The total progeny for a breeding pair of lizards resulted in the offspring listed below. What are the genotypes of the male and female parents? 102 scaly skinned, speckled off spring 110 smooth skinned, speckled offspring 38 scaly skinned, grey offspring 32 smooth skinned, grey offspring
In cattle, having spots (s) is recessive to being a solid color (S). If two cattle that are heterozygous for the condition mate ,What are the parental genotypes and phenotypes? What are the gametes produced by each parent? (Do a punnet square for the cross ). What proportion of their offspring will be solid in color ?
A pea plant is heterozygous for both pod shape and color. I is the allele for dominant, inflated pod; i is the allele for recessive, constricted pod. G is the allele for dominant, green pod; g is the allele for recessive, yellow color characteristic. Suppose this plant is crossed with a homozygous pea with inflated, green pod, what will be the possible genotype of the offspring? Identify the: Parents’ genes?Parents’ traits?Genes (genotype)?Shape, color? (phenotype)?Genotypic ratio?Phenotypic ratio?
A farmer crossed a tall (T) pea plant carrying yellow seeds and a dwarf pea plant (t) carrying green seeds . Tall is dominant over the dwarf and yellow is dominant over the green. Fertilization of the first generation pea plants produced a total of 16 second filial generation offsprings of the pea plants. How many tall pea plants that will have green seeds can you expect to be produced? What will be the genotype of these plants (Homozygous? Heterozygous? Or Both?).
In horses, black color (B) dominates chestnut color (b). Trotting gait dominates pacing gait (t). A cross is made between a horse homozygous for both black color and pacing gait and a horse homozygous for both chestnut color and trotting gait. The probable genotype of the offspring resulting from such a cross is and the probable phenotype of the offspring resulting from such a cross is .
Tall (T) pea plants are dominant over short (t) pea plants. What is the probability of getting 3 tall and 4 short pea plants from a cross between 2 heterozygous tall plants. (report to three nonzero digits.)
The American Curl is a breed of cat that has curly ears. The allele for the curly ears is dominant (E). Suppose a cat with the heterozygous genotype is bred to a female cat with the homozygous recessive genotype. Fill out a Punnett Square and answer the following questions. What is the phenotypic ratio of this punnett square? If this cross produces six kittens, how many of them will have curly ears? ________
Two goats are mated together. One is tall and brown and of unknown genotype. The other is a short white goat. Assuming that tall (T) is dominant to short (t) and Brown (B) is dominant to white(b), what is the probability that they will produce a short, white offspring?
