typic ratio of offspring will be produce by this cross?

1.      Your ability to roll your tongue is controlled by two alleles that segregate according to Mendel’s segregation principle. The allele for being able to roll your tongue (R) is dominant. The allele for not being able to roll your tongue (r) is recessive. In a cross between two parents who are both heterozygous for the tongue-rolling trait, what will the phenotypic ratio of the offspring be?

 

2.      Large Kings (W) is a dominant trait in dragons. Small Kings (w) is recessive. If both parents are heterozygous for wing size, what is the probability that an offspring will have small wings?

 

3.      In a gene for cystic fibrosis, CF+ represents the dominant healthy allele and CF- the recessive disease allele. Human eye color is usually inherited as if the allele for brown eyes (B) is dominant and the allele for blue eyes (b) is recessive. In a cross in which both parents are heterozygous for cystic fibrosis and eye color, what would the phenotypic ratio for the offspring be if the alleles sorted independently?

 

4.      Red eyes (R) is dominant trait in dragons; green eyes (r) is recessive. Large wings (W) is a dominant trait; small wings (w) is recessive. If the alleles for eye color sort independently, what phenotypic ratio of offspring will be produce by this cross?

6.     You have two bean plants from true‐breeding stocks. One plant has red flowers and is short. The other has white flowers and is very tall. Using the letter “R” (both upper and lower case) for flower color, and “T” (upper and lower case) for tallness, write out the genotype of the two parent plants and the genotype and phenotype of the F1 offspring.

 

a) If red is dominant to white, and tall is dominant to short.

Parent 1:

Parent 2:

F1:

 

b) If red is incompletely dominant to white. In this case a plant heterozygous for the R genes will be pink. Tall is still dominant.

Parent 1:

Parent 2:

F1:

 

c) Do a Punnett square showing the genotypes and phenotypes for the F2 generation from b)
