A trihybrid flower, AaHhEe, is crossed with aaHhEe. The ‘A’ allele represents flower color, where ‘A’ represents red flowers and ‘a’ represents white flowers. The ‘H’ allele represents stem height, where ‘H’ represents long stems and ‘h’ represents short stems. The ‘E’ allele represents seed shape, where ‘E’ represents round seeds and ‘e’ represents wrinkled seeds.

a. List all of the possible gametes formed by the aaHhEe flower.

b. Use the multiplication and addition rules from the lecture to calculate the probability that their offspring will have red flowers, long stems, and round seeds.

In a certain species of flower, the red allele for flower color (R) is completely dominant to the pink allele (r). A completely recessive allele (d) at a second gene on a different chromosome allows pigment (color) to be actually deposited within flowers; the lack of pigment results in white flowers. READ CAREFULLY! (a) What is a possible genotype for a pink flower? ___ ___ ___ ___ (b) What is the probability that a flower that is heterozygous for both...

Flower color in pea plants exhibits complete dominance as the purple allele is completely dominant over the white alleles. A) Out of 276 pea plants, 273 have purple flowers. Assuming the population is in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium, calculate the Expected allele frequencies. B) A group of students counts 552 pea plants. Based on the expected allele frequencies, how many should have purple flowers and how many should have white flowers?

1.      In snapdragons, red flower color (CR) is incompletely dominant to white flower color (CW). The heterozygote has pink flowers. Normal broad leaves (LB) are incompletely dominant to narrow, grass-like leaves, (LN). The heterozygote has an intermediate leaf width. If a red-flowered, narrow-leaved snapdragon is crossed with a white-flowered broad-leaved one, what will be the phenotypes in the F1and F2generations, and what will be the proportions of the different classes?        (Draw a branching diagram to provide the answer)

In dogs, the allele for black coat color (B) is dominant to the allele for brown coat color (b). But if a dog has two copies of the recessive allele for a pigment-depositing gene (e), it can only have yellow coat color. In a cross of two doubly heterozygous black dogs (BbEe x BbEe), what fraction of the next generation would we expect to be yellow? WHY? a.1/8 b.1/4 c.2/3 d.3/16

If a cat gets alleles for black and yellow coat, it will have a mottled coat that contains both yellow and black coloring known as Tortoise shell. A tortoise shell female mates with a yellow male. a) What is the genotype of each parent? b) Draw a Punnett square that shows this cross. c) What is...
