- Gene “A” and gene “B” are not linked. Each has two alleles. The A allele is dominant over the a allele and the B allele is dominant over the b allele. Answer the following questions about a dihybrid (two-trait) cross. A) List all of the possible gametes (eggs) that could be produced by an individual with the genotype: aabb B) List all of the possible gametes (sperm) that could be produced by an individual with the genotype: AaBB C) Fill out a Punnett square for the dihybrid cross cross between the two individuals listed above (aabb x AaBB). What percent of the offspring from this cross would have the dominant phenotype for both traits?A cross was made between a black male dog and two different white females. The first female gave birth to eight white pups, and the second female gave birth to two white and three black pups. What are the likely genotypes of the male parent and the two female parents?In cats, black fur color is caused by an X-linked allele; the other allele at this locus causes orange color. The heterozygote is tortoiseshell. What kinds of offspring would you expect from the cross of a black female and an orange male? For full credit, you must show all work.
- In rabbits, the homozygous CC is normal, Cc results in very long legs, and cc results in very short legs. The genotype BB produces black fur, Bb brown fur, and bb white fur. Assume the leg gene and fur colour gene described above are on different chromosomes. If a cross is made between brown rabbits with very long legs and white rabbits with very long legs, what percentage of the offspring would be expected to have very long legs and white fur? Select one: O a. 25% O b. 50% О с. 100% O d. 75%In fruit flies, the following X-linked traits are found: white eyes are recessive to red eyes, ebony body is recessive to gray body, and short wings is recessive to long wings. A cross was made between wild-type males with red eyes, long wings, and gray bodies and females with white eyes, short wings, and ebony bodies. Female heterozygote resulting from this cross, which had red eyes, long wings, and gray bodies, were then crossed with males with white eyes, short wings, and ebony bodies. The F2 generation data is obtained below: 1299 white eyes, short wings, ebony bodies 1367 red eyes, long wings, gray bodies 99 white eyes, short wings, gray body 89 red eyes, long wings, ebony bodies 49 white eyes, long wings, ebony bodies 49 red eyes, short wings, gray bodies 1 red eyes, short wings, ebony bodies 1 white eyes, long wings, gray bodies A) Calculate the map distance separating the three genes B) Which gene is in the middle?In pea plants, the color yellow is dominant over the color green. If a homozygous yellow plant is crossed with a heterozygous yellow plant, what percentage of the plants will be green?
- In cats, S = short hair; s = long hair; XC = black coat; Xc = yellow coat; XCXc = tortoiseshell (calico) coat. If a long-haired yellow male is crossed with a tortoiseshell female homozygous for short hair, what are the expected phenotypic results?Coat color in mice is influenced by two genes, one for color (A) and one for the amount of pigment production (C). Mice with the wild type agouti coat color have a yellowish to brownish color. Mice also have a gene that determines the amount of pigment the hair produces. Multiple crosses were made between male and female mice that were each heterozygous for both traits (AaCc). The data table shows the number of mice of each coat type. Calculate the average F1 generation coat color to answer the question. Which of the following is the most probable interaction between the two genetic loci, A and C, based on the average F1 ratio results? A - The two loci show an epistatic pattern with the loci C epistatic to loci A. B - The two loci show a codominant pattern with both loci affecting coat color. C - The two loci interact in a Mendelian pattern with A being completely dominant over C. D - The two loci show an incomplete dominance pattern with neither loci A nor C being dominant.Coat color in mice is influenced by two genes, one for color (A) and one for the amount of pigment production (C).

- In currant moths, their Light color is sex-linked and recessive (d) to dark color (D). Question: What are the genotype and the phenotype of the parents if a certain cross yields ½ dark and ½ light colored females and all dark males? Take note that female moths are heterogametic.In pea plants, the color yellow is dominant over the color green. If a homozygous yellow plant is crossed with a heterozygous yellow plant, what will be the genotypic ratio of the offspring?In pea plants, flower color is determined by one gene with two alleles, with the allele coding for purple flowers (P) being dominant to the allele coding for white flowers (p). If two purple-flowered offspring resulting from a cross between homozygous dominant and white-flowered parents are crossed, what percentage of the progeny are expected to have the dominant phenotype?
