You are conducting an experiment studying sex linked traits. I. The experiment you cross 2 different fruit Flys. The female fruit fly has red eyes and the male fruit fly has white eyes. In the first generation, both male and female Flys both have red eyes. After crossbreeding the offspring, you acquire the data given in the chart for the f2 generation. What would be the expected phenotypic ratio for a male sex linked trait in an f2 generation? Give a chi square analysis to determine if your previous answer is correct.
When you decide to breed your Labrador retriever Molly and sell the puppies, you discover that two of Mollys four siblings have developed a hip disorder that is traceable to the action of a single recessive allele. Molly herself shows no sign of the disorder. If you breed Molly to a male Labrador that does not carry the recessive allele, can you assure a purchaser that the puppies will also be free of the condition? Explain your answer.
Imagine that you are performing a cross involving seed color in garden pea plants. What traits would you expect to observe in the F1 offspring if you cross true-breeding parents with green seeds and yellow seeds? Yellow seed color is dominant over green. a. only yellow-green seeds b. only yellow seeds c. 1:1 yellow seeds:green seeds d. 1:3 green seeds:yellow seeds
You decide to breed a pair of guinea pigs, one black and one white. In guinea pigs, black fur is caused by a dominant allele (B) and white is due to homozygosity for a recessive allele (b) at the same locus. Your guinea pigs have seven offspring, four black and three white. What are the genotypes of the parents? Why is there a 1:1 ratio in this cross?
In a mystical bird species, birds with the dominant allele C are white, whereas birds homozygous for the recessive allele care colored. This species also have a second locus that acts as a modifier gene if the bird is colored. If birds are colored and are G- at the second locus, they will be yellow. If they are colored and gg at the second locus, they will be green. You cross a double heterozygous bird and a double homozygous recessive (CcGg x ccgg). What percentage of the offspring will be yellow, and what percentage will be white? O 50, 25 O25, 25 O 33,33 50, 50 25, 50
Perform the following crosses: A. If having a widow's peak is dominant to having a straight hair line. What percentage of the offspring of a heterozygote with a homozygous recessive will have a widow's peak? B. Using what you have learned, predict the phenotypes of the offspring in this cross. G = grey g= brown L = long hair A GGLL mates with a ggll. 1 = short hair
a. State a hypothesis explaining the inheritance of flower color in painted tongues. b. Assign genotypes to the parents, F₁ progeny, and F2 progeny for all five crosses. c. In a cross between true-breeding yellow and true-breeding lavender plants, all of the F1 progeny are bronze. If you used F₁ plants to produce and F2 generation, what phenotypes in what ratios would you expect? Are there any genotypes that might produce a phenotype that you cannot predict from earlier experiments, and if so, how might this alter the phenotypic ratios among the F2 progeny?
Black fur is dominant over gray. If a father is heterozygous dominant and the mother is homozygous recessive, a1. what are the genotype probabilities of their offspring? a2. what are the phenotype probabilities of their offspring?
In pea plants, the allele for round seeds (R) is dominant and the allele for wrinkled seeds (r) is recessive. Under what conditions would we observe wrinkled seeds in a pea plant?A. When the plant has a genotype RRB. When the plant inherits a dominant allele from both parentsC. When the plant inherits a recessive allele from both parentsD. When a plant has a heterozygous allelic pair of the gene for seed shape
You have just discovered a new species of squirrel with red eyes! In addition, you have determined that red eyes are a recessive trait that follow Mendelian patterns of inheritance. The dominant trait results in dark brown eye color. You observe a red eyed female squirrel with two offspring: one with red eyes and the other with dark brown eyes. What is the genotype of the father? A. Homozygous dominant B. Homozygous recessive C. None of the above D. Heterozygous
