minks, coat color is controlled by a single gene. The allele for a brown (B) coat is dominant to the allele for silverblue (b) coats. 1. a. A homozygous brown mink was crossed with a silverblue mink. There were 9 offspring in the F1 generation. What color were they? b. Two of the offspring from the F1 generation above were mated. What would the genotypic and phenotypic ratios be in the F2 generation?

More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment Consider the following cross in pea plants, in which smooth pea shape is dominant to wrinkled, and yellow pea color is dominant to green.

Figure 12.5 In pea plants, round peas (R) are dominant to wrinkled peas (r). You do a test cross between a pea plant with wrinkled peas (genotype rr) and a plant of unknown genotype that has round peas. You end up with three plants, all which have round peas. From this data, can you tell if the round pea parent plant is homozygous dominant or heterozygous? If the round pea parent plant is heterozygous, what is the probability that a random sample of 3 progeny peas will all be round?
