Use the figure and the following description to answer the question. In a particular plant, leaf color is controlled by gene locus D. Plants with at least one allele D have dark green leaves, and plants with the homozygous recessive dd genotype have light green leaves. A true-breeding, dark-leaved plant is crossed with a light-leaved one, and the F1 offspring is allowed to self-pollinate. The predicted outcome of the F2 is diagrammed in the Punnett square shown in the figure, where 1, 2, 3, and 4 represent the genotypes corresponding to each box within the square. Which of the boxes marked 1-4 correspond to plants with dark leaves?

The pattern of inheritance can be predicted from data if one is given the parent or offspring genotypes or phenotypes. Two organisms, with genotypes BbDD and BBDd, are mated. Assuming independent assortment of the B/b and D/d genes, determine the genotypic ratios in offspring that would occur.

The allele for normal pigmentation (P) is completely dominated to the allele for lack of pigmentation (albino)(p). In cattle, red coat color (R) dominates black coat color (r). For an organism to exhibit either color, it must have at least one allele for normal pigment (P) production. An albino bull is crossed with a red cow. An albino bull that is heterozygous for a red coat is crossed with a red cow that is heterozygous for both normal pigment production and for red coloring. What is the probability to get black cattle?

An recessive allele is one...

A and B, whose effect is masked by a dominant allele in heterozygous condition. that produces an effect only when in the homozygous condition.

Use the following map of four genes on a chromosome to answer the question. Between which two genes would you expect the highest frequency of recombination?

A and G

In snapdragons, tall (T) is dominant to dwarf (t) and a flower color is incompletely dominant with colors expressed as red (CRCR), pink (CRCW), or white flower (CWCW). A homozygous tall, pink-flowered plant is crossed with a dwarf, pinked-flowered plant. What are all the possible phenotypes in the offspring? What is the expected phenotypic ratio? Explain your result in detail.

All of the possible phenotypes in the offspring will be tall because the homozygous tall plant is dominant over the recessive trait. When it comes to the incomplete dominance, half will be tall and pink, a fourth will be tall and red, and the last fourth will be tall and white. (Out of the 16 different outcomes). The phenotypic ratio is 1:2:1 in this outcome.

n fruit flies, white-eyed is an X-linked recessive trait (Xr). Red-eyed (XR) is dominant over white-eyed. Heterozygous female flies are crossed with red-eyed male flies. Predict the phenotypes of the offspring and the phenotypic ratio. Include the sex of the offspring. (For example: red-eyed male, white-eyed female, etc.) Explain your result in detail.

Answer: The possible phenotypes are having a homozygous red-eyed female, a heterozygous red-eyed female, a red-eyed male, and finally a white-eyed male. So only 1 of them resulted in a white-eyed offspring. This would make the phenotypic ratio be 1/4 for white-eyes.

A true breeding red bull is crossed with a true breeding white cow. All the offspring are roan cattle (meaning their fur show both red and white colors). Which extension of Mendelian laws does this example demonstrate?

Codominance

The allele for normal pigmentation (P) is completely dominated to the allele for lack of pigmentation (albino)(p). In cattle, red coat color (R) dominates black coat color (r). For an organism to exhibit either color, it must have at least one allele for normal pigment (P) production. An albino bull is crossed with a red cow. What extension of Mendelian law does this demonstrate?

Epistasis

Three babies were mixed up in a hospital. After consideration of the data below, which of the following represent the correct baby and parent combinations?

If cell X enters meiosis, and nondisjunction of one chromosome occurs in one of its daughter cells during meiosis II, how will this affect the gametes at the completion of meiosis?

One-quarter of the gametes descended from cell X will be n + 1, one-quarter will be n - 1, and half will be n.

The allele for normal pigmentation (P) is completely dominated to the allele for lack of pigmentation (albino)(p). In cattle, red coat color (R) dominates black coat color (r). For an organism to exhibit either color, it must have at least one allele for normal pigment (P) production. An albino bull is crossed with a red cow. If half of the offspring from the cross are albino, what is possibly the genotype for the red cow?

RrPp

A man who is a dwarf with achondroplasia and normal vision marries a color-blind woman of normal height. The man's father was six feet tall, and both the woman's parents were of average height. Dwarfism caused by achondroplasia is autosomal dominant, and red-green color blindness is X-linked recessive. What proportion of their sons would be color blind and of normal height?

Pseudohypertrophic muscular dystrophy is a human disorder that causes gradual deterioration of the muscles. Only boys are affected, and they are always born to phenotypically normal parents. Due to the severity of the disease, the boys die in their teens. Is this disorder likely to be caused by a dominant or recessive allele? Is the inheritance of this trait sex-linked or autosomal?

recessive ; sex-linked

In Labrador retrievers, the dominant gene B determines black coat color and bb produces chocolate brown. A separate gene E shows recessive epistasis over both the B and b alleles resulting in a golden coat (_ _ee). These two genes are on different chromosomes. Neither gene is sex-linked. A breeder wants to know the genotypes of her three dogs, so she breeds them and makes note of the offspring of several litters. Based on these results, you can infer the genotypes of her three dogs. Note: neither of these genes is sex-linked—this is an example of epistasis! This can be solved by writing down what is known about the genotypes and then using logic to "fill in the blanks" for the dogs' genotypes. Golden female (dog 1) x chocolate male (dog 2) Black female (dog 3) x chocolate male (dog 2) offspring: 4 golden, 2 black, 2 chocolate offspring: 2 golden, 3 black, 3 chocolate Answer the following: Genotype of golden female (dog 1) _________ Genotype of chocolate male (dog 2) ____________ Genotype of black female (dog 3) _________
