The allele for brown hair colour (B) is dominant over the allele for blonde hair (b). The father of a son with brown hair is homozygous for brown hair. His mother has blonde hair. Use a schematic labelled diagram to illustrate this data up to the F1 generation. QUESTION 8 8.1 (Use the key: B- brown andb- blonde) 8.2 If this son marries a blonde woman, draw the cross diagram to show the possible offspring of brunettes (brown hair) and blondes (blonde hair). 8.2.1 What is the probability (in %) that their children will be brunettes? 8.2.2 What is the probability (in %) that their children will be blondes? 8.2.3 What % of the children will be homozygotes? 8.3 If there was no probability of this son and the blonde woman having a blonde child what would the son's genotype be? Explain your answer. QUESTION 9 A red carnation and a white carnation were cross-pollinated. All the plants that grew from this cross had pink flowers. 9.1 Explain this phenomenon. Explain, using a Punnett diagram, whether the red and white carnations were heterozygous or homozygous. 9.2 QUESTION 10 A male cat is homozygous for black fur colour. He mates with a white female cat, which is also homozygous for fur colour. Their five kittens are all grey. There are three males and two females. One of the grey female cats mates with a male from the same litter. Use B for black and W for white fur to answer the following questions. 10.1 Which phenomenon caused all kittens of the first litter to be grey? Explain. 10.2 Indicate the... 10.2.1 genotypic ratio; and 10.2.2 genotypic percentage (%) of the second litter. 10.3 Indicate the... 10.3.1 phenotypic ratio; and 10.3.2 phenotypic percentage (%) of the second litter. 10.4 What % of kittens do not look like their mother or father? 10.5 What would the phenotypic % of the second litter be if black fur is dominant or white fur? 1.64
