Mendelian Genetics (NEW)
Match the following terms with their definitions heredity the passing of genetic material from parent to offspring gene segments of DNA found in chromosomes that give instructions for producing a certain characteristic trait different forms of a characteristic allele alternative versions of the same gene; offspring inherit one from each parent genotype the combination of alleles inherited from parents phenotype an organism’s appearance or other detectable appearance dominant the allele that is fully expressed whenever the allele is present in an individual recessive an allele that will be masked unless the organism is homozygous for the trait homozygous an organism containing two copies of the same allele for a particular trait heterozygous an organism that contains two different alleles for a particular trait Sort the following into the following categories: Homozygous FF tt AA bb QQ Heterozygous Ww Oo Kk Sort the following into the following categories: Genotype Bb WW tt Pp Phenotype Widow's Peak Tall Brown eyes Purple flowers In pea plants, yellow peas are dominant over green peas.What is the genotypic outcome for a cross between a plant heterozygous for yellow (Yy) peas and a plant homozygous for green (yy) peas? 100% green peas 50% green peas; 50% yellow peas 100% Yy 50% Yy; 50% yy 100% yellow peas In pea plants, yellow peas are dominant over green peas.What is the phenotypic outcome for a cross between a plant heterozygous for yellow (Yy) peas and a plant homozygous for green (yy) peas? 100% green peas 50% green peas; 50% yellow peas 100% Yy 50% Yy; 50% yy 100 % yellow peas In pea plants, yellow peas are dominant over green peas.What is the phenotypic outcome (offspring) of a cross between two plants heterozygous for yellow peas? 25% Yellow 50% Yellow 75% Yellow 25% YY; 50% Yy; 25% yy 100% YY 100% Yellow 100%yy In pea plants, yellow peas are dominant over green peas.What is the genotypic outcome (offspring) of a cross between two plants heterozygous for yellow peas? 25% Yellow 50% Yellow 75% Yellow 25% YY; 50% Yy; 25% yy 100% YY 100% Yellow 100%yy In pea plants, round peas are dominant over wrinkled peas.What is the phenotypic outcome (offspring) of a cross between a plant homozygous for round peas (RR) and a plant homozygous for wrinkled peas (rr)? 0%round 50%round 100%round 100%RR 100%Rr 100%rr In pea plants, round peas are dominant over wrinkled peas.What is the genotypic outcome (offspring) of a cross between a plant homozygous for round peas (RR) and a plant homozygous for wrinkled peas (rr)? 0%round 50%round 100%round 100%RR 100%Rr 100%rr In pea plants, round peas are dominant over wrinkled peas.What is the genotypic outcome (offspring) of a cross between a plant heterozygous and a plant that is homozygous dominant? 0%round 50%round 100%round 50%RR; 50% rr 50%RR; 50%Rr 50%Rr; 50%rr In pea plants, round peas are dominant over wrinkled peas.What is the phenotypic outcome (offspring) of a cross between a plant heterozygous and a plant that is homozygous dominant? 0%round 50%round 100%round 50%RR; 50% rr 50%RR; 50%Rr 50%Rr; 50%rr In pea plants, tall plants are dominant over short plants.What is the phenotypic outcome (offspring) of a cross between two plants that are short? 100% short 100% YY 100% yy In pea plants, tall plants are dominant over short plants.What is the genotypic outcome (offspring) of a cross between two plants that are short? 100% short 100% YY 100% yy A male rabbit with black fur is crossed with a female rabbit with brown fur.
