​ANSWER = 8

EXPLAINATION

SUPPOSE

colour gene is A and allele are A and a  

Phenotype = Dark genotype= Aa or AA

Phenotype = light genotype = aa

Tail gene is L and alleles are L and l

Phenotype = long genotype = LL or Ll

Phenotype = tail genotype = ll

Female. x Male

Genotype. AaLL. AaLl

Phenotype. Dark fur long tail. Dark fur long tail

Gamete. AL , aL AL, Al , aL,al

MALE
GAMETES AL Al aL al
FEMALE AL AALL( DARK FURLONG) AALl (DARK FUR LONG TAIL) AaLL (DARK FUR LONG TAIL) AaLl (DARK FUR LONG TAIL)
aL AaLL (DARK FUR LONG TAIL) AaLl (DARK FUR LONG TAIL) aaLL (LIGHT FUR LONG TAIL) aaLl (LIGHT FUR LONG TAIL)

TOTAL 8 GENOTYPE ( HIGHLETED IN TABLE)

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...

The HAIR gene (abbreviated as H) controls hair color with the dominant phenotype being dark brown hair and the recessive phenotype being blonde hair. The WIDOW gene (abbreviated as W) controls the presence of a ‘widows peak’ in the hairline (having a point at the center of the hairline). Having a widows peak is dominant and not having a widows peak is recessive. Gene H and Gene W are linked genes. Two individuals with the genotypes indicated below mate (note:...

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...

For problem 1, to compute probabilities, the probability of event 1 AND event 2 is obtained by multiplying the two probabilities together, whereas the probability of event 1 OR event 2 is obtained by adding the two probabilities. 1. Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a condition that causes muscle degeneration and then death. Most people with the condition are wheelchair-bound by age 12 and dead before age 30. The condition is due to a mutation in the gene for a...
