10) Two pure-breeding phlox plants were crossed, one with dark-blue flowers and the other with pinl The Fi generation all had dark-blue flowers. When the F₁ were crossed with each other, the F₂ generati consisted of 176 plants: 101 with dark-blue flowers, 33 with light-blue flowers, 30 with red flowers, ar pink flowers. 10) What progeny types would result from crossing pure-breeding plants with light-blue flowen breeding plants with red flowers? A) all would be dark blue B) 1 light blue: 1 red C) 9 dark blue: 3 light blue: 3 red: 1 pink D) all would be red
In autotetraploid Chinese primrose (Primula sinensis L.), the gene controlling stigma color is very near the centromere of the chromosome carrying it. The allele G for green stigma is dominant to g for red stigmas. A homozygous green autotetraploid strain is crossed with a homozygous red autotetraploid strain. Each of the F1 GGgg plants would obtain 12 gametes which are 2GG, 8Gg, and 2g. How were these obtained?
In the video game Animal Crossing: New Horizons, flowering breeding is based in genetics. Each flower's color is determined by the genotype at three or four unlinked genes: R, Y, W, and S. The genotype of the elusive blue rose is RR YY ww ss. In the game, one way to get a blue rose is to cross two roses with the Rr Yy Ww ss genotype. A) What types of gametes and in what proportions will a Rr Yy Ww ss rose produce? B) In a cross Rr Yy Ww ss x Rr Yy Ww ss what are the possible offspring genotypes and at what frequency will they each appear? Show your work. C) What proportion of the offspring of the cross will be blue roses?

In the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, the following alleles were used in a cross: T = presence of trichomes t = absence of trichomes D = tall plants d = dwarf plants W = waxy cuticle w = nonwaxy A = presence of purple anthocyanin pigment a = absence (white) The T/t and D/d loci are linked 26 m.u. apart on chromosome 1, whereas the W/w and A/a loci are linked 8 m.u. apart on chromosome 2. A pure-breeding double-homozygous recessive trichomeless nonwaxy plant is crossed with another pure-breeding double-homozygous recessive dwarf white plant. a. What will be the appearance of the F1? b. Sketch the chromosomes 1 and 2 of the parents and the F1, showing the arrangement of the alleles.c. If the F1 is testcrossed, what proportion of the progeny will have all four recessive phenotypes?

In roses, purple flower color is determined by the dominant P allele, while pphomozygotes are white. The presence of long stems is determined by the dominant S allele, while ss homozygotes have short stems. Both mutations are completely penetrant. A test cross was performed between a rose plant of unknown genotype with a white flowered, short stemmed rose plant (pp ss) and the following 200 progeny plants were obtained: 84 white flowers, long stems 16 purple flowers, long stems 82 purple flowers, short stems 18 white flowers, short stems Select two statements below that are TRUE. options: The P and S genes independently assort during meiosis. The map distance between P and S is 17 cM. The genotype of the progeny plants with purple flowers and short stems is PP ss. The map distance between P and S is 83 cM. The homologs in the plant with…
