2. (15 points) True-breeding long-eared white rabbits are mated with true-breeding
short-eared gray rabbits. A test cross is performed with the F1, and the following
results are obtained
17 long-eared gray rabbits
33 long-eared white rabbits
32 short-eared gray rabbits
18 short-eared white rabbits
a. Which of the following is true? (Circle each cor
answer) (5 points)
The ear-loth gene and coat color geshow independent assortment
Short-ears are hypos
gray coat color.
The domice relationship beten the white and gray alleles cannot be
deterred from the information given
The coat color and eye color genes must be sex-linked
Ear-length and coat color are determined by a single, pleiotropic gone.
b. Calculate the genetic distance between the ear length gene and the coat color
gene. (5 points)
c. If instead of the results obtained above, the ear length and coat color genes
showed complete linkage, and white and short-ears are recessive, what would be
the ratios of phenotypes observed among the F2 from an F1 test cross? (5 points)
