If the parent's of a certain group of offspring are Rr & rr, what is the ratio of dominant compared to recessive?
|
1:1
|
|
If the parent's of a certain group of offspring are Rr & Rr, what is the ratio of dominant compared to recessive?
|
3:1
|
|
If an unknown genotype is test crossed with a recessive genotype and the outcome shows that only the dominant gene is present, the unknown must be:
a) homozygous dominant b) heterozygous dominant |
a.
|
|
Red flowers are crossed with white flowers. The offspring shows a new pink color. This kind of incomplete dominance is:
a) codominance b) intermediate inheritance |
b.
intermediate inheritance is when a new phenotype is present. Codominance is when both phenotypes are present at the same time(ex. roan calf) |
|
If an individual crossed a pea that was green and wrinked with another pea that was yellow and round, would the shape genes affect the colour genes?
|
no.
Independent Assortment. The genes that govern pea shape are inherited independently of the ones that contol pea color. |
|
What is epistasis?
|
Epistasis is when gene(s) mask the expression of other genes.
ex. chicken combs |
|
Incomplete dominance ONLY happens when...
|
neither gene exerts a dominant influence.
|
|
What is the difference between monohybrid crosses and dihybrid crosses?
|
Monohybrid crosses only deal with one trait(pea shape - Ss), while dihybrid crosses deal with two traits at the same time(pea shape & pea color(Cc) - SsCc)
|
|
How do u find a cross over percentage?
|
divide the number of recombinations by total number of offspring and then multiply by 100.
- that percent would equal the same amount of distance on a chromosome map(7% = 7 units) |
|
Can males be heterozygous for sex linked trait?
|
no.
males cannot carry a trait on their Y chromosome, therefore they will only have one trait and that will be on the X, which is given by the mother. |
|
A pair of genes seperate during the formation of sex cells. This process is called?
|
Segregation
- happens during meiosis |
|
Which is the genotype:
a) black b) TT |
TT
- a genotype is the DNA code that refers to the genes an organism contains |
|
One gene masks the effect of another. This process is known as the principle of?
|
Dominance.
ex. black(T) is dominant over brown coat color(t), therefore the black will mask the brown. |
|
Parents: MmSs x mmss
What will the gametes be? |
[MS],[Ms],[mS],[ms] x [ms]
|
|
DdFf x DdFf are crossed. What will the ratio of the f2 be?
|
9:3:3:1
9 - dominant for both(D_F_), 3 dominant for D only(D_ff), 3 dominant for F only(ddF_), & 1 both recessive(ddff) |
