An individual homozygous dominant for the thumb shape mates with an individual homozygous recessive for thumb shape. What are the predicted genotypic and phenotypic ratios for the cross?
Dominant Allele: Straight thumb (H)
Recessive Allele: Hitchhiker's (h)
the genotype of the homozygous dominant for the thumb shape is HH and the genotype of the homozygous recessive is hh.
HH * hh
H | H | |
h | Hh ( straight thumb) | Hh ( straight thumb) |
h | Hh ( straight thumb) | Hh ( straight thumb) |
genotypic ratio is
HH:Hh:hh=0:1:0
phenotypic ratio is
straight thumb : hitchhiker's thumb= 1:0

If a carrier female for cystic fibrosis mates with a normal male (homozygous dominant) what are the possible genetic outcomes of their offspring. (Use a punnett square as part of your answer and represent the dominant allele with an “F” and the recessive allele with “f”. Make sure the difference between the alleles is clearly written.) What is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring? What is the genotypic ratio of the offspring? What percentage of offspring will have cystic fibrosis?...
4. What are the genotypic and phenotypic expectancies for a cross between a and homozygous recessive individual? heterozygous
During complete dominance, no matter what the trait is, when one crosses a homozygous dominant individual with a homozygoous recessive individual, the genotypic ratio will always be: 100% Heterozygous individuals 50% homozygous dominant and 50% heterozygous 25% homozygous dominant, 50% heterozygous, and 25% homozygous recessive 50% heterozygous and 50% homozygous recessive
In chickens, the creeper phenotype is characterized by shortened legs and wings. Affected chickens cannot walk normally and have to creep along. Creeper chickens are heterozygous for he creeper allele, C. In the homozygous state, C disrupts embryological development and lead to death of the chicken before hatching a. What are the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios from the cross of two creeper chickens? b. Is the creeper allele dominant or recessive for leg shape? Explain. C. Is the creeper...

Color-blindness is an X-linked recessive disorder. Mike is color-blind. His wife, Meg, is homozygous for normal color vision allele. Using Punnett squares, derive and compare the genotypic and phenotypic ratios for the offspring of this marriage. What is Mikes's genotype?
3. The shape of the seed capsule in a plant called the shepherd's purse is co ntrolled bv two genes, X and Y. If a dominant allele of either or both genes is present, the seed capsule is triangular. If the plant is recessive for both genes (xyy), the capsules are ovoid. What genotypic and phenotypic ratios are obtained from the cross XrYy xxYy? (20 points) x nx
In horses, the color black is due to a dominant allele (B) and chestnut color is due to a recessive allele (b) of the same gene. The trotting gate is due to a dominant allele (T) and the pacing gate is due to the recessive allele (t) of the same gene. These two genes are located on different chromosomes. A homozygous black pacer horse mates with a homozygous, chestnut trotting horse and they have a daughter. a. What are the...
