In dogs the allele for brown is dominant over the allele for blonde fur, the allele for short fur is dominant over the allele for long fur.

What fraction of the offspring from a Bbff x BBFf cross would be expected to be HETEROZYGOUS FOR BOTH TRAITS?

• 9/16

• 3/16

• 1/16

• 4/16

No hooked nose is dominant to having a hooked nose. If I crossed a homozygous recessive person with another homozygous recessive person...

A. What is the offspring genotypic and phenotypic percentages?

B. Suppose a member of the Royalty secretly married a peasant. Would it be possible for them to have any children with non hooked noses?

• A. 50% hh 50% Hh

  50% no hook 50% hooked nose

  B. yes because the peasant would pass a dominant allele to the offspring (hh x HH or hh x Hh)

• A. 100% hh

  100% hooked nose

  B. yes because the peasant would pass a dominant allele to the offspring (hh x HH or hh x Hh)

• A. 50% HH 50% Hh

  100% hooked nose

  B. no because the peasant would pass a recessive allele to every offspring

• A. 50% hh 50% Hh

  50% no hook 50% hooked nose

  B. no because the hooked nose gene will be masked by the recessive allele

Can the offspring have the extra finger? How can you prove it?

• Ee x Ee

  The cross shows that 50% of the time the offspring will have the dominant allele.

• ee x EE

  The cross shows that 100% of the time the offspring will have the dominant allele.

• ee x Ee

  The cross shows that 50% of the time the offspring could inherit one copy of the dominant allele.

• ee x Ee

  The cross shows that 50% of the time the offspring could inherit two copies of the recessive alleles.

• WwEe x Wwee

  A. There will be 6 different genotypes present from this cross

  B. 2/16 will be black with long ears (wwEe)

• WWEe x WwEe

  A. There will be 9 different genotypes present from this cross

  B. 4/16 will be black with long ears (wwEe)

• WwEe x Wwee

  A. There will be 16 different genotypes present from this cross

  B. 3/16 will be black with long ears (wwEe)
