In dogs, black coat color (B) is dominant to yellow coat color (b), and straight fur (C) is dominant to curly fur (c). The coat color gene and the fur texture gene are on different chromosomes, so they assort independently, and are not sex-linked. In a cross between two BbCc parents, given that an offspring has black coat color and straight fur, what's the probability that it is heterozygous for both genes? Give 2 digits past the decimals.

In dogs, black coat color (B) is dominant to yellow coat color (b), and straight fur (C) is dominant to curly fur (c). The coat color gene and the fur texture gene are on different chromosomes, so they assort independently, and are not sex-linked. In a cross between two BbCc parents, predict the fraction of offspring with black coat color and straight fur. Give two digits after decimals.
In the common daisy, genes A and B control flower color. Both genes have a dominant allele (A or B) and a recessive allele (a or b). At least one copy of each dominant allele is required for flowers to be colorful instead of white. (Explain and Justify your answers) 21.1) Predict the genotypes and phenotypes of the F1 progeny of a cross between two white-flowered plants, one homozygous AA and the other homozygous BB. A) AA bb, white B) aa BB, white C) Aa Bb, colorful D) Aa Bb, white E) aa bb, colorful 21.2) Predict the phenotypic ratio of the F2 progeny of a cross between two white-flowered plants, one homozygous AA and the other homozygous BB.

In silkmoths (Bombyx mori), red eyes (re) and white-banded wings (wb) are encoded by two mutant alleles that are recessive to those that produce wild-type traits (re+ and wb+); these two genes are on the same chromosome. A moth homozygous for red eyes and white-banded wings is crossed with a moth homozygous for the wild-type traits. The F1 have wild-type eyes and wild-type wings. The F1 are crossed with moths that have red eyes and white-banded wings in a testcross. The progeny of this testcross are wild-type eyes, wild-type wings red eyes, wild-type wings wild-type eyes, white-banded wings red eyes, white-banded wings a. What phenotypic proportions would be expected if the genes for red eyes and for white-banded wings were located on different chromosomes? b. What is the rate of recombination between the gene for red eyes and the gene for white-banded wings?
In Drosophila, white eyes (w) are recessive to red eyes (w+) at one locus and black body (b) is recessive to gray body (b+). A homozygous white eyes, gray bodied female is crossed with a homozygous red eyes, black bodied male to produce the F1 progeny. The F1 progeny are testcrossed and produce the following progeny: White eyes, black body: 212 White eyes, gray body: 288 Red eyes, black body: 308 Red eyes, gray body: 192 Does the evidence indicate that w and b loci are linked? Explain why or why not? If they are linked, what is the map distance between the two loci? If they are not linked, what is the map distance between the two loci? If they are linked, are the allels in the F1 in coupling or repulsion? How do you know? Draw the genotypes of all individuals described in the problem (original parents, F1, testcross, and F2 progeny) using the appropriate notation.
In Drosophila, a cross was made between a yellowbodied male with vestigial (not fully developed)wings and a wild-type female (brown body). The F1generation consisted of wild-type males and wild-typefemales. F1 males and females were crossed, and theF2 progeny consisted of 16 yellow-bodied males withvestigial wings, 48 yellow-bodied males with normalwings, 15 males with brown bodies and vestigialwings, 49 wild-type males, 31 brown-bodied femaleswith vestigial wings, and 97 wild-type females.Explain the inheritance of the two genes in questionbased on these results.
A mutant sex-linked trait called “notched” (N) is deadly in Drosophila when homozygous in females. Males who have a single N allele will also die. The heterozygous condition (Nn) causes small notches on the wing. The normal condition in both male and females is represented by the allele n. a) Indicate the phenotypes of the F1 generation from the following cross: XNXn x XnY b) Explain why dead females are never found in the F1 generation no matter which parents are crossed. c) Explain why the mating of female XNXn and a male XNy is unlikely.
