Kitty

the cat species by Fuji


Single allele traits
SS & Ss = Silly kitty | ss = frown kitty

CC & Cc = long claws kitty | cc = no claws kitty


Co-dominant traits
the color expresses in the kitty:
BB = Black | bb = White | Bb = Black and white mixed
so in this case a Co-dominant occurs.
Multiple allele trait
Iʸ Iʸ, Iʸ i= Yellow eyes Iᴮ Iᴮ, Iᴮ i = Brown eyes

Iʸ Iᴮ = Blue eyes ii = white eyes


Sex linked traits Xˡ Y- male,
Short tail
Xᴸ Y - male,
Long tail

Xᴸ Xᴸ - female, Xᴸ Xˡ - female, Xˡ Xˡ - female,


Long tail Long tail (carrier) Short tail
Meet the family
Male Cat
Ss = silly cat

cc = no claws

Bb = Black and white

Iʸ Iᴮ = Blue eyes

Xᴸ Y - male, Long tail


Meet the family
Female Cat
ss = frown cat

CC = long claws

BB = Black

ii = white eyes

Xᴸ Xˡ - female, Long tail (carrier)


Question
Time
Question
1. A cat that is homozygous dominant for being silly (SS) and heterozygous for long claws (Cc) is crossed with a cat that is
recessive for being frown (ss) and recessive for having a no claws (cc). What are the possible genotypic & phenotypic outcomes?

2. A male cat that has a short tail (Xˡ Y) and a female cat that is a carrier (Xᴸ Xˡ ). What is the possibilitiy that they will have a
Short tail kitty. (tail is a sex-linked trait)

3.If two heterozygous for being black and white (Bb) individuals had an offspring, what are the offspring's possible genotypes
and phenotype? (color is a co-dominant)

4. Eye color is a multiple allele traits and having claws is a single allele traits. A cat that has yellow eyes and long claws crossed
with a cat that has brown eyes and long claws, they have an offspring that has white eyes and no claws. How is that possible?

5..If you have a female cat that is heterozygous for long tail . What genotype and phenotype of a male cat to be crossed with to
make it possible to get a short tail male/female. (tail is a sex-linked trait)
