aabbccdd = 4 inches
AABBCCDD = 7 inches
It is given that two individuals out of 496 have a 7 inch
tail
This is approximately, one in 256
4^4 = 256
= The trait must be regulated by 4 genes (Each gene with 2
alleles)
Contribution from each allele = 0.375 inches
Parental cross: AABBCCDD (7 in) X aabbccdd (4 in)
F1 progeny: AaBbCc (5.5 in)
a. The number of pair of genes = 4 genes with 2 alleles each
b. If the number of individuals with 7 inches tail length =
2,
The number of individuals with 4 inches tail length = 2
c. Contribution from each allele = 0.375 inches
Assume that tail length in white rats is a quantitative trait. In one pure-breeding line the...
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...
Please explain these in a way that makes sense as soon as possible 1. Two different autosomal loci (t1 and t2) can render a mouse tailless. The tailless alleles at both loci are recessive. Homozygosity for the recessive allele at either of the loci or at both loci renders the mouse tailless. A tailless mouse homozygous for t1 is mated to a tailless mouse that is homozygous for t2 and produces F1 mice with NORMAL tails. What will be the...
42. true-breeding (homozygote) red flower plant was bred with a true-breeding pure white flower plant (therefore P generation). What flower color you expect in Fl progeny? a) Only red b) Only white c) Only pink d) Both red and white If F, offspring (from the above question # 41) were crossed with each other, what flower color you expect in F2 progeny? a) Only red b) Only white c) Only pink d) All of the above What phenotype ratio you...
6) You cross two pure-breeding strains of peas, one with white flowers and the other with purple flowers. All progeny (FI) from this cross have purple flowers. You cross two F1 individuals, harvest the F2 seeds, and plant a row of twelve (12) seeds in your Aunt Mabel's front yard to improve the landscaping. A) What is the probability that out of the ten (10) total plants, any five (5) of the 12 will have white flowers and any seven...

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...
