Heredity and Genetics Assignment Assuming that a long tail is dominant and a short tail is recessive, complete a Punnett square between the following two deer: Deer A: homozygous recessive (short tail) Deer B: heterozygous Remember, you should only be using ONE letter in your Punnett square. The capital version (for example, T) would be the dominant allele, and the lowercase version (t) would be the recessive allele. Each parent will have two alleles, where homozygous dominant would have two capital letters (TT), homozygous recessive would have two lowercase letters (tt), and heterozygous would have one of each (Tt). Submit your Punnett square (below) along with your description of the offspring to your teacher. What will the offspring look like? How many of the offspring will have a long tail and how many will have a short tail? Put the alleles for Deer A in the yellow boxes. Put the alleles for Deer B in the purple boxes.

Genetics 181 Rule of Incomplete Dominance When two different pure-breeding strains are crossed, and their offspring show a blending of phenotypes, then neither allele is dominant. This is easily recognized when the phenotype is somewhere between two extremes. Counting the parents, there are three phenotypes (black, white, grey) being expressed in these flowers instead of only two, and that third phenotype is intermediate between the other two. This heterozygous condition is called incomplete dominance. 1. On the chart you did earlier, which of the three hair types (wavy, curly, or straight) represents incomplete dominance-the blended heterozygous condition? 2. You cross a herd of red cattle with white cattle and all of the calves appear to be roan (reddish white). Is this an example of incomplete dominance? How do you know? 3. You cross a blue flowering pea plant with a white flowering pea plant and all of the offspring are blue flowered. Is this an example of incomplete dominance? How…
Mendelian Genetics [6F.R]:Question 1 In rabbits, grey fur (G) is dominant to white fur (g) and black eyes (B) are dominant to red eyes (b). A male rabbit with the genotype GgBb is crossed with a female rabbit with the genotype ggbb. What percent of the offspring will have white fur and red eyes? Select one: 25% 50% 100% 0% 1000
In cattle, the gene for hornless (H) is dominant to the gene for horned (h), the gene for black (B) is dominant to that of red (b), and the gene for white face, or Hereford spotting, (S) is dominant to that for solid color (s). A cow (female) that is heterozygous for all traits is inseminated by a bull (male) of the genotype bbhhSs. What is the probability of obtaining a calf that is a black, hornless bull with Hereford spotting?
Dominant negative Incomplete dominance Epistasis Recessive lethal allele III ||| E A condition where one gene has the ability to override the expression of another gene no matter what the relationship is between the other gene's alleles. A condition when a new mutation is able to suppress or revert an earlier mutation allowing wildtype function to reappear. A condition where a recessive allele influences the shape of a protein dimer product in the heterozygous condition so that it neither resembles the homozygous dominant nor the homozygous recessive conditions leading to a LOF in the heterozygous state and the recessive state. A condition where two recessive alleles will be fatal to an offspring although it will not affect a

MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE. In the following items, read each statement carefully. I. The law of segregation states that the two alleles for a heritable character separate during gamete formation and end up in a same gamete.II. The law of dominance states that one of the pairs of inherited traits will be dominant and the others recessive unless both the factors are recessive a. The first statement (I) is correct and the second statement (II) is wrong b. The first statement (I) is wrong and the second statement (II) is correct c. Both statements are correct d.

Linked Genes While working with a type of beetle that is normally smooth and large, you discover two mutations that lead to the recessive phenotypes, bumpy and small, respectively. For the body type (i.e., smooth or bumpy) use S or s to designate the alleles. For the size (i.e., large or small) use L or l to designate the alleles. You cross two true-breeding parents to get all F1 beetles that are large and smooth. You cross the F1 to true-breeding small, bumpy beetles and get: 228 large and smooth, 19 small and smooth, 16 large and bumpy, 237 small and bumpy. What were the genotypes and phenotypes of the two parental beetles (P generation)? Calculate the distance in cM between the S and L genes, using the information from the cross above. Now draw a linear genetic map of these two genes. Another gene for beetle body color, gene W, is found to be 5 cM from the S gene. Indicate the TWO places where this gene may fall in relation to the other two genes on the linear genetic map…
