Having a rolled tongue or a not rolled tongue are different versions of...
ALLELES
What is the chance that 2 brown-eyed parents (one is homozygous dominant and the other is heterozygous) produce brown-eyed children?
100%
It is a recessive trait
This is an example of...
Codominance
Having a GG genotype means you are...
Homozygous dominant
What is the chance that 2 brown-eyed parents (both heterozygous) produce brown-eyed children?
75%
How do you know the trait is recessive?
The grandson in the 3rd generation received an allele from both parents who don't have the trait, so the parents passed on the recessive allele.
The red and white alleles are...
Incomplete Dominance
If you have a recessive trait for eye colour, you _____ is blue.
Phenotype
A homozygous dominant flower and homozygous recessive flower are crossed, and their offspring are crossed again. What percentage of dominant, recessive and hybrid offspring will be produced?
25% Dominant trait
25% recessive trait
50% hybrid or heterozygous
What is the genotype of the children of the 1st set of parents in generation I?
heterozygous
The affected trait can not be dominant because...
The parents do not have the trait, but the child does. One parent must have the trait if it is dominant in order to pass down the allele.
A heterozygous genotype will always be this... on a genetic pedigree
Carrier
If a homozygous dominant parent and a heterozygous parent have children, their offspring have this % chance of being homozygous recessive.
0%
Is the trait more likely dominant or recessive and how do you know?
Dominant because:
- all generations have the trait
- 100% of the children of parents II3 and II4 have the trait
What is the genotype of the father in Generation I?
XAY
If you cross white and black rats and get grey offspring, the alleles are...
Incomplete dominant
A red flower with the genotype RR is crossed with a white flower with the genotype WR. The chance that the offspring will be pink or red/white is...
0%
(White the dominant allele in this example.)
What is the genotype of person 14?
XAXA
If a base pair is accidentally eliminated, this is an example of ...
