In squirrels, bushy tail (B) is dominant to smooth tail (b), and gray coat (G) is dominant to brown coat (g). These two loci are linked. Pure-breeding gray, smooth-tailed squirrels were mated to pure-breeding brown, bushy-tailed squirrels. The F1 were testcrossed. Testcross progeny consisted of 278 gray, smooth-tailed, 21 gray, bushy-tailed, 306 brown, bushy-tailed, and 30 brown, smooth-tailed squirrels. Calculate the map distance between these two genes in centimorgans. Round your answer properly to 2 decimal digits. Type in only the numerical value for your map distance without indicating the units.

In a cross between a black and a white cat, all members of the Fi generation are black. The F2 generation is made up of approximately 3/4 black and 1/4 white cat.

type P = n! (p)* (q)"* х! (n - х)! Practice Problem: You cross a true-breeding pea plant with red flowers to a true-breeding pea plant with white flowers. All of your offspring have red flowers. Which gene is dominant? Why? What is the genotype of your offspring? You then cross the offspring to each other. What ratio do you expect? Why? You count 1000 plants and look at their flowers. Your results are as follows: 740 red 260 white Does this follow a simple Mendelian inheritance pattern? Why or why not? DADT 2 MEA SUDI ND D LUT IONS

In kangaroos, pouched kangaroos (P) are dominant over pouchless kangaroos (p) and bushy tails (B) are dominant over skinny tails (b). You perform the following cross and observe the progeny. PPBb x Ppbb To determine if the difference between the observed and expected results are due to change, you perform a chi-squared analysis.

pure-breeding yellow (Y) canaries crossed with pure breeding blue (y) canaries make green cancaries. identify the genotypic and phenotypic ratios when you cross a green with a blue. what type of inheritence pattern is this?
In the red spotted butterfly there are two traits under investigation. The wing margin can be either notched (N) or straight (n) and the wing color can be either pale yellow (b) or bright yellow (B). A bright yellow male with straight wing margins was crossed with a bright yellow female with notched wing margins. All of the resulting progeny had notched wings and both color patterns were present. From these data determine the genotypes of the butterflies used in the original cross.
