Mendel's Law of Segregation states that traits can be inherited independently of other traits. Forexample, the trait for freckles is not linked to a particular hair color. Dark haired individuals couldhave freckles, much like light haired individuals could have freckles. In order to investigate this,Mendel crossed pea plant parents and followed 2 distinct (separate) traits to see if they would beinherited together. We can also look at this using corn because corn kernels can be different colors,purple (C) or yellow (c) and also different textures, smooth (T) or wrinkly (t). Crosses that follow theinheritance of two traits are called dihybrid (2 trait) crosses, and they require a much larger PunnettSquare. Dihybrid Punnett Squares still follow the same format as a monohybrid Punnett square.For this question, study the dihybrid Punnett Square below, and fill in the missing information, andthen answer the following questions: (again case matters when writing the allele letters!)1. Do color and kernel texture follow Mendel's Law of Segregation? Yes or No2. What alleles are represented in site A:3. What alleles are represented in site B:4. What alleles are represented in square C:5. What alleles are represented in square D:6. What percentage of kernels express both dominant phenotypes (round the number)?Parent 1: CcTtCTCtCTB Pearson eTextP Pearson Sign InFor this question, study the dihybrid Punnett Square below, and fill in the missing information, andthen answer the following questions: (again case matters when writing the allele letters!)1.
