salamanders with long tails are dominant to the short-tailed ones, and yellow throated salamanders are dominant to blue throated. Salamander 1, a long tail yellow throat Salamander mates with Salamander 2, a short tail yellow throat Salamander.

Using these genotypes for the parents what are the odds of observing a lizard that is short tailed with a yellow throat?

Tail length in salamanders is controlled by a sex-linked gene. The heterozygous condition gives tails intermediate in length, whereas long and short tailed individuals are homozygous. a. What phenotypic ratio is expected from a cross of a long-tailed male and an intermediate-tailed female? b. In addition to sex-linked inheritance, what kind of inheritance is illustrated here? Is it incomplete dominance or codominance? Explain.

12. In a species of bird, pink eyes (P) are dominant to blue eyes (p) and long tails (L) are dominant to short tails (l). Two purebred (homozygous) birds mate, one with pink eyes and a short tail and the other with blue eyes and a long tail. Set up a Punnett Square to determine the genotypes and phenotypes that can result from this cross. a. What would be the genotypic ratio of the offspring? The pink-eyed offspring from above...

Imagine that mermaids are real (yay!) and can either have large scaled tails (L, dominant) or small scaled tails (l, recessive). They have sex chromosomes like humans. An XX mermaid is a carrier for small scaled tails. An XY mermaid has a small scaled tail. -------------------------------------------------------------------- 1) If scale size was an autosomal mendelian trait a) What are the two mermaid's genotypes? (1pt) b) what percentage of their offspring would have large scaled tails? (1.5pts) 2) If scale size was...

3a. In a certain breed of dog long hair is dominant over short hair; the gene involved is autosomal. Another gene, B controls hair colour, which is X-linked, one allele B1 produces gray coloured hair; the other allele B2 produces red coloured hair; and the heterozygous combination B1B2 produces brindle coloured hair (a mix with patches of both gray and red coloured hairs). If a red male homozygous for long hair is mated with a brindle short-haired female, what kind...

3. In crosses between guinea pigs of a certain variety, offspring have either brown or yellow hair, which is either long or short. Assume that the traits are each single gene traits. Consider the following crosses and the resultant F1 progeny: Cross 1 P: female with long, brown hair X male with long, brown hair F1: long, brown short, yellow long, yellow short, brown Cross 2 P: female with long, brown hair X male with short, yellow hair F1: long,...

In rabbits, short hair is determined by a dominant allele S, whereas long hair is determined by a recessive allele s. Suppose that a pure short-haired rabbit is bred with a long-haired rabbit, and an offspring is picket at random, and mated with a long-haired rabbit. 1. What is the probability that a randomly chosen second generation rabbit will be short-haired? 2. What is the probability that a randomly chosen second generation rabbit will be long-haired? 3. What is the...

Simple Dominance with 2 genes A gene in cats causes them to be black (dominant) or brown (recessive). A second gene causes cats to be agouti (have stripes on their hairs) or non-agouti (solid colored hairs). If you did a dihybrid cross between two black haired agouti cats, what fraction of the offspring would be expected to have each phenotype? If a dihybrid black agouti cat mated with a brown cat that was heterozygous for the agouti gene, what fraction...
