ANSWER KEYMendelian Genetics Problem Set 1: ?Basic Genetics Problems In pea plants, yellow peas are dominant to green peas and purple flowers are dominant to white flowers. ?For each of the following parental crosses, give the predicted phenotypic and genotypic ratios of the F1 generation: (heterozygous purple-flowered) x (heterozygous purple-flowered)P: 3 Purple: 1 WhiteG: 1 PP: 2Pp: 1pp(true breeding white-flowered, yellow pea) x (true breeding purple-flowered, green pea)P: All Purple, YellowG: All PpYy(heterozygous purple-flowered, yellow pea) x (heterozygous purple-flowered, yellow pea)P: 9 Purple, Yellow: 3 Purple, Green: 3 White, yellow: 1 White, GreenYou have a purple-flowered pea plant. ?You do not know its genotype. ?Diagram the test-cross you would conduct to determine the plant’s genotype and what results you would expect if the plant was heterozygous and if the plant was homozygous Test cross (1): Pp x pp 50% Purple, 50% WhiteTest cross (2): PP x pp 100% PurpleYou are studying five traits in Pentids, an amazonian flying beetle. ?You have identified each trait as belonging to separate alleles located on separate chromosomes and have categorized those alleles as A,B,C,D, and E, respectively. ?After years of controlled breeding experiments, you have developed your Pentid lines to the point where you can control their genotypes with certainty. ?You perform the following cross:P: ? ? ? ?(AaBbCcDdEe) x (AAbbCCDdEe) ??????????????Predict the probability of recovering offspring of each of the following genotypes from this?parental cross:????????AaBbCcDdEe 1/32AAbbCCDDee1/128AaBbCCDdEe1/32AaBbccDdee0ANSWER KEYMendelian Genetics Problem Set 2: ?ExtendedIn cattle, roan coat color is an example of an autosomal, co-dominant phenotype. ?Roan (CrCw) cattle are produced from the mating of a white (CwCw) cow to a red cow (CrCr). ?Predict the phenotypic and genotypic frequencies of offspring from each of the following crosses:Roan x White3. Red x White P: 50% Roan, 50% WhiteP: 100% RoanG: 50% CrCw, 50% CwCwG: 100% CrCwRoan x Red4. Roan x RoanP: 50% Red, 50% RoanP: 25% Red, 50% Roan, 25% WhiteG: 50% CrCr, 50% CrCwG: 25% CrCr, 50% CrCw, 25% CwCwA man who has type O blood marries a woman who is type AB. ?What are the chances that their child will have each of the following blood types?Type A 50%4.
