Mr. and Mrs. Smith both have widow's peaks (dominant). Their first child has a widow's peak, but their second child doesn't. Mr. Smith accuses Mrs. Smith of being unfaithful to him.

Mr. and Mrs. Anderson both have tightly curled hair. (The hair form gene shows incomplete dominance. There are two alleles, curly and straight. The heterozygote has wavy hair).

Two wavy haired people (one male and one female) marry and have eight children. Of these eight, how many would you expect to be curly haired, how many wavy haired and how many straight haired, assuming that the family follows the expected statistically predicted pattern? Suppose you examine the actual children and discover that three of the eight have curly hair. What do you suppose went wrong?

Basic body color for horses is influenced by several genes, one of which has several different alleles. Two of these alleles - the chestnut (dark brown) allele and a diluting (pale cream) allele (often incorrectly called albino)--- display incomplete dominance. A horse heterozygous for these two alleles is a palomino (golden body color with a flaxen mane and tail). Is it possible to produce a herd of pure-breeding palomino horses? Why or why not. Work the Punnett's square for mating a palomino to a palomino and predict the phenotype ratio among the offspring.
