3rd Periodical Review Quiz
TEST 1
Identify if it is Incomplete Dominance, Co-Dominance,
Multiple Alleles, or Sex-Linked Traits
1. Both alleles contribute to the phenotype of the
offspring. – Co-Dominance
2. Characteristics were blended in a trait.
– Incomplete Dominance
3. One allele is not completely dominant over
another.
– Incomplete Dominance
4. Traits frequently show up among males.
– Sex-Linked Traits
5. A plant with red flowers and a plant with pink
flowers had an offspring with red and pink petals.
– Co-Dominance
6. It results in an intermediate trait. – 7. Hemophilia is an example of a sex-linked trait.
Incomplete Dominance
7. A plant with red flowers and a plant with white
flowers had an offspring with pink flowers.
– Incomplete Dominance
8. Traits appear to skip generations or genders.
– Sex-Linked Traits
9. Two dominant traits are expressed equally
together. – Co-Dominance
10. Genes are only found on the sex chromosomes.
– Sex-Linked Traits
11. The offsprings has both alleles and both are
equally dominant. – Co-Dominance
12. It is also known as blended inheritance because
neither of the genes is able to mask the other.
– Incomplete Dominance
13. A cross between a red-flowered plant and a
blue-flowered plant results in a violet-flowered
plant. – Incomplete Dominance
14. The genes contain three or more alleles.
– Multiple Alleles
15. More than two alleles can code for a gene.
– Multiple Alleles
16. A cross between a red-flowered plant and a
blue-flowered plant results in a plant with red and
blue flowers. – Co-Dominance
17. It is a gene expression in which the phenotype of
the heterozygous individual is intermediate
between those of the parents.
– Incomplete Dominance
18. Many alleles of the same gene code for a single
trait. – Multiple Alleles
19. A third phenotype appears in the heterozygous
condition as a combination of dominant and
recessive phenotypes. – Incomplete Dominance
20. Both alleles are expressed equally in the
genotype of the offspring. – Co-Dominance
TEST 2
Write TRUE if the statement is correct. Otherwise,
write FALSE.
1. ABO blood group shows codominance.
– TRUE
2. Dominant-recessive relationship is shown in
non-Mendelian inheritance. – FALSE
3. There is an intermediate trait in incomplete
dominance. – TRUE
4. Alleles are different forms of genes. – TRUE
5. Sex-linked inheritance means that only the X
chromosomes are affected. – TRUE
6. A plant with white flowers bred with a plant
with red flowers may result in a plant that has
pink flowers. – TRUE
– TRUE
8. If two alleles are co-dominant, both will
express themselves in a blended phenotype.
– TRUE
9. Mutations in genes always result in negative
effects for the organism. – FALSE
10. The carriers of hereditary materials are the
genes. – TRUE
TEST 3
In some chickens, the gene for the color of the
feather is controlled by co-dominance. The allele
for black chicken is B, and the allele for white
chicken is W.
The heterozygous phenotype is known as
erminette, which refers to black-and-white
spotted chickens. Find the following:
a. Genotype for WHITE chicken
b. Genotype for BLACK chicken
c. Genotype for ERMINETTE chicken
d. Phenotypic ratio when a BLACK chicken is
crossed with a ERMINETTE chicken
e. Genotypic ratio if two erminette chickens are
crossed
ANSWERS
a. Genotype for WHITE chicken is WW
b. Genotype for BLACK chicken is BB
c. Genotype for ERMINETTE chicken is BW

BB = BLACK chicken
WW = WHITE chicken
BW = ERMINETTE chicken

d. Phenotypic ratio when a BLACK chicken is crossed

with a ERMINETTE chicken is 1:1
50% BLACK chicken
50% ERMINETTE chicken
e. BB - 1 = 25%
WW - 1 = 25%
BW - 2 = 50%
