You are a cat breeder and was asked to choose two parents (male and female) among a group of cats with different coat colors: black, orange and calico. What coat color parents (male and female) would you choose to maximize the chance of getting calico kittens in a litter? (llustrate and explain your choice with the selected cross and outcomes.

In cats, the allele (B) produces black color but (b) producesyellow color. These alleles are co‐dominant to each other. Aheterozygote produces a tortoise‐shell color. The alleles (B)and (b) are sex‐linked as well. Cross a tortoise‐shell femalewith a yellow male. What percent of their offspring will be yellow? What percent of their offspring will be black? What percent of their offspring will be tortoise shell?
Get the genotypic and phenotypic ratio of the following: Dihybrid cross: Harry has 1 pair of dog, he's going to breed his pure black, furry male to his white furless female (P generation). Also, he wants to find out what will be the result if he breed 2 offspring from F1 generation. Help him to predict the P and G ratio of F1 and F2 generation using the Punnett Square.

Dominant Recessive Black White Furry Furless Trihybrid cross: Breed AaBbCc to another AaBbCc.
In certain breeds of dogs two different sets of alleles determine the color pattern. Black color is dominant and red color is recessive. Solid color is dominant and white spotting is recessive. A homozygous black and white spotted male is crossed with a red female with white spots. What is the probability o them producing a solid black colored puppy?
In cat, a black cat when crossed with a white cat produces a tabby which appears to be a gray cat striped with black and white fur. What is the F1 phenotyphic ratio of a cross between a black and white cats? Numerical anwers only. When tabby cats are crossed with black cat. what is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring? Numerical anwers only. When tabby cats are crossed black cat. What is the phenotypes of the offspring? write in CAPITAL LETTERS WITH SEPARATE COMMAS When tabby cats are crossed with white cat. what is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring? Numerical anwers only. What is the specific mode of inheritance behind this phenomenon?
One of the coat color patterns in cats is determined by a pair of codominant alleles located onthe X The allele (B) produces black color, and its allele (B') produces yellow color.The heterozygote (BB') has a tortoise-shell pattern. Determine the genotypic and phenotypic frequencies expected from a cross between a black male and yellow female. Determine the genotypic and phenotypic frequencies expected from a cross between a black male and tortoise-shell female.
Finish these crosses below:(assume all parents are homozygous for alleles) Cross 3:These are the parents: Wild Type Male; White Eye FemaleWhat are the alleles of the parents? (like Aa and AA / or like XY and XWXW+) Use a Punnett square below to determine the F1 generation phenotypic ratios. What is the phenotypic ratio of the F1? If two F1 individuals mated, what would the F2 phenotypic ratios be?
In Ayrshire cattle, the spotting of the coat can be either red andwhite or mahogany and white. The mahogany-and-white phenotypeis caused by the allele SM (where the letter S indicates spotting, andthe superscript M stands for mahogany). The red-and-white phenotypeis controlled by the allele SR (where the superscript R standsfor red). The table below shows the relationships between genotypeand phenotype for males and females: Explain the pattern of inheritance.
Starting with the parental cross AA bb × aa BB, what proportion of the F2 offspring is expected to be homozygous at least one of the two genes? Show your work with Punnnett square and without punnet square.
Imagine that you are performing a cross involving seed color in garden pea plants. What traits would you expect to observe in the F1 offspring if you cross true-breeding parents with green seeds and yellow seeds? Yellow seed color is dominant over green. a. only yellow-green seeds b. only yellow seeds c. 1:1 yellow seeds:green seeds d. 1:3 green seeds:yellow seeds
Imagine that you are performing a cross involving seed texture in garden pea plants. You cross true-breeding round and wrinkled parents to obtain F1 offspring. Which of the following experimental results in terms of numbers of plants are closest to what you expect in the F2 progeny? a. 8lOroundseeds b. 8lOwrinkledseeds c. 405:395 round seeds:wrinkled seeds d. 610:190 round seeds:wrinkled seeds
When you decide to breed your Labrador retriever Molly and sell the puppies, you discover that two of Mollys four siblings have developed a hip disorder that is traceable to the action of a single recessive allele. Molly herself shows no sign of the disorder. If you breed Molly to a male Labrador that does not carry the recessive allele, can you assure a purchaser that the puppies will also be free of the condition? Explain your answer.
