R Wrinkled Seeds, Y Yellow Seeds, and y Green Seeds. If This Plant Is Self-Fertilized, What Are

A pea plant is heterozygous for three genes (Tt Rr Yy), where T =tall, t = dwarf, R = round seeds,
r = wrinkled seeds, Y = yellow seeds, and y = green seeds. If this plant is self-fertilized, what are
the predicted phenotypes of the offspring, and what fraction of the offspring will occur in each
category?
Pattern baldness is an example of a sex-influenced trait that isdominant in males and recessive in
females. A couple, neither ofwhom is bald, produced a bald son. What are the genotypes of
theparents?
In chickens, the Leghorn variety has white feathers due to anautosomal dominant allele. Silkies
have white feathers due to arecessive allele in a second (different) gene. If a true-breedingwhite
Leghorn is crossed to a true-breeding white Silkie, what isthe expected phenotype of the F1
generation? If members of theF1 generation are mated to each other, what is the expected
phenotypic outcome of the F2 generation? Assume the chickens in theparental generation are
homozygous for the white allele at one gene and homozygous for the brown allele at the other
gene. In subsequent generations, nonwhite birds will be brown.

In Ayrshire cattle, the spotting pattern of the animals can be eitherred and white or mahogany
and white. The mahogany and whitepattern is caused by the allele M. The red and white
phenotype iscontrolled by the allele m. When mahogany and white animals aremated to red and
white animals, the following results are obtained:
Genotype Phenotype Females Males
MM Mahogany and white Mahogany and white
Mm Red and white Mahogany and white
mm Red and white Red and white

A woman with type B blood has a child with type O blood. Whatare the possible genotypes and
blood types of the father?
In Shorthorn cattle, coat color is controlled by a single gene thatcan exist as a red allele (R) or
white allele (r). The heterozygotes (Rr) have a color called roan that looks less red than the
RRhomozygotes. However, when examined carefully, the roan phenotypein cattle is actually due
to a mixture of completely red hairs andcompletely white hairs. Should this be called incomplete
dominance,codominance, or something else? Explain your reasoning. By Brainly
A human disease known as vitamin D-resistant rickets is inheritedas an X-linked dominant trait.
If a male with the disease produceschildren with a female who does not have the disease, what is
theexpected ratio of affected and unaffected offspring?
Incontinentiapigmenti is a rare, X-linked dominant disorderin humans characterized by swirls of

pigment in the skin. If an
affected female, who had an unaffected father, has children withan unaffected male, what would
be the predicted ratios of affectedand unaffected sons and daughters?
In dogs, wire hair (S) is dominant to smooth (s). In a cross of a homozygous wire-
haired dog with a smooth-haired dog, what will be the phenotype and genotype of
the F1 generation? What would be the ratio of wire-haired to smooth-haired dogs in
the F2generation ?
In northeast Kansas there is a creature know as a wildcat. It comes in three colors,

blue, red, and purple. This trait is controlled by a single locus gene with incomplete
dominance. A homozygous (BB) individual is blue, a homozygous (bb) individual is
red, and a heterozygous (Bb) individual is purple. What would be the genotypes and
phenotypes of the offspring if a blue wildcat were crossed with a red one? What are
the genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the F2generation?
Suppose you have two rose plants, both with pink flowers. You cross the two plants
and are surprised to find that, while most of the offspring are pink, some are red and
some are white. You decide that you like the red flowers and would like to make
more. What cross would you perform to produce the most red flowered plants? Your
mother decides she would like some of the pink flowered roses. Which cross would
give you the most pink flowered plants?
A naturalist visiting an island in the middle of a large lake observes a species of small
bird with three distinct types of beaks. Those with short, crushing beaks (BB)
consume hard shelled nuts, those with long, delicate beaks (bb) pick the seeds from
pine cones, and those with intermediate beaks (Bb), consume both types of seeds
though they are not as good at either. Assume that this difference in beak
morphology is the result of incomplete dominance in a single locus gene. Which of
the mated pairs will have the best adapted offspring in a year in which most of the
food available is in the form of hard shelled nuts? What would be the phenotypic
ratio of the F1 generation resulting from a cross of Bb x bb? How many offspring of an
intermediate x short beak cross will have long beaks (assume 4)?
Carrion beetles lay their eggs in dead animals and then bury them in the ground until they
hatch. Assume that the preference for fresh meat (F) is dominant to the preference for rotted
meat and that the tendency to bury the meat shallow (S) is dominant to the tendency to bury the
meat deep. Suppose a female carrion beetle homozygous dominant for both traits mates with a
male homozygous recessive for both traits. What will be the genotype of the F1 generation?What
will be the phenotype of the F1 generation?What will be the genotypic ratio of the F2 generation?
Which of the following genetic crosses would be predicted to give a phenotypic ratio of 9:3:3:1?
A. SSYY x ssyy
B. SsYY x SSYy
C. SsYy x SsYy
D. SSyy x ssYY
E. ssYY x ssyy
