The roan coat colour in shorthorn cattle is the result of codominance of the coat colour alleles. A roan shorthorn mated with a white shorthorn. What is the probability that the offspring will be white shorthorn?

In rabbits, an allelic series helps determine coat color. The alleles, in order of dominance, are listed below. C=full coat color Cch-chinchilla Ch-himalayan c=white What is the predicted outcome for a CCh rabbit crossed with a Cchc rabbit? Draw out the cross and show the predicted genotypes and phenotypes for the offspring.

In a diploid plant species, an F1 with the genotype Mm Rr Ss is test crossed to a pure breeding recessive plant with the genotype mm rr ss. The offspring genotypes are as follows: Genotype Number Mm Rr Ss 687 Mm Rr ss 5 Mm rr Ss 68 Mm rr ss 196 mm Rr Ss 185 mm Rr ss 72 mm rr Ss 8 mm rr ss 679 Total 1900 1. What is the interference value for this data set?

In the rat, the pattern of coat color is affected by a gene with two alleles. PH is the allele for hooded, in which the animal is mostly white with color restricted to the shoulders and neck. P+ is the normal solid body color allele. These two alleles exhibit incomplete dominance, so that heterozygotes have white bellies only. A true-breeding solid strain is crossed with a true-breeding hooded strain, to produce an F₁ generation that is all white belly. The F₁ generation rats are mated with each other to produce 800 F₂ offspring. Below is a table that gives the observed number of each phenotype in the F2 and also gives you the expected number. Question: If you perform a Chi-square goodness of fit test, what is the value of Chi square X² (Express your answer to the hundredths.) solid white belly hooded Σ Observed 195 420 185 800 Expected 200 400 200 800
