You cross two wildtype (short-tailed) chipmunks, and collect a male offspring with a particularly long tail, which you name Dale. Tail length is controlled by the gene T, which is a maternally imprinted gene in chipmunks. Choose the best answers to complete the following statements. • Dale's allele for a long tail was inherited from the female parent. That parent did not express the long tail phenotype because the allele was inherited from father the parent's own • If one of Dale's offspring inherits the long tail allele from him, it either will or will not express that phenotype.

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
