**Genetic Cross in Tomatoes: Dominance and Phenotype Analysis**In the study of tomato plants, certain traits exhibit dominance. Tall plant (D) is dominant over dwarf plant (d), and smooth fruit (H) is dominant over hairy fruit (h). In an experimental cross, a farmer combines a tall plant with smooth tomatoes (plant A) with a dwarf and hairy fruit plant (plant B). The results of this genetic cross yield the following offspring phenotypes:- **Tall & Smooth Fruit:** 3 offspring- **Tall and Hairy Fruit:** 84 offspring- **Dwarf and Smooth Fruit:** 88 offspring- **Dwarf & Hairy Fruit:** 4 offspring**Question:** Which of the following genotypes can represent the genotype of plant A, considering the lines symbolize homologous chromosomes?**Genotype Options:**1. ``` d h ------ d h ```2. ``` D h ------ d H ```3. ``` D H ------ d h ```4. ``` D d ------ H h ```5. ``` D H ------ D H ```**Discussion:**These options provide different combinations of alleles representing the plant's genetic makeup. Dominant alleles are represented by uppercase letters (D, H) and recessive alleles by lowercase letters (d, h). Select the genotype that accurately represents plant A as per the experimental results observed in the offspring.

You are studying three linked genes in snapdragons. The flower color locus is in the center. There are 8.3 cM between the flower color locus and the plant height locus. There are 12.4 cM between the flower color locus and the leaf type locus. The coefficient of coincidence is 0.8. Pure-breeding tall, red-flowered plants with fuzzy leaves were crossed to pure-breeding dwarf, blue-flowered plants with smooth leaves. The F1 were testcrossed. Calculate the proportion of the testcross progeny that are expected to have red flowers and fuzzy leaves. Round properly to 4 decimal digits. Answer:
In pea plants, flowers may either be axial (A) or terminal (a) flower and purple (P) or white (p). Progenies from a dihybrid cross are as follows: 51 axial purple 75 axial white84 terminal purple 64 terminal white Conduct a COMPLETE chi-square Test to determine of these results support the hypothesis that the parent plant is heterozygous for both traits.
Tomato Plants In tomato plants, round fruit (R) is dominant to oval fruit (r). Pure breeding plants with red and round fruit (FFRR) were crossed to pure breeding plants with yellow and oval fruit (ffrr). The red and round F1 progeny were then testcrossed to plants that were homozygous recessive for both genes (ffrr) with the following results: Phenotypes Number of Offspring Red and round 2 255 Red and oval 290 Yellow and round 310 Yellow and oval 2 145 Part A: Record the phenotypes and the phenotype ratio in lowest terms. Part B: Convert the expected phenotypic ratio from Part A into the expected probability for each of the four phenotypes and record them in the table below. Calculate the probability for each of the four phenotypes observed in the cross from the data presented at the beginning of the question by dividing the number of progeny in each class by the total number of progeny and record these in the table below. (Probability = Number of Progeny in Phenotype…

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.
