Practice Problems for Bio 1:

1) Short hair is dominant over long hair in dogs. If a short-haired dog whose mother was long-haired is crossed with a long-haired dog, what proportion of the offspring will be short-haired?

2) The common grackle is a species of robin-sized blackbirds that are fairly common over most of the United States. Suppose that long tails (L) were dominant to short tails in these birds. A female short-tailed grackle mates with a male long-tailed grackle who had one parent with a long tail and one parent with a short tail. What is the male's genotype? What is the genotypic ratio?

2) A man with type O blood has a sister with type AB blood. What are the genotypes and phenotypes of their parents?

3) The inheritance of curly hair illustrates incomplete dominance. When a curly haired individual reproduces with a straight-haired one, the children all have wavy hair. What offspring would be produced, in what proportions, when two people with wavy hair reproduce?

4) Colorblindness is an X-linked trait recessive disorder. A woman who does not carry the color-blindness allele has children with a man who is color blind. What proportion of their children will be color blind?

5) Huntington disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant disorder. A person who is heterozygous for the Huntington disease allele has offspring with someone who does not have HD. What proportion of their children will have HD?

Job Withdrawal

People often go through as dissatisfaction sours their commitment to the organization or their job.

Draw from your own work experience. Think about a job dissatisfaction experience you went through. It can be in your current job or a job you recently held.

1. Overall, were you or the individual satisfied or dissatisfied with the job or volunteer work?
2. Which category was, or is most likely to, foster the dissatisfaction? Categories could include personal dispositions, tasks and roles, supervisors and co-workers, or pay and benefits.
3. Describe how your level or the individual's level of satisfaction or dissatisfaction was manifest. For example, did your behavior or the individual's behavior change? Did your or the individual's dissatisfaction cause you or the individual to avoid work by being late or absent, or quit? Perhaps you or the individual withdrew psychologically but remained at work physically.
4. How could the organization have prevented job withdrawal?
