Question
In watermelons, bitter fruit (B) is dominant over sweet fruit (b), and
yellow spots (S) are dominant over no spots (s). The genes for these two characteristics assort independently. A homozygous plant that has bitter fruit and yellow spots is crossed with a homozygous plant that has sweet fruit and no spots. The F1 are intercrossed to produce the F2.

- Tomato Plants In tomato plants, round fruit (R) is dominant to oval fruit (r). Pure breeding plants with red and round fruit (FFRR) were crossed to pure breeding plants with yellow and oval fruit (ffrr). The red and round F1 progeny were then testcrossed to plants that were homozygous recessive for both genes (ffrr) with the following results: Phenotypes Number of Offspring Red and round 2 255 Red and oval 290 Yellow and round 310 Yellow and oval 2 145 Convert the expected phenotypic ratio from Part A into the expected probability for each of the four phenotypes and record them in the table below. Calculate the probability for each of the four phenotypes observed in the cross from the data presented at the beginning of the question by dividing the number of progeny in each class by the total number of progeny and record these in the table below.

- In triffid plants, the color trait and the spikiness trait are controled by two loci that assort independently. A true-breeding smooth green strain of triffids is crossed to a true-breeding spiky orange strain of triffids. All of the F1 are spiky green. The geneticist then performs two additional crosses: 1. she allows the F1 to self-fertilize 2. she crosses a plant from the F1 to a smooth orange strain. Choose all statements that are TRUE: Group of answer choices orange is dominant spiky is dominant all the progeny resulting from cross 1 (the selfing) will be smooth all the plants resulting from cross 2 will be orange green is dominant all the progeny resulting from cross 1 (the selfing) will be spiky smooth is dominant there will be mixture of smooth and spiky plants in the progeny resulting from cross 1 (the selfing) All the plants resulting from cross 2 will be green there will be a mixture of green and orange plants in the progeny resulting from cross 2arrow_forwardA white Labrador retriever of the genotype BB ee was crossed with a brown retriever of the genotype bb E e.
