In domestic cats, the dominant allele A encodes pigmented fur and the recessive allele a encodes white fur. Two cats with Aa genotypes have a litter of kittens. For each kitten, what is the probability that the kitten has pigmented fur? Hint: it may be helpful to draw a Punnett square.
In domestic cats, the allele (L) is a dominant allele for short-hair trait. The recessive allele for long hair is (I). A female cat with a LI genotype has kittens with a male cat with a II genotype.

Use Punnett Square:The letter that accompanies each trait is representative of the dominant allele. This is the letter you will use when recording the genotypic information for each trait.Read through the descriptions of each trait and determine which phenotype you express. Record your phenotypeNext, determine your genotype. If you express the dominant phenotype, you cannot determine the second allele you carry, so you must list the two possible genotypes. Record this. Question: Widow’s Peak (W): A hairline that forms a downward point in the middle of the forehead is caused by a dominant allele. A smooth hairline is caused by a recessive genotype.

Question: Eye color (B): Inheritance of eye color is controlled by multiple genes, but people having the homozygous recessive genotype have blue eyes. People who have a dominant allele may have different shades of brown, hazel, or green eyes.
In rabbits, an allelic series helps to determine coat color: C (full color), cch (chinchilla, gray color), ch (Himalayan, white with black extremities), and c (albino, all-white). The C allele is dominant over all others, cch is dominant over ch and c, ch is dominant over c, and c is recessive to all the other alleles. This dominance hierarchy can be summarized as C > cch > ch > c. The rabbits in the following list are crossed and produce the progeny shown. Give the genotypes of the parents for following cross: Phenotypes of parents Phenotypes of offspring Q. full color × full color 34 full color, 14 albino

You are studying a disorder that is based on the genetic cómposition at three loci. Assume that a dominant allele at any locus adds 7 units of risk for the disorder and that a recessive allele at any locus adds 4 units of risk for the disorder. Individuals with 26 or more units of risk develop the disorder. The environment does not affect the presence or absence of this disorder. How many risk units will be present in an individual of genotype AABbcc?
In humans, the allele for brown (B) eye color is dominant to the allele which causes blue (b) eyes. If a brown-eyed man, whose father had blue eyes marries a brown-eyed woman and the first baby of this couple has blue eyes, answer: What is the genotype of the man? What is the Genotype of the woman? What is the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratio among all possible children?
