Homework Answers
Hybrid mice is short tail. Which means short tail is dominant. One parent is purebred short tail. Another is hybrid short tail. The chance of the F1 with long tail is nil.
S----Allele for short tail (dominant), s---allele for long tail (recessive)
Because pure bred mouse and hybrid mouse are both short tailed, offspring will not have long tail. So the chances of the offspring with long tail is nil.

In mice, the gene for tail length has 2 alleles: short is dominant to long. However, short tail is lethal in the homozygous condition. A short tail mouse is crossed to a long tail mouse. What are the expected phenotype's and their ratios of the mouse pups in this litter? options: 25% long tails 75% long tails 100% long tails No long tails 50% long tails 33% long tails 67% long tails Following up to the previous question, 2 short...

Suppose you cross two inbred (purebred) strains of mice, black and white, that have different average diastolic arterial blood pressure values, 99 mm Hg (black) and 141 mm Hg (white). You obtain F1’s with an intermediate average value of 120 (ranging between 116 and 124). After interbreeding the F1’s to produce F2’s, you measure the diastolic arterial blood pressure of these F2’s. You find that only 1 out of 1100 mice shows a blood pressure like the original parental black...

Assume that tail length in mice is a quantitative trait involving two genes, each with 2 alleles. One allele at each gene contributes to long tails, the other allele at each gene does not (small tails). The genes are located on different autosomes. Mice with 0 contributing alleles have tails that are 4 cm in length; mice with tails with 4 contributing alleles are 12 cm in length. Determine the phenotypic ratio from an F2 from a true breeding parent...

What is the genotype of the brown-furred parent? ________________________________________________________ c. What is the genotype of the black furred parent? ________________________________________________________ d. What is the genotype of the black-furred offspring?

In mice, short tails (l) are recessive to long tails (L), and tan coat color (b) is recessive to black (B). An LLbb mouse is bred to an llBB mouse. a.What are the expected phenotypic ratios in the F1 generation? b.If two of the F1 progeny are bred, what are the predicted phenotypic ratios in the F2 progeny?
In mice, an allele for apricot (a) eyes is recessive to an allele for brown (A)...
In mice, an allele for apricot (a) eyes is recessive to an allele for brown (A) eyes. At an independently assorting locus, an allele for tan (t) coat color is recessive to an allele for black (T) coat color. A mouse that is homozygous for brown eyes and black coat color is crossed with a mouse having apricot eyes and a tan coat. The resulting F1 are intercrossed to produce the F2. What is the probability of an F2 mouse...

Consider the set of crosses for hypothetical genes that control eye color and tail length in mice. Diane is working with mice with recessive mutations for the genes that control light eye color (b) and short tail length (t). She knows that these genes display genetic linkage and are found on chromosome III. In her work, she crosses a true-breeding male with light eyes and a long tail (bbTT) and a true-breeding female with dark eyes and a short tail...

2. A mutation in mice called short tail (st) causes defects in tail development. For the following 4 possibilities, indicate whether the males of the F1 will be ‘mutant’ or ‘normal’ and whether the females of the F1 will be ‘mutant’ or ‘normal’. You can assume that the male is the heterogametic sex (XY). please show steps TRUE-BREEDING PARENTS -> (P Generation) wild-type female x mutant male mutant female x wild-type male If st is an autosomal recessive...

Assume that tail length in white rats is a quantitative trait. In one pure-breeding line the tail averages 7 inches and in another it averages 4 inches. Progeny arising from the interbreeding of these two lines have tails which average 5.5 inches. When members of the F1 interbreed, the 496 offspring have tails which also average 5.5 inches in length, but vary much more than those of their parents, with the range between 4 and 7 inches. Two members of...

In mice, the allele for black fur (B) is dominant over the allele for cream fur (b), and the allele for short tail (t) is recessive to the allele for long tail (T). What would be the genotype of a mouse that was homozygous for black fur and short tail?
