There are 3 alleles for plumage in mallard ducks. Restricted (MR) is dominant over the wild type mallard (M), which is dominant over dusky (md). If two ducks with genotypes mdmd and MRM are crossed, what proportion of the F1 generation will have the genotype MRmd?
Group of answer choices
a 1/2
b 2/3
c 0
d 1
Homework Answers
The dominance pattern is clearly mentioned in the question.
Restricted(MR) > Wild type mallard(M) > Dusky(md)
Consider the cross between MRM and mdmd
We can see that out of two offsprings, only one has the genotype MRmd.
So the probability is 1/2

In the Australian sheep blowfly an autosomal gene yellow (alleles y, y + ) determines the recessive phenotype yellow eyes. A pure breeding strain with yellow eyes is crossed to a pure breeding wild-type strain. The F1 flies from this cross are allowed to interbreed to produce the F2 generation. 41 The phenotype of the F1 flies will be A. wild type B. yellow eyes C. recessive D. y + y 42 The F1 flies are testcrossed, the phenotypic ratio...

1. Fixation of Dominant Alleles Start with a population that has a gene with two alleles (A and a) with classical Mendelian dominance that are at equal frequency (p0.5. q 0.5). Assume this first generation is at hardy Weinberg equilibrium. Calculate the genotype frequencies AA- a. Aa b. Now assume some environmental change that makes the recessive phenotype completely unfit (fitness- 0). Calculate the allele frequencies and genotype frequencies in the second generation.

Answer the following questions based on the following scenario Consider a gene with 2 alleles, W1, and W2. Each line is homozygous for its respective allele. When the 2 lines are crossed, all the F1 progeny has a phenotype associated with W2. 1. What is the genotype of the F1? What gametes can if produce? 2. Which allele is dominant? Why? 3. Draw the punnet square associate with a self-fertilization of the F1. 4. What proportion of the offspring will...

In cucumbers, green color (W) is dominant over yellow color (w) and spiked cucumbers (D) are dominant over smooth cucumbers (d). A cucumber plant true-breeding for green, spiked cucumbers is crossed with a plant true-breeding for yellow, smooth cucumbers. 1. What will the phenotypes and genotypes of the F1 generation be? 2. If the above F1 progeny are self-crossed, what ratio of the F2 offspring will be: WwDd wwDd WWDD wwDD 3. What ratio will have green spiked cucumbers? 4....

On the island of Notion, in the Factotum Archipelago, there lives a population of pencil bears. A portion of these bears have silky fur, and as a result, are much better surfers. The texture of the fur is determined by a single autosomal locus with two alleles: S (trait allele) and s (wild type allele). In a recent study, researched collected the values in the following table: Table 1. Counts of Pencil Bear fur style by genotype Phenotype Genotype Silky...
