In horses, height is controlled by incomplete dominance. The two alleles are Tall (T) and short (T’). The heterozygous genotype is expressed as medium height. A medium sized horse is crossed with a short horse. What is the probability of producing a short horse? Make a Punnett Square on a piece of paper to help you answer the question.

Concept explainers

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
