TtRr x TtRr = 9/16
The parent that determines whether a male offspring has an x-linked trait, such as color blindness.
The difference between codominance and incomplete dominance?
Incomplete dominance is the mixing of the two alleles (for example, red+white=pink) and codominance is the two alleles are each shown.
Given the parents AABBCc x AabbCc, assume simple dominance and independent assortment. What proportion of the progeny will be expected to phenotypically resemble the first parent?
What is 3/4
The genotype of a female who has hemophilia. Given that "N" is the dominant allele for normal blood, and "n" is the recessive allele for hemophilia.
What is XnXn
There are three (3) alleles for human blood type. Which are codominant and which is recessive?
Type A and B are codominant, and type O is recessive.
In rabbits, grey fur (G) is dominant to white fur (g) and black eyes (B) are dominant to red eyes (b). One parent is GgBb and the other parent is ggBb. What is the probability in fractions that they will produce offspring that have grey fur and black eyes?
The genes for hemophilia are located on the X chromosome. It is a recessive disorder. List the possible genotypes and phenotypes of the children from a man normal for blood clotting and a woman who is a carrier.
XNXN:normal XNY:normal XNXn:carrier XnY: Hemophilia
Fur color in some rabbits is a codominant trait. If 2 rabbits mate that are heterozygous, what will the ratio of phenotypes be in their offspring?
What is 1:2:1
In corn, yellow kernel color is governed by a dominant allele; white, by its recessive allele. A random sample of 1,000 kernels from a population that is in equilibrium reveals that 910 are yellow and 90 are white. What are the frequencies of the yellow and white alleles in this population? What is the percentage of heterozygous in this population?
What is p=0.7, q=0.3? 42%?
In tomatoes red fruit (R) is dominant to yellow fruit (r) and tall vines (T) are dominant to short vines (t). Both parents are heterozygous for red fruit and tall vines. What is the probability in fractions that the offspring will be RrTT?
In a family, the probability that a boy born into the family will have color blindness if the mother is a carrier of color blindness.
What is 50%?
the percentage of pink offspring from RW and RW parents
Within a population of butterflies, the color brown (B) is dominant over the color white (b). And, 40% of all butterflies are white. Calculate the frequency of homozygous dominant individuals.
What is 0.135?
Pea plants come in two colors purple (P) and white (p). Their height is also inherited where Tall (T) is dominant over short (t). Cross a pea plant that is homozygous dominant for purple and is short and a pea plant that is heterozygous for both traits. Give the phenotypic ratio
What is 50% purple and tall and 50% purple and short or 1:1
Probability of white-eyed male if the female fruit fly has a genotype of XNXN and the male is XnY
Over the summer, 20 friends (lets say 10 males and 10 females) charter a plane to go on a round-the-world tour. Unfortunately, they all crash land (safely) on a deserted island. No one finds them and they start a new population totally isolated from the rest of the world. Two of the friends carry (i.e. are heterozygous for) the recessive cystic fibrosis allele (c). Assuming that the frequency of this allele does not change as the population grows, what will be the incidence of cystic fibrosis on this island?
What is 0.25%?
