In domesticated dogs, hair type is controlled by two different alleles. The allele for wire hair is (H) and the allele for smooth hair is (h).
When two heterozygous dogs are crossed, what percentage of the offspring is expected to be homozygous for smooth hair?
50%
75%
25%
0%
A genetic cross involving two unlinked genes is represented.
AaGG x aaGg
Which genotype is NOT possible in the offspring produced by the cross?
AaGG
Aagg
aaGg
aaGG
Achondroplasia is an inherited condition that affects the formation of bone in humans. The allele for achondroplasia (A) is dominant to the unaffected allele (a).
If a person who is homozygous dominant has children with a person who is homozygous recessive, what percentage of their children will likely have achondroplasia?
Enter your answer in the box. Your answer must be a whole number.
(a)
In Pea plants, tall (T) is dominant to short (t). Red flowers (R) are dominant to White Flowers (r).
What are my chances of having a Tall Pea plant with Red flowers if I cross these two plants: (TtRr x TtRr)?
164 or 25%
169 or 56.25%
161 or 6.25%
In Goldfish, the color Gold (GG) is dominant to White (WW). Goldfish show CoDominance with these colors. If a Golden Goldfish crosses a White Goldfish, the result is a Spotted Goldfish (GW).

Gold: 25%
White: 25%
Spotted: 50%
Gold: 50%
White: 0%
Spotted: 50%
Gold: 0%
White: 25%
Spotted: 75%
Gold: 50%
White: 50%
