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 traits and a red flower (that had one pink parent) produce offspring that have white flowers? (SHOW BOTH PUNNETT SQUARES)

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

In four-o-clock plants, red flower color (FR) is incompletely dominant over white flowers (FW) and the heterozygous individuals have pink flowers. a. If a red-flowered plant is crossed with a white-flowered plant, what would be the genotypic and phenotypic frequencies of the F1? b. If two of the F1 individuals were crossed, what phenotypes and in what frequencies would appear in the F2?
