For a particular rodent, black fur is dominant over brown fur, and a long tail is dominant over a short tail. Give the possible genotypes and phenotypes of the possible offspring that could result from the breeding of a homozygous black fur and heterozygous tail rodent and a rodent of heterozygous for both traits.
In swordfish, long tails (T), long sword (S), dark scales (D), and the ability to fight (F) are all dominant traits. What possible genotype could a long-tailed, short-sword, light scaled, fighting swordfish have?
Assume color in salamanders follows simple dominance and recessive patterns. A green salamander of unknown genotype pairs with a white homozygous recessive salamander (gg). Complete Punnett squares D and E for the two possible genotypes.

You have just discovered two new species whose beaks are markedly different, which you have named Laetiphonia orthorhynchus and Laetiphonia rhamphis. In particular, the beaks of L. orthorhynchus are very long, straight and pointed, whereas L. rhamphis have beaks that are quite short, wide and curved downwards. In further studies, you find that the same gene codes for beak shape in both species. In your own words, explain at least two ways that changes in gene expression could result in the differences you observe between these two species. Make sure to be specific in how your explanation applies to the bird species in this example.arrow_forward
