Transcript Long hair is dominant for Abyssinian guinea pigs. If you mate a male

Long hair is dominant for Abyssinian
guinea pigs. If you mate a male longhaired Abyssinian guinea pig with a
heterozygous genotype with a femaleshort haired Abyssinian guinea pig,
what is the probability of an
offspring having short hair?
At a murder scene, the victim has been determined to
have Type A blood. Another blood source at the crime
scene has been determined to be Type O blood. There
is a potential person of interest in the crime however,
his whereabouts are unknown. The person of interest’s
father has been recently determined to have Type AB
blood and his mother’s blood type is Type B. Should the
police pursue the person of interest as a potential
suspect? Use a Punnett square analysis to justify your
answer.
Green is the dominant trait for pea seed color in pea
plants. The recessive condition results in yellow pea
seed color in pea plants. You have obtained a package of
green pea seeds and would like to know if the genotype
is homozygous or heterozygous. If you could do one
breeding experiment with your package of pea seeds
what would it be to help determine if the genotype of
the pea seeds in the package is homozygous or
heterozygous? Use a Punnett square analysis to justify
your answer.
Give me an example where any potential
offspring lack the phenotype of either parent.
Use Punnett square(s) to illustrate your
example.
White eyes is a sex-linked trait in Drosophila
(fruit flies). Red eyes is the normal phenotype
for Drosophila. If a female carrier for white
eye is mated with a normal male, what is the
probability of having a male offspring with
white eyes? Use Punnett square analysis to
justify your answer. (Be careful on how you
answer this question.)
Polydactyly ( presence of an extra digit) is a
recessive trait. One type of albinism is a
recessive trait. A man that is heterozygous for
both traits and a woman that is also
heterozygous for both traits plan on having a
child. What is the probability of this couple
having a child that is shows both polydactyly
and albinism. Use a Punnett square to justify
your answer.
Your grandmother has type B blood. Your
grandfather is not sure of his blood type
but, he thinks it may be Type A. You have
Type O blood. Is this a possibility? Use
Punnett squares to justify your answer.
T is the dominant trait for tall pea plants (t is
recessive for short) and S is the dominant trait
for smooth pea seeds (s is recessive for
wrinkled). Describe a pairing between two
plants that would result in 100% of the
offspring having the same phenotype. Use
Punnett square(s) to justify your answer.
J is a dominant allele for jumping in mice. What
is the probability of a non-jumping offspring in
the mating of a heterozygous male mouse with a
non-jumping female mouse? Justify your
answer using a Punnett square.
