Genes at a different locus determine the background color of the shell; here yellow (C') is recessive to brown (CBw). A banded, yellow snail is crossed with a homozygous brown, unbanded snail. The F1 are then crossed with banded, yellow snails (a test cross). a. What will the results of the testcross be in the loci that control banding and color ARE linked with NO crossing over.arrow_forward
- In mice, coat color is due to the inheritance of three genes located on three different chromosomes. The A gene which determine if a yellow band is present on the hair ( A_= yellow band, aa= no yellow band ) and the B gene which determines if the hair is brown ( bb ) or Black ( B_). The A and B genes interact to produce the following coat colors: Agouti: A_B_ Cinnamon: A_bb black: aaB_ brown aabb The third gene is the C gene, which determines if the mice has any hair pigment at all. If the mouse has at least one C allele then the coat color will be determined by the A and B genes as described above. However, if the mouse is cc in genotype it will be albino, regardless of the mouse’s A and B genotype. 1.If a AabbCc mouse mates with a aaBbcc mouse, what is the probability that the mouse will be born brown?
