1- In garden peas, yellow (Y) seed color is dominant to green (y). Because yellow and green are two different forms of the same gene (seed color), they are alleles. Use a Punnett square to show a cross between two heterozygous pea plants. What are the phenotype(s) of the offspring? What are the genotype(s) of the offspring? 2- In garden peas, yellow (Y) seed color is dominant to green (y). Because yellow and green are two different forms of the same gene (seed color), they are alleles. Use a Punnett square to show a cross between two heterozygous pea plants. What are the phenotype(s) of the offspring? What are the genotype(s) of the offspring? Use the information below to answer questions 3-6 There may be a number of possible alleles for a given gene within a population. In a multiple allele system the dominance relationships between the various alleles must be considered. One of the more familiar examples of a multiple allelic system is that of the human ABO blood group. The gene…

/a2 = 32 Familier, d. at least one girl? 3/32 = 968 Familier In squash, fruit color is determined by one gene and fruit shape by another independently segregating gene. The white fruit allele (W) is dominant to yellow fruit allele (w) and disk shape fruit allele (D) is dominant to round-shaped fruit allele (d). A cross between a white-colored, disk-shaped squash and a white colored, round-shaped squash resulted the following offspring: 31 white, disk; 29 white, round; 9 yellow, disk; 10 yellow, round.

For the purpose of the assignment, we will refer to XY individuals as male and XX individuals as female. In humans, colorblindness (b) is an example of an X-linked recessive trait. In this problem, a male with colorblindness XbY marries a female who is not colorblind but is a carrier of the colorblindness allele (XXb). Using a Punnett square, determine the genotypic and phenotypic probabilities (as percentages) for their potential offspring. Give the percentages in numbers, without the percent sign, for each genotype and phenotype. Genotypes XX Xxb xbxb XY xby Phenotypes Consider females (XX) individuals only. In the two questions below, I am asking for the % of females, not % of all people. What is the % of females who are not colorblind? What is the% of females who are colorblind? Now consider makes (XX) individuals only. In the two questions below, I am asking for the % of

One example of a polygenic trait is the length of ears of corn. Suppose that the shortest ears of corn are about 6 cm, while the longest ears of corn are about 18 cm. The following table represents the F2 offspring of a test cross between a short-eared and a long-eared corn plant: Length of 5-7 cm 8-10 cm |11-13 14-16 |17-19 ears of corn cm cm cm Number of 20 F2 offspring 83 |126 85 21 What are the ratios of F2 offspring that express the extreme short or long-eared phenotype? Based on the ratios above, calculate the number of polygenes likely to be involved in ear length for corn.
