Two wild-type rabbits each have the genotype of EeHh. E is the dominant allele (for normal size) and H is the dominant allele for normal hair. Part 1. In theory, if these rabbits mated, and there were there 400 rabbits in the F1 generation, how many of those rabbits would you expect to be hairless and normal size? (Hint: first determine the genotype that produces the phenotype given, then calculate what proportion of the offspring you expect to have that genotype). 50 75 100 150 225 O O O O O

In fruit flies, the allele for normal wings (V) is dominant to the allele for short wings (v). Suppose two fruit flies heterozygous for the trait are mated. What is the male fruit fly’s genotype and the female fruit fly’s genotype? What is the male fruit fly’s phenotype and the female fruit fly’s phenotype? What will be the genotypic ratio of the F1 generation? What will be the phenotypic ration of the F1 generation?
In fruit flies, red eye color (R) is dominant over brown eye color (r). Two red-eyed fruit flies were mated and they produced the following offspring: 73 red-eyed flies; 27 brown-eyed flies. In the offspring, what is the approximate ratio of red-eyed to brown-eyed fruit flies?
A fruit fly with a gray body and red eyes (genotype BbPp) is mated with a fly having a black and purple eyes (genotype bbpp). Show diagrammatically a genetic cross between the two flies and the possible genotypes and phenotypes of F1. What ratio of offspring would you expect if the body-colour and eye-colour genes are on different chromosome (unlinked)? When mating is actually carried out, most of the offspring look like the parents, but 3% have a gray body and purple eyes, and 3% have a black body and red eyes. Compare and discuss the observation with your answer in part (
In dogs, a dominant gene (1) determines white coat, and a recessive gene (i) gives colored coat. In the presence of ii the coat color is black due to the dominant gene B, or brown due to the recessive gene b. Two dogs both having the Bbli genotype were mated. Answer the following questions and show complete solutions to support your answers. Use the branching method whenever applicable. What is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring? What type of gene interaction is exhibited by the coat color in dogs? What would be the probability of getting dogs that are pure-breeding for a black coat color? 3. a. b. C.
With regard to scurs in cattle ( a sex influenced trait) a cow with no scurs whose mother had scurs had offspring with a bull with scurs whose father had no scurs. What are their probabilities of having the following combinations?a. their first offspring will not have scursb. their first offspring will be a male with no scursc. their first three offspring will be females with no scurs step by step explain in details please!!!!
A male fly that is homozygous for both red eyes (A) and normal wings (B) mates with a female fly that has apricot (a) eyes and pointed wings (b). Both traits are controlled by autosomal alleles. Using the information provided above, answer the following two questions (Question 1 AND 2): What is the expected phenotype for the flies in the F1 generation? What is the expected genotype for the flies in the F1 generation?
In dogs, a dominant gene (I) determines white coat, and a recessive gene (i) gives colored coat. In the presence of ii the coat color is black due to the dominant gene B, or brown due to the recessive gene b. Two dogs both having the Bbli genotype were mated. Answer the following questions and show complete solutions to support your answers. Use the branching method whenever applicable.a. What is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring?b. What type of gene interaction is exhibited by the coat color in dogs?c. What would be the probability of getting dogs that are pure-breeding for a black coat color?
In hamsters, black fur (B) is dominant over brown fur (b) and long fur (L) is dominant over short fur (l). A black, long furred female whose mother had brown fur and whose father had short fur is mated with a black, short furred male whose father had brown, long fur. What is the probability that the first offspring will have either brown, long fur or black, short fur? What is the probability that the first offspring will have brown, long fur and the second black, short fur?
In humans, curly hair is dominant to straight hair. A woman heterozygous for curly hair marries a man with straight hair and they have children. a. What is the probability that the first child will have curly hair? b. What is the probability that in a family of four children 3 will be curly and 1 will be straight haired? c. What is the probability that the first three children will be curly-haired girls and the next will be a straight haired boy?
(This one is more complicated). Two true breeding fruit flies are allowed to mate. One fly ishomozygous dominant for body color and eye color while the other is homozygous recessive forbody color and eye color. (g+:gray body, g:black body, e+:ebony eyes, e:red), The F1 flies areallowed to mate. What are the following probabilities in the F2 generation? For this problemmake sure to show the Punnett Square for your F2 generation and all of your calculations. Youdo not need to show the Punnett Square for the F1 generation. Answer in percent and round to 2decimals.a. Two of three fruit flies are gray and red.b. The first fruit fly is gray and ebony, the second fruit fly is gray and red, and the third fruit fly is black and ebony.
Hairlessness in dogs is inherited from a single dominant allele. Inheriting two dominant alleles is lethal for the embryo. Penelope, a hairless dog, is wildly attracted to a hairy dog, Arnold. They mate. The probability that Arnold's sperm fertilizing Penelope's oocyte results in a happy, hairless puppy is: O 1/2 O 3/4 O 1/3 Ο 1/4 O 2/3
Two genes control color in corn snakes as follows:O– B– snakes are brown, O– bb are orange, oo B– areblack, and oo bb are albino. An orange snake wasmated to a black snake, and a large number of F1progeny were obtained, all of which were brown.When the F1 snakes were mated to one another, theyproduced 100 brown offspring, 25 orange, 22 black,and 13 albino.a. What are the genotypes of the F1 snakes?b. What proportions of the different colors wouldhave been expected among the F2 snakes if the twoloci assort independently?
