Transcript which male tiger should breed with the female

Punnett Square Practice Problems
#1 monohybrid cross
If you breed two pea plants together, and one has inflated
pods (Ii) and the other has constricted pods (ii), what are
the possible zygotes (seeds) and at what probabilities?
Use a Punnett square to answer the
problem. Show your work and circle your
final answer (percentages).
#2 Codominance
Blood Type is either A, B, or o. A and B are both dominant,
and o means that you don’t have either.
If your dad is Ao, and your mom is AB, what are your possible
blood types and at what percentages? Use a Punnett square
to solve.
#3 Sex linked traits
Baldness is recessive (f) over having full hair (F) and this gene
is sex linked on the X chromosome.
Suzy has a bald father and a normal mother so she is XF/Xf.
Her husband Jim is bald so he is Xf / Y.
How many of their boys will be bald? How many girls will be
bald? How many of each will not be bald but carriers?
#4
Incomplete Dominance
Cow color can be white Cw or black CB. Mixing white and black makes
spotted cows Cw CB. A black cow and a spotted cow mate. What
offspring could they have at what possibilities?
#1
Your uncle is a dwarf and has brown eyes. His dad was a
dwarf and his mom was not, and his dad has blue eyes, but
his mom had brown eyes, so his genotype is (DdBb).
Although not related, your aunt is also a dwarf with brown
eyes with the same genotype (DdBb). They are planning on
having a baby. What possible types of kids could they have,
and at what probability?
D= Dwarfism
d= normal height
B= brown eyes
b= blue eyes
#2
A couple wants to have kids but they want to know how there kids
will turn out. The dad has brown hair (Bb) and good vision (Vv). The
mom also has brown hair (Bb) but has bad vision (vv).
What are the possible traits of the children, and what are the
probabilities (in percents) of each occurring?
3. In rabbits, the coat color black dominant (B) over brown
(b). Short hair is dominant (S) over long (s). In a cross
between a black short-haired male (BbSS) and a brown
short-haired female (bbSs), what possible children could
be born, and at what probabilities?
4. In the species of Rabbit above, a yellow rabbit and a
red rabbit mate. 25% of their offspring are white. What
are the genotypes of the parents?
5. A tall, yellow-seeded pea plant heterozygous for height
and seed color (TtYy) is crossed with a tall, green-seeded
pea plant that is heterozygous for height but homozygous
recessive for seed color (Ttyy). If 80 offspring are produced,
how many are expected to be tall and have yellow seeds?
Extra Credit Punnet Square Detailed Problem
You are a zookeeper and you have three rare tigers, a
white female tiger that is normal size (ooNn), an orange
male striped tiger that is much larger than a normal tiger
(Oonn), and another male tiger that is white striped and
normal size (ooNN).
If you can sell a normal (orange, normal size) tiger for
$50,000, white tigers for one million dollars each, giant
tigers for two million dollars each, and white giant tigers
for 5 million each, which male tiger should breed with
the female? Why?
Show your work: Make
two Punnett squares to
prove your idea.
You should also calculate and show
and consider the dollar amounts
given.
O= orange
o= white
N= normal size
n= giant size
