PLEASE ANSWER #1 - 3.

1. To answer the following question, create your own Punnett Square.
Woolly mammoths can have either long or short hair, and either curly or straight tusks. Dominant alleles for these traits are indicated by uppercase letters and recessive alleles for these traits are indicated by lowercase letters.

H represents long hair.
h represents short hair.
T represents curly tusks.
t represents straight tusks.

Use this information to predict both the genotypic and phenotypic ratios for the hair trait in a monohybrid cross.

2. To answer the following question, create your own Punnett Square.
Woolly mammoths can have either long or short hair, and either curly or straight tusks. Dominant alleles for these traits are indicated by uppercase letters and recessive alleles for these traits are indicated by lowercase letters.

H represents long hair.
h represents short hair.
T represents curly tusks.
t represents straight tusks.

Use this information to predict both the genotypic and phenotypic ratios for the hair and tusk traits in a dihybrid cross.

3. To answer the following question, create your own Punnett Square.
Woolly mammoths can have either long or short hair, and either curly or straight tusks. Dominant alleles for these traits are indicated by uppercase letters and recessive alleles for these traits are indicated by lowercase letters.

H represents long hair.
h represents short hair.
T represents curly tusks.
t represents straight tusks.

Use this information to predict both the genotypic and phenotypic ratios for the hair and tusk traits in a cross between one individual who is HhTt and one individual with short hair and straight tusks.

You are doing a genetics experiment with fruit flies. In your first cross, you cross two true-breeding flies (P generation). The female parent is brown and wingless and the male parent is black with normal wings. All of the flies in the F1 generation are brown and have normal wings. In the following questions, please indicate the alleles associated with dominant phenotypes by uppercase letters and alleles associated with recessive phenotypes by lowercase letters. Assume the genes are not found...

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...

1. Cross a homozygous purple Plant (PP) with a homozygous white plans (PP). This is called the P1 cross, and it will produce offspring called the F1 generation. You are given that purple color is dominant to white in this species. a) What is the genotype of the purple plant? b) What gametes can the purple plant make? c) What is the genotype of the white plant? d) What gametes can the white plant make? e) Create a Punnett Square...

1) One parent has yellow flowers, which is the dominant allele Y. The second parent has white flowers, the recessive allele y. If the offspring are all yellow, what is the genotype of each parent? 2) A plant is homozygous for the recessive gene "a" causing the plant to be short. What is the genotype and the phenotype of this plant? (In your answer, be very clear about which is the genotype and which is the phenotype). 3) The allele...

1. Use the chart below to determine your phenotype (appearance) and possible genotypes (a pair of alleles). Since you cannot do a genetic test right now, if you have the dominant phenotype, you should include both the homozygous and heterozygous genotypes—see the examples on little finger and dimpled cheeks on the first two rows.  Capital letters indicate dominant traits and lower case letters indicate recessive traits.

1) In cattle, there is no dominance between the alleles for red coat (W) and white coat (c). The heterozygote is intermediate or "roan" in color. a) Give the genotypic and phenotypic ratios to be expected following a mating between two roan animals. b) What are the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios from a cross between a roan animal and a white one? 2) In cattle, the hornless condition (H) is dominant to that for the possession of horns (h)....
