In cats, the genotype AA produces tabby fur color; Aa is also a tabby, and aa is black. Another gene at a different locus is epistatic to the gene for fur color. When present in its dominant W form (WW or Ww), this gene blocks the formation of fur color and all the offspring are white; ww individuals develop normal fur color. What fur colors, and in what proportions, would you expect from the cross AaWw Aa Ww?
The following pedigree shows the pattern of inheritance of red green color blindness in a family. Females are shown as circles and males as squares; the squares or circles of individuals affected by the trait are filled in red. What is the chance that a son of the third-generation female indicated by the arrow will be color-blind if the father is a normal man? If the father is color-blind?
1. In a cross between a black and a white guinea pig, all members of the F1 generation are black. The F2 generation is made up of approximately 3/4 black and 1/4 white guinea pigs. (a) Diagram this cross, showing the genotypes and phenotypes. (b) What will the offspring be like if two F2 white guinea pigs are mated?
4. In pea plants, tall (T) plants are dominant to short (t), and green pods (G) are dominant to yellow (g). Perform a Punnett square analysis for the following crosses, with the parental gametes and all possible offspring genotypes that could be produced. **Include the phenotypic ratios for the offspring. (a) TtGG × TTgg
7. In guinea pigs, black hair colour (B) is dominant and brown hair colour (b) is recessive. Long hair (L) is dominant and short hair (l) is recessive. Answer the following questions: (a) Diagram the cross: BbLl x BbLL (b) What are the phenotypes of the parent generation? (c) What are the genotypes and phenotypes of the F1 generation?
1. In guinea pigs, black coat color (B) is dominant over white (b), and short hair length (H) is dominant over long (h). a) A guinea pig that is homozygous for black coat color and heterozygous for short hair is crossed with a black coat, long-haired guinea pig which had a white-coated mother. Indicate the genotypes of each parent, their gametes, and complete a Punnett square which shows the genotypes of all offspring. b) What is the probability of obtaining offspring with the following characteristics: i) black coat color and long hair ii) a female with white coat color and short hair
1. The allele G for yellow stigma is completely dominant to green (g). Supposingtwo strains of autotetraploid plants are available and their genotypes are as follows:GGgg – in this plant the gene is close to the centromereGggg – in this plant the gene is far from the centromere If these two plants are crossed:a) provide the gametes that can be obtained from the two plants;b) provide the genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the offspring. 2. Consider the illustration below. Diagram the configuration you would observe at Anaphase I if crossing-over happens within the inversion. (IMAGE ATTACHED)
. In four-o’clocks, the allele for red flowers is incompletely dominant to the allele for white flowers, so heterozygotes have pink flowers. What ratios of flower colors would you expect among the offspring of the following crosses: (a) pink × pink, (b) white × pink, (c) red × red, (d) red × pink, (e) white × white, and (f) red × white? If you specifically wanted to produce pink flowers, which of these crosses would be most efficient?
1. In four-o’clock plants, the allele for red flower color has an effect that is incompletely dominant over the effect of the white color allele. If a cross between two plants produced 18 red, 32 pink, and 15 white plants, what are the phenotypes of the parents? 10pts 2. What ratios of flower color in four-o’clocks would you expect among the offspring of the following crosses: (a) Red x Red, (b) Red x Pink, (c) White x Pink, and (d) Pink x Pink? 10pts
1. Black fur (B) in guinea pigs is dominant over white fur (b). A homozygous black and a heterozygous black guinea pig are crossed. a) Complete the Punnett Square (it is a google drawing so you will have to double click it to go to the drawing and type in and around the square). b) What are the possible phenotypes of the offspring of this cross, and what is the chance (probability) of getting each phenotype? c) Is it possible for the recessive allele (b) to show up in future generations? Justify (explain) your answer.

1. In pea plants, yellow peas are dominant to green peas and purple flowers are dominant to white flowers. For each of the following parental crosses, give the predicted phenotypic and genotypic ratios of the F1 generation. Make punnet squares if necessary. 1. (heterozygous purple-flowered) x (heterozygous purple-flowered) 2. (true breeding white-flowered, yellow pea) x (true breeding purple-flowered, green pea) 3.

Diagram the test-cross you would conduct to determine the plant’s genotype and what results you would expect if the plant was heterozygous and if the plant was homozygous 3. You are studying five traits in Pentids, an amazonian flying beetle. You have identified each trait as belonging to separate alleles located on separate chromosomes and have categorized those alleles as A,B,C,D, and E, respectively. After years of…
