9. Ishta, a female Yuan-ti, met Hisssteth, a male Yuan-ti, during sword training. He admired how quickly she moved
using her powerful legs. She, in turn, was drawn to his skill as a sword fighter, using his tail ( for which she is
homozygous) to slither about quietly with his weapon. Create a Punnett Square to show the possibilities that could
result if Ishta and Hisssteth were to mate together and lay a clutch of eggs.

If anyone can explain it it would be very helpful! Brindle coloration is a black and brown striping pattern in some dogs. This fur coloration is controlled by different alleles at a single autosomal locus. There are three alleles, KB, kbr and ky. The KB allele is dominant over the other two alleles and produces a solid black color. The allele kbr produces the brindle color pattern and is dominant over the ky allele, which produces yellow fur. Give the genotypes of the parents and offspring in each cross. P: black X yellow; F1: ½ brindle and ½ black P: black X brindle; F1: ½ black, ¼ brindle and ¼ yellow P: brindle X yellow; F1: 100% brindlearrow_forwardTrue or False: If the heritability of arm span is 0.68 in humans, then 68% of the length of a person’s arms is controlled by his/her genes.

He heard from his friend, Ta Lay that some cows do not have horns. These cows are known as polled cows. Farmer Jorge can only afford to buy one polled cow. He buys a purebred male (called a bull), with no horns. He is going to have the bull mate with his cow that is homozygous recessive for horns. Can his cows make a baby (called a calf) with no horns?

Although Laurlanthalasa, Princess of the Qualinesti elves, is known for riding into battle on a silver dragon, this is not her main form of transportation. She generally travels by way of griffon. Although the allele for a "crown" of feathers around the head is dominant, it is rarely found in the wild. This may be due to the fact that it makes the griffons stand out, thus making them less effective hunters and more visible to their natural enemies, evil chromatic dragons. This scarcity also makes them prized by elven royalty. Lauralanthalasa was given a breeding pair of bald griffons by an admirer who claims that they are both hybrids for the crowned gene. Create a Punnett Square to determine if Lauralanthalasa will have any chance using these two griffins to produce crowned offspring.

There are many statistical software packages and free web-based applications that will automate the calculation for you, but it's important to understand the calculation to understand the meaning of the calculated value. Here, we'll walk through it using a calculation table. This is Mendel's historic data for the F2 generation of monohybrid cross for flower color.

Determine first if I am asking for allele frequency or genotype/phenotype frequency. Then determine which equation is appropriate. What does p and q represent in the equations? Which equation do you use if I am asking for allele frequency? If the frequency of the recessive allele is 0.1, what is the frequency of the dominant allele? If the frequency of the dominant allele is 0.4, what is the frequency of the recessive allele? If the frequency of the dominant allele is 0.6, what is the frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype? If the frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype is 0.81, what is the frequency of the recessive allele? If the frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype is 0.25, what is the frequency of the dominant allele?
