If a white female mouse without spots is crossed to a gray male with brown spots, what proportion of their daughters would have the same phenotype as their mother? W = long whiskers (dominant) W'= black fur (incomplete dominance) w = short whiskers (recessive) W = white fur (incomplete dominance) E = long ears (dominant) e = short ears (recessive) S = presence of brown spots (dominant and sex-linked) s = absence of brown spots (recessive and sex-linked)

In man, assume that spotted skin (S) is dominant over non-spotted skin (s) and that wooly hair (W) is dominant over non-wooly hair (w). Cross a marriage between a heterozygous spotted, non-wooly man with a heterozygous wooly-haired, non-spotted woman. Give genotypic and phenotypic ratios of offspring. In horses, black is dependent upon a dominant gene, B, and chestnut upon its recessive allele, b. The trotting gait is due to a dominant gene, T, the pacing gait to its recessive allele, t. If a homozygous black pacer is mated to a homozygous chestnut trotter, what will be the appearance of the F1 generation?
n an example of recessive epistasis the deposition of pigment into hair follicles of the Labrador Retriever is governed by a dominant gene (C) and lack of deposition by its recessive allele (c). Lack of pigment deposition produces a yellow coat color. The color of pigment is governed by an independently assorting hypostatic gene, the dominant allele (B) produces black pigment and its recessive allele (b) produces brown. What coat color ratio is expected from the cross of a brown dog (bbCc) to a black dog (BbCc)? 1/2 brown, 1/2 black 1/4 black, 1/4 brown, 1/2 yellow 1/2 black, 1/4 brown, 1/4 yellow 3/8 black, 1/8 brown, 1/2 yellow 3/8 black, 3/8 brown, 1/4 yellow
Carrion beetles lay their eggs in dead animals and then bury them in the ground until they hatch. Assume that the preference for fresh meat (F) is dominant to the preference for rotted meat and that the tendency to bury the meat shallow (S) is dominant to the tendency to bury the meat deep. Suppose a female carrion beetle homozygous dominant for both traits mates with a male homozygous recessive for both traits. 1) What will the F1 genotypic ratio be? 2) What are the chances of obtaining a beetle that is heterozygous for both traits?
In humans, dark hair (D) is dominant over blondness (d), and color blindness (c) is a sex-linked recessive trait. A woman has a blond brother, a blond mother, and a dark-haired father. Her brother and her parents have normal vision. She bears the following three children by her blond, normal-visioned husband: a dark-haired son with normal vision, a dark-haired daughter with normal vision, and a dark-haired color blind son. What is the probability that her next (fourth) child will be a colorblind boy.

In Labrador retrievers, two genes determine fur color: the E gene and the B gene. Black fur (B) is dominant to brown fur (b). However, the presence of (ee) will overshadow and create a puppy with yellow fur. Create a Punnett square crossing 2 Labs that are heterozygous for both genes. What are the resulting phenotypes? Don’t forget to take epistasis into account!

Black coat colour in cocker Spaniels is governed by a dominant allele B and red coat colour by its recessive allele b; solid pattern is governed by the dominant allele of an independently assorting locus S, and sported pattern by its recessive allele s. A solid black male is mated to a solid red female and produces a litter of six pups: two solid black, two solid red, one black and white, and one red and white. (a) What are the possible genotypes of all the phenotypes obtainable? (b) Determine genotype of the parents. Hint- an unknown portion of a genotype may be indicated by a dash (-).
Eye color in chimpanzees is coded for by one gene with two alleles, "A" and "a". “A" is dominant and codes for dark black eyes. "a" is recessive and codes for light brown eyes. If a black eyed chimpanzee (Parent A) has offspring with a light brown eyed chimpanzee (Parent B), and ½ of their offspring are black eyed and the other 2 are light brown eyed, then what is Parent A's genotype? AA Aa aa Aaa
EXAMPLE PROBLEM Two black female mice are crossed with a brown male. In several litters, female I produced 9 black offspring and 7 brown; female II produced 57 black offspring. What deductions can you make about the inheritance of black and brown coat color in mice? What are the genotypes of the parents? Dominance and recessive describe which of two possible phenotypes are exhibited when two different alleles occur in the same individual.
In dogs, the trait for coat color influences the trait for short legs. Black coat (B) is dominant to gray coat (b) while short legs (l) is recessive to long legs (L). However, if a dog has a gray coat, they automatically have short legs. Determine the phenotypic frequency of a gray dog with short legs if two Black long-legged dogs (Bb,Ll x Bb,Ll) are the parents.
