Question

You cross two crows, one with yellow legs, and the other with green legs. All of the F1 offspring have purple legs. Leg pigment is produced by the pathway in Fig.3, where the dominant alleles (Y and G) produce functional versions of enzymes Y and G, and the recessive alleles (y and g) produce nonfunctional enzymes. What genotype frequencies do you expect to see in the F2 generation? O all purple 9 green: 3 purple: 3 yellow 9 purple: 3 green: 3 yellow 1 black 9 purple: 4 yellow: 3 green QUESTION 12 I obtained two different true-breeding white rabbit breeds. White is recessive, but when I cross the two breeds, I obtain brown rabits What is the minium number of loci influencing fur color in this cross? (make sure you understand why) 0 4

ANSWER 11
Cross YyGg x YyGg YG Yg yG yg There are 4 distinct phenotypes Yg 18.8% 18.8 % 6.3 YyGG YygG

9 YG dominant: 3 Y dominant: 3 G dominant: 1 yg recessive
9 Purple: 3 Green: 3 Yellow: 1 Black

ANSWER 12
A minimum of 2 loci are required to procude this kind of a result. That is because the other loci might be able to influence the production of another trait that could lead to the brown phenotype.

    In sweet peas, two genes (genes A and B) control flower color. The dominant alleles of both genes produce enzymes that function in the biochemical pathway shown to convert colorless precursors to a purple pigment. The recessive alleles do not produce enzyme. Therefore, at least one dominant allele of both gene A and gene B are required for purple flowers. Answer the questions about this biochemical pathway.

    The F1 generation is all yellow chromosomes, with just two homologous pairs, making n-2 (haploid) and 2n -4 (diploid). Two unlinked gene loci affect flower color in this species. At the P locus found on the larger of the two chromosome pairs, the dominant P allele causes pigment to be deposited in the petals. The recessive p allele. when homozygous, results in no pigment being placed in the petals, leading to flowers with white petals. The Y locus, found on...

    1. In loppins (fictitious diploid invertebrates), ear shape is controlled by two genes with two alleles each; upright ears (F) is dominant to floppy ears (f), and double-pointed ears (P) is dominant to single-pointed ears (p). Moreover, due to genetic interactions, floppy ears are always single-pointed. A loppin with floppy ears is crossed to a loppin with upright single-pointed ears, and the phenotypic ratios in the offspring are 2 floppy : 1 double-pointed upright : 1 single-pointed upright. What are...
