In the "P" generation, you cross two true-breeding flies. The female parent is brown and wingless and the male parent is black with normal wings. All of the flies in the F1 generation are brown and have normal wings. Indicate the alleles associated with dominant phenotypes by uppercase letters and alleles associated with recessive phenotypes by lowercase letters. Assume the genes are not found on a sex chromosome. Indicate the color alleles as "B" and "b" the wing alleles by the letters "N" and "n". a) The genotypes of the flies in the P generation are: female and male. b) The genotype of the flies in the F1 generation is: c) You now take an F1 female and cross her to a true-breeding black, wingless male. This male's genotype is: d) You count 1600 offspring in the F2 generation. If the wing and the color traits were linked and no recombination occurred, you would expect to count: # of brown, winged flies (of the…Question 12 You are investigating gene interaction in guinea pigs.

- Question 5 You are studying a species of tree frog with skin that produces different toxins based on the genotype of the Tox locuS. Alleles E and N are codominant. Individuals homozygous for E are emetic (eating them causes vomiting), while individuals homozygous for N produce a neurotoxin. Heterozygotic frogs produce a toxin with both qualities. At the La Selva Biological Station in Costa Rica, you collect frogs from the field site and test them in the lab. You find 93 neurotoxic frogs, 113 emetic frogs, and 12 frogs with both toxic qualities. Using the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation, what are the expected numbers of frogs given their genotypes at the Tox locus? 45 NN, 108 NE, 65 EE B 93 NN, 12 NE, 113 EE 324 NN, 446 NE, 154 EE D) 198 N, 238 E Last saved 1. 67 minutes remaining P Type here to search Home DII PrtScn F8 F6 F7 F3 F4 F5Question 5 In humans, there is a gene that controls the formation of muscles in the tongue that allow people with those muscles to roll their tongues, while people who lack those muscles cannot roll their tongues.

- Question 10 In a population of mountain lions, 9% of the individuals suffer from a disease caused by a recessive allele (aa). Calculate the frequency of both the dominant and recessive alleles. 2. What is the percentage of homozygous dominant individuals and what is the percentage of heterozygous individuals in the population?Question 20 You are studying a species of butterfly whose caterpillars produce different toxins based on the genotype of the Tox locus. Alleles E and N are codominant. Individuals homozygous for E are emetic (cause vomiting), while caterpillars homozygous for N produce a neurotoxin. Heterozygotic caterpillars produce a toxin with both qualities. At the Bocas del Toro research station in Panama, you counted 45 neurotoxic caterpillars, 57 emetic caterpillars, and 82 caterpillars with both toxic qualities. Using the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation, you calculated the expected genotypic frequencies: NN= 0.218, NE= 0.498, EE= 0.284. Is this population in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium? Why/why not? A) No, because the X^2 test statistic is greater than 3.84. B) No, because the genotype frequencies do not equal 1. c) Yes, because the X^2 test statistic is greater than 3.84. D Yes, because the genotype frequencies are approximately equal to 1.
