In northeast Kansas there is a creature known as a wildcat. It comes in three colors, blue, red, and purple.
-
- This trait is controlled by a single locus gene with incomplete dominance.
- What would be the genotype and
phenotype ratios of the offspring if a blue wildcat were crossed with a purple one? Show all work.

- The results of a test cross of a fruit fly that is heterozygous for three traits encoded by the genes E, D, and A summarized below. You can see numbers of offspring that inherited each combination of alleles from heterozygous parent. Use this data to calculate a frequency of recombinations and to make a map. 131 eda eDA 1779 Eda 1654 EdA 13 EDa 241 EDA 118 edA 252 eDa 9 total: 4197arrow_forwardFour coat color phenotypes occur in mice, Cream (C), Brown (R), Gray (G) and Black (B). Use the following crosses to determine the dominance sequence of the alleles and indicate the parental genotypes. Cross Parent Phenotype |Offspring Parental Genotypes Gray X Black 10 Gray 2 Black X Cream 5 Black, 5 Brown 3 Brown X Brown 7 Brown, 3 Cream 4 Gray X Brown 5 Gray, 5 Blackarrow_forwardPlease read the scenario below, and then answer the question (in bold) that follows. In cats, the allele (B) produces a black coat color and the allele (b) produces a yellow coat color. These alleles are incompletely dominant to each other. A heterozygote produces a tortoise shell coat color. The alleles (B) and (b) are also sex-linked (i.e., they are carried on the X chromosome), and cats possess an XX-XY sex determination system, like humans. If a female cat with a tortoise shell coat mated with a male cat who had a yellow coat... What percentage of their offspring will have tortoise shell coats? a. 0% b. 25% c. 50% d. 75% e. 100%arrow_forward
- In lab mice, reddish-brown coat phenotype is termed “red”. The gene for coat color is X-linked. The allele for white coat (Xw) is recessive to the allele for red coat (X+). The table below shows the results of a few crosses of mice parents. What are the genotypes of the parents? Results: 98 red male, 111 male offspring 204 red female offspring When Male and Female Parents are redarrow_forwardFeather colour in parakeets is controlled by two genes. Blue colour (B) is dominant over absence of colour (b). Yellow colour (Y) is dominant over absence of colour (y). When a B allele and a Y allele are present, a green parakeet is produced.The probability of obtaining a female or male parakeet is the same as for humans. A green parakeet crossed with a white parakeet produced offspring with four different colour patterns.What is the genotype of the green parakeet? Answerarrow_forwardIn the red spotted butterfly there are two traits under investigation. The wing margin can be either notched (N) or straight (n) and the wing color can be either pale yellow (b) or bright yellow (B). A bright yellow male with straight wing margins was crossed with a bright yellow female with notched wing margins. All of the resulting progeny had notched wings and both color patterns were present. From these data determine the genotypes of the butterflies used in the original cross.arrow_forward
