Consider the genetic cross for absent-mindedness, which is a dominant trait. All of the offspring from this cross will be
absent-minded. If two parents that are absent-minded have offspring that are not, what MUST be the genotypes of the
parents?
A)
aa X aa
B)
Aa X Aa
Aa X aa
D)
Aa X AA
In sexual reproduction, offspring are genetically different from the parents. This is because
What is a reciprocal cross?
Two pure-breeding mutant plants produce white flowers. When they are crossed, all of the progeny have wild-type purple flowers. What does this genetic complementation tell you?
A) The genes are part of two distinct biosynthetic pathways.
B) The two lines exhibit different mutations in the same gene.
C) More than one gene is involved in determining the phenotype.
D) The allele is pleiotropic.
E) The allele exhibits incomplete dominance.

- Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a sex- linked, recessive disease in which a mutation in the gene for dystrophin results in muscle cell degeneration. A normal man marries a woman who is a carrier for DMD. a) What are the parent genotypes? b) What are the four possible offspring genotypes from this cross? HINT - do a Punnett Square to figure this out! c) If they have four sons, how many of them will have DMD? ( d) If they have eight children, how many will be carriers of DMD?

A friend has a petunia plant with red flowers and wants to determine whether the plant is RR or Rr. A) What cross could you perform to help your friend determine the genotype of his petunia plant? B) How will this cross help you determine the genotype of your friend's red- flowered petunia?

A short-haired male is mated to a long-haired female. a) What are all possible genotypes of these two cats? b) What alleles will the gametes of each of these cats contain in their chromosomes?c) What will the kittens from all possible crosses between these two cats look like?d) Two cats are mated. One of the parent cats is long-haired. The litter which results contains two short-haired and three long-haired kittens. What length fur does the second parent have, and what is its genotype?Cats also have a locus (gene) for a character called agouti. In cats with agouti fur, pigment is unevenly distributed (see Fig. 1). The agouti allele is dominant to the allele for regular fur. A male cat who long haired and is heterozygous for agouti fur is crossed with a female who has regular, non-agouti fur and is homozygous for short fur. a) What are the genotypes of these cats? b) What are all of the possible allelic combinations in the gametes from each…arrow_forward
- In the classic "X" figure of the chromosome, is the whole X from one parent, or is one side of the X from the mother and the other side from the father?arrow_forwardThe expected ratio of phenotypes among the progeny of a test cross is 1:1:1:1. Out of 200 total resulting progeny, 48 occur in one of the four phenotypic classes. Given this information, which of the following must also be true? a)At least one additional cell must also contain a count of 48. b)The progeny of this cross do not conform to a 1:1:1:1ratio. c)The value of observed - expected for this cell = -2. d)Since 48 is so close to the expected value, there is no need to calculate chi square before drawing a conclusion about the ratio.arrow_forwardYou perform a cross between a parent with the genotype WWiiNNttEErr and another parent that is wwllnnTTeerr.
