Summary Introduction

To analyze:

The preference of hummingbirds and bees among red and light pink flowers and the significant difference in their visitation rates. The reason for the preference of red flowers by hummingbirds.

Given:

The variation at a single locus called the yup caused color differences in the two species, which was found by the researchers. The gene of M. cardinalis allele C is recessive, whereas the allele L of the M. lewisii is dominant.

The genotypes CC were found to be red and the genotypes LC and LL were found to be light pink. The preference of the bees and hummingbirds were recorded. The graphs below show the visitation rates of the bees and hummingbirds.

*Example 2: Tracing the path of an autosomal dominant trait Trait: Neurofibromatosis Forms of the trait: The dominant form is neurofibromatosis, caused by the production of an abnormal form of the protein neurofibromin. Affected individuals show spots of abnormal skin pigmentation and non-cancerous tumors that can interfere with the nervous system and cause blindness. Some tumors can convert to a cancerous form. i The recessive form is a normal protein - in other words, no neurofibromatosis.moovi A typical pedigree for a family that carries neurofibromatosis is shown below. Note that carriers are not indicated with half-colored shapes in this chart. Use the letter "N" to indicate the dominant neurofibromatosis allele, and the letter "n" for the normal allele.
