Indicate the possible genotypes of the following crosses. (Do your own representation, all characteristics first mentioned are dominant) Tall x dwarf Hairy x glabrous Red x white Smooth x wrinkled Yellow x green
ABO blood type is determined by three alleles: *, 18, and i. On a separate chromosome, anotherset of alleles determines the Rhesus factor: D and d.A woman with blood type A, who is heterozygous for both blood type and Rhesus factor, had achild with a man with blood type B, who is heterozygous for both blood type and Rhesus factor. What is the percentage chance that this child is blood type B and heterozygous for both traits? Record your answer as a percentage rounded to one decimal place.
Consider a cross between a true breeding purple flowered pea plant (genotype PP) and a true breeding white flowered pea plant (genotype pp) that produces all heterozygous F1 offspring. An F1 intercross is conducted between two of the F1 offspring, resulting in the F2 generation. What is the expected genotpye outcome of the F2 individuals resulting from the F1 intercross? 1PP: 2Pp: 1pp 1PP: 1Рp: 1pp 100% Pp 1PP: 1pp 100% pp
