Looking at the genotypes (allele combinations) of the offspring, write how many of each of the following genotypes there are. The ratio comparing the number of one genotype to others is called the genotypic ratio. - Correct Answer-GG: Gg: gg: What is the percent chance that

one of the offspring will have the genotype GG? - Correct Answer-GG: 25 What is the percent chance that one of the offspring will have the genotype Gg? - Correct Answer-Gg: 50 Looking at the genotypes (allele combinations) of the offspring, label the phenotypes (or appearance) of the offspring. Remember that the dominant allele (uppercase letter) is expressed over the recessive allele (lowercase) letter. - Correct Answer-GG: Green peas Gg: Green peas gg: Yellow peas For every _______ green pods, there is/are __ yellow pod (s) - Correct Answer-3: What is the percent chance that an offspring has green pods? - Correct Answer- 75 What is the percent chance that an offspring has yellow pods? - Correct Answer- 25 Start by filling in the alleles of each parent - Correct Answer-Bb Bb What is the genotypic ratio of the mice offspring? Compare the number of BB genotypes to Bb and bb genotypes. Values separated using a ( : ) - Correct Answer-1:2: What is the percent chance of one of the children having a homozygous genotype? - Correct Answer-50% Let's analyze these results further. Complete the Punnett square by dragging the correct mouse into each cell. Then, answer the questions below. - Correct Answer-1 white colored to the bottom left the rest are Black colored What the phenotypic ratio of black mice to white mice? - Correct Answer-3: What is the percent chance of one of the children being white? - Correct Answer-25%

not have the disease, but carry it? - Correct Answer-C What do you notice about the pattern of inheritance of hemophilia? Select all that apply

  • Correct Answer-It is more common in males than in females. Affected males can make their daughters carriers of the disease. Select which of the following facts are true about red-green color blindness. - Correct Answer-Anyone who has the disorder has a mother who is a carrier. Females can be carriers of the disease. Could Fifi have had hemophilia and lack the blood clotting protein? - Correct Answer-Fifi might have hemophilia Could Malik have had hemophilia and lack the blood clotting protein? - Correct Answer- Malik could not have inherited hemophilia Could Jojo have had hemophilia and lack the blood clotting protein? - Correct Answer- Jojo cannot have inherited hemophilia Could Ami have had hemophilia and lack the blood clotting protein? - Correct Answer- Ami cannot have inherited hemophilia Based on the evidence you collected, whose blood should be eliminated from the list of potential donors? - Correct Answer-Fifi's Complete the Punnett square using the parental alleles - Correct Answer-AB/BO AO/OO Look at the results of the Punnett square. Label each potential child with the correct phenotype (blood type). - Correct Answer-Type AB/ Type B Type A/ Type 0 Use the Punnett square to determine which alleles(s) are dominant. (Dominant alleles suppress recessive alleles) - Correct Answer-A,B Use the Punnett square to determine which allele is recessive. - Correct Answer-O Which of the following genotypes would be codominant? - Correct Answer-AB What is the percent chance that one of their

children will have a codominant phenotype? - Correct Answer-25% Select the correct phenotype for each of the offspring in this Punnett square. - Correct Answer-2, 2, See what are Malik's chances of inheriting the B blood type (that matches Jamal's) by filling in the Punnett square. - Correct Answer-AB,BB AB,BB Sample 1: Malik See what are Malik's chances of inheriting the B blood type (that matches Jamal's) by filling in the Punnett square. - Correct Answer-AB, BB AB, BB Are you sure that Malik has a B blood type? - Correct Answer-Malik might have the B blood type. Does Jojo's blood type match Jamal's blood type? - Correct Answer-yes Sample 4: See what are Ami's chances of inheriting the B blood type (that matches Jamal's) by filling in the Punnett square. - Correct Answer-AA,AA AO,AO Are you sure that Ami has type B blood? - Correct Answer-Ami cannot have the B blood type. Based on the evidence you collected about each donor's blood type, whose blood should be eliminated from the list of potential donors? Whose blood will not be a match for Jamal's B blood type? - Correct Answer-Ami's (Sample #4) Scroll down to match the genotypes below to the correct phenotypes - Correct Answer- 2,3, See what are Malik's chances of inheriting sickle cell disease by filling out the Punnett square below. - Correct Answer-AA,AA AS,AS Is there a chance Malik has sickle cell disease (SS) or is a carrier of the disease (AS)? - Correct Answer-Malik can be a carrier of the disease.
