AGR 2202. WORK SHEET #S (INEWISVALS . Name: Genetics Practice - Monohybrids & Dihybrids 1. Apea plant isthe F1 offspring ofa true-breeding plant with purple flowers and a true-breeding plant with white flowers. This plantis crossed with one that has white flowers {recessive). How many of the plants in the next generation vill have white flowers? 2. In humans, Cystic Fibrosis is caused be a recessive allele on chromosome 7. A person must inherit two of these alleles to hhave the disease. What are the chances ofa child having the disease if both of the parents are heterozygous? 3. ifattached earlobes are recessive, and the ‘mother has attached earlobes (ff) and the father isa heterozygote (Ff), how many of their childcen will have attached earlobes? 4. In goats, a recessive gene causes the goats to "faint” when ‘they are startled. A farmer has a goat that isa carter for the Tainting gene (Gg). Gertrude is mated with one that is homozygous dominant. How many of their offspring will be falinters? 5, Test crosses are performed to determine the genotype of {an organism. A farmer buys a goat whose owner claims has sired fainting goats, through Gary has never actually fainted himself. What type of goat (genotype/shenotype) should the farmer mate with Gary to determine if Gary really sa carter Explain your reasoning by showing the cross. 6. In Guinea pigs, short hair is ‘dominant over long hai. Also, in Guinea pigs, black eyes are dominant to red eyes. A male Guinea pig that is heterozygous for booth traits (HhBb) is crossed with a female that is long haired and red eyed (hhbb), What are the expected phenotypes of their offspring and in what proportion? 7. f both parents are heterozygous for both traits, what are the expected phenotypes of their offspring and in what Proportion? (You do not need to show a Punnett square for this one) 8. In pea plants, purple lowers are dominant towhite flowers. Round seeds are dominant to wrinkled seeds. Do these ‘crosses without a Punnett square. Pprr x ppRr How many are purple with wrinkled seeds? PRR x Pprr How many are purple with round seeds? Pprr x PpRr How many are purple with round seeds? PpRr x PpRr How many are purple with wrinkled seeds?
