Summer squash color is determined by the interaction of more than one gene. The presence of CC or Cc allele combinations produces a squash that is white in color, and the C allele is epistatic to the G allele. The presence of GG or Gg produces a squash that is yellow in color, and ccgg produces a squash that is green. After two fully heterozygous squash are crossed. Give the phenotypes, and frequency of occurrence, of the F2 offspring

In rabbits, an allelic series helps determine coat color. The alleles, in order of dominance, are listed below. C=full coat color Cch-chinchilla Ch-himalayan c=white What is the predicted outcome for a CCh rabbit crossed with a Cchc rabbit? Draw out the cross and show the predicted genotypes and phenotypes for the offspring.
Fruit fly body color is wild type (meaning normal) Gray = B+ and black = b Fruit fly wing type is wild type normal wings = vg+ and vg = vestigial A fly which was heterozygous for both traits was crossed with a fly that was recessive for both traits. Write the genotype and phenotype that would be expected from this cross. Write the genotype and phenotype percentages that would be expected from this cross.
In mice, the presence of AA alleles give rise to the agouti fur color, AAY gives rise to a yellow fur color, and AYAY is lethal, causing mice to die before birth. The B allele results in pigment formation and is dominant over the b allele. The bb genotype results in no pigment formation and gives an albino fur color irrespectively of the presence of the AA or AAY alleles. In the following cross between a yellow and agouti mice, what would be the expected proportion of agouti fur mice among the live offspring? AAY Bb X AA Bb 1/2 1/4 3/8 1/3 3/4
In guinea pigs, the black coat (B) is dominant over the white coat (b), and straight hair (H) is dominant over curly hair (h). Using a Punnett square, complete the cross between a heterozygous black, curly-haired individual and a homozygous straight-haired, white individual. State the parent genotypes and gametes, and the F1 phenotypes and genotypes.
In the following cross, imagine that you have a female fly that has two Xs and one Y due to a nondisjunction event in her mother's germ cells. Draw out what the possible gametes are for both the female and the male and also a Punnett square showing the genotypes, phenotypes, and sex of the possible flies as a result of this cross. You do not need to provide the probabilities of each of these. Red-eyed wi C Ở Red-eyed wt XX Y X Y Meiosis
Perform two consecutive crosses similar to those of Mendel for the following individual plants. Plants with round seeds (RR) are crossing with plants with wrinkled seeds (rr). After the first cross, cross the offspring together to generate F2 offspring. What are the genotypic and phenotypic ration of F2?
Mouse fur color is affected by TWO unlinked loci. GG or Gg mice are agouti. Mice with genotype gg are albino since all pigment production is blocked, regardless of the phenotype at the second locus. At the other locus, the F allele (agouti coat) is dominant to the f allele (black coat). How many black mice would result from a cross between two agouti mice of genotype GgFf? (just write in the numeral)
Colored aleurone in the kernels of corn is due to the dominant allele R. The recessive allele r, when homozygous, produces colorless aleurone. The plant color (not the kernel color) is controlled by another gene with two alleles, Y and y. The dominant Y allele results in green color, whereas the homozygous presence of the recessive y allele causes the plant to appear yellow. In a testcross between a plant of unknown genotype and phenotype and a plant that is homozygous recessive for both traits, the following progeny were obtained: colored, green 88 colored, yellow 12 colorless, green 8 colorless, yellow 92 Explain how these results were obtained by determining the exact genotype and phenotype of the unknown plant, including the precise arrangement of the alleles on the homologs.
Two corn plants heterozygous for purple and smooth kernels are crossed. What is the chi-squared value? Purple and smooth: 12 Purple and shrunken: 9 Yellow and smooth: 7 Yellow and shrunken: 6
In cocker spaniels, curly hair is dominant to straight hair. Two heterozygous dogs are crossed. List the possible genotypes of the expected offspring.
Radishes may be round, oval and lomg. Aside from this, they may be red, purple or white in color. Red x white produces progeny, all of which are purple. If purple oval will be crossed with purple oval, how many types of phenotypes will appear? If purple oval are crossed with white, long radishes, then what genotypic and phenotypic ratios exist in the progeny? Indicate the phenotypes of the offspring.
The phenotype of spotting in dogs (A) is dominant to no spots (a). When 2 heterozygous spotted dogs are crossed (Aa X Aa), the outcome is shown below: 2/3 Spots 1/3 No Spots What is the best explanation for this outcome, and what are the genotypes of spotted and non-spotted offspring?
