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.

In mice, short hair is dominant to long hair. If a short-hair individual is mated with a long-hair individual and both long-hair and short-hair offspring result, then from looking at the offspring you learn that: A. the short-hair individual was homozygous B. the short-hair individual was heterozygous C. the long-hair individual was homozygous. D. the long-hair individual was heterozygous. E. more offspring are required in order to decide.

Draw a Punnett square representing the cross between a heterozygous individual and a homozygous recessive individual for gene A. Assume that gene A is inherited in a normal Mendelian fashion and assorts independently. What are the chances that these two individuals would have offspring that are… AA? Aa? aa? What alleles are in each of the gametes (sperm & eggs) for the heterozygous individual? Now let’s practice using the “rule of and.” What are the chance of the offspring from...

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...
