‘A’ at gene 1 is completely dominant to ‘a’, and ‘A’ encodes stiff ears, while ‘a’ encodes floppy ears
‘B’ at gene 2 is completely dominant to ‘b’ and ‘B’ encodes tall individuals while ‘b’ encodes short individuals.
The genes do not interact and do assort independently.
Given this, what genotypic and phenotypic ratios do you expect from an AaBb vs. AaBb cross?
AaBb* AaBb
| AB | Ab | aB | ab | |
| AB | AABB (stiff ears, tall) | AABb (stiff ears, tall) | AaBB (stiff ears, tall) | AaBb (stiff ears, tall) |
| Ab | AABb (stiff ears, tall) | AAbb (stiff ears, short) | AaBb (stiff ears, tall) | Aabb (stiff ears, short) |
| aB | AaBB (stiff ears, tall) | AaBb (stiff ears, tall) | aaBB (floppy ears, tall) | aaBb (floppy ears, tall) |
| ab | AaBb (stiff ears, tall) | Aabb(stiff ears, short) | aaBb (floppy ears, tall) | aabb (floppy ears, short) |
the genotypic ratio is
AABB:AABb:AaBB:AaBb:AAbb:Aabb:aaBB:aaBb:aabb=1:2:2:4:1:2:1:2:1
the phenotypic ratio is
Stiff ears, tall : stiff ears, short: floppy ears, tall: floppy ears, short=9:3:3:1

The dominant allele of gene A encodes for long ears in rabbits whereas the recessive allele encodes for short ears. The dominant allele for gene B encodes for pointy ear tips while the recessive encodes for round tips. Genes A and B are 70 map units apart. A rabbit with AB/ab genotype is test crossed. What phenotypic ratios do you expect to see in the F1? Select one: a. 3 long and pointy : 1 short and round b. 20...

1. In corn, purple kernels are dominant to yellow kernels, and starchy kernels are dominant to sweet kernels. If the genotypic verent crosed with a yellow, sweet parent? What would be the phenotypic ratio of the Fa complete dominance is the pattern of inheritance, what would be and phenotypic ratios for the offspring of a true breeding purple, starchy generation? 2. In guinea pigs, a cross between black furred and brown furred parents gives offspring with 100% black...
5. In the North Pole species of elves, the trait for pointed ears (P) is dominant over rounded ears (p), and the trait for large feet is (F) is dominant over small feet (f). A female elf with pointed ears and large feet (heterozygous for both traits) has married a handsome elf with pointed ears (heterozygous) and small feet. They are planning to start a family. a. List the genotype of the parents: b. What will be the distribution of...
In cats, curled ears (E) is dominant over normal ears (e). On a different chromosome, Black color (B) is dominant over gray (b). A cross is made between cats EeBb x eeBb. a) Give the gametes each can make. b) Do the Punnett Square for this cross on the back. c) Give the phenotypic ratios for Curled Ears & Black Color ___/16 Curled Ears & gray color ____/16 normal ears & Black Color ___/16 normal ears & gray color...
The gene for manx tail in cats is an embryonic lethal in homozygous state, such that: MM = lethal (progeny not observed at birth) Mm = manx tail mm = normal tail Another trait in cats, the short hair (S) is dominant over long hair (s) so that: S_ = short hair ss = long hair The two traits are controlled by genes that assort independently. A) What is the genotypic and phenotypic distribution from an inter se mating? B)...
In dogs, short hair is dominant over long hair, and dark coat
color is dominant over albino fur. Assuming that these effects are
caused by two independently sorting genes, what will be the result
of the following cross? Create a Punnet square and show your
work.
2. In tomatoes, the gene for round fruit is dominant to the gene for long fruit. A homozygous round fruit plant was crossed with a long fruit plant. Show the genotype of the two...

Name: PRELAB QUESTIONS 1. Define the following terms: Gene- Allele - Phenotype- Genotype- Homozygous dominant - Homozygous recessive- Heterozygous- 2. Put into your own words Mendel's law of segregation. LI Does the law of segregation always apply when dealing with genes located on chromosomes within a diploid nucleus? If not, explain why. 3. Mendel worked with several pea plant characters, each of which was determined by a single gene with two alleles, one dominant and the other recessive. For each...
1. In loppins (fictitious diploid invertebrates), ear shape is controlled by two genes with two alleles each; upright ears (F) is dominant to floppy ears (f), and double-pointed ears (P) is dominant to single-pointed ears (p). Moreover, due to genetic interactions, floppy ears are always single-pointed. A loppin with floppy ears is crossed to a loppin with upright single-pointed ears, and the phenotypic ratios in the offspring are 2 floppy : 1 double-pointed upright : 1 single-pointed upright. What are...
