- Two mice with gray fur are crossed. They produce 15 gray, 8 black, and 6 white offspring. In one paragraph, using your own words, explain the inheritance of these colors in the mice. What phenotypes would you expect in the offspring of a cross between a gray mouse and a white mouse? Be sure to include proper spelling, grammar, and punctuation.arrow_forwardIn fruit flies, L= long wings and l = short wings. When a long-winged fly is crossed with a short winged fly, the offspring exhibit a 1:1 ratio. What is the genotype of the parental flies?arrow_forwardIn chickens, a condition referred to as “creeper” exists whereby the bird has very short legs and wings, and appears to be creeping when it walks. If creepers are bred to normal chickens, one-half of the offspring are normal and one-half are creepers. Creepers never breed true. If bred together, they yield two thirds creepers and one-third normal. Propose an explanation for the inheritance of this condition.arrow_forward
- In bears fur colour can be either yellow or tan, and is determined by two alleles of the C gene. A heterozygous bear is observed to present a fur pattern of yellow and tan patches. Explain why this can occur.arrow_forwardA variegated trait in plants is analyzed using reciprocal crosses. The following results are obtained: Variegated female × Normal male ↓ 1024 variegated + 52 normal Normal female × Variegated male ↓ 1113 normal + 61 variegated Explain this pattern of inheritance.arrow_forwardA snapdragon plant with violet flowers was crossed with another such plant with white flowers. The F1 progeny obtained had pink flowers. Explain, in brief, the inheritance pattern seen in offsprings of F1 generation?arrow_forward
- In certain cactus, prickly spines can be two-pronged or one-pronged. If a homozygous one-pronged cactus is crossed with a homozygous two-pronged cactus, the F1 generation has a mixture of spines (some are two-pronged, some are one-pronged). a. What are the genotypes of the parents and F1s?b. What mode of inheritance is exhibited? c. If the F1s were crossed, what proportion of the F2s will have genotypes like their parents?arrow_forwardA different walnut rooster was crossed to a rose hen, and all the progeny were walnut.

- In peas, yellow pods are dominant to green pods. Show the results of a cross between a pure yellow plant and a hybrid yellow plant.arrow_forwardIn pea plants round seeds are dominant to wrinkled seeds. If a pea plant heterozygous for seed shape is crossed with a pea plant with wrinkled seeds, what percentage of their offspring will be heterozygous?arrow_forwardMendel performs a cross using a true-breeding pea plant with round, yellow seeds and a true-breeding pea plant with green, wrinkled seeds. What is the probability that offspring will have green, round seeds? Calculate the probability for the F1 and F2 generations.arrow_forward
