Mendelian Genetics Workbook Name ____________________________________________ 1. Basic Monohybrid Practice Problems A pea plant with round seeds is cross-pollinated with a pea plant that has wrinkled seeds. For the cross indicate the following: the genotypes of the parents if the round-seed plant were heterozygous the gametes produced by the round and wrinkled-seed parents the genotypes and phenotypes of the F1 generation the F2 generation if the two rounded plants from the F1 generation were allowed to cross-pollinate 2. For Labrador retrievers, black fur color (B) is dominant to yellow (b). If a homozygous black male mated with a homozygous yellow female, what would the puppies look like? Explain how a homozygous black dog can have a different genotype than a heterozygous black dog. Could the heterozygous black dog have the same genotype as a yellow-haired dog? Explain. 3. For Dalmation dogs, the spotted condition is dominant to non- spotted. Using a Punnett square, show the cross between two heterozygous parents. A spotted female Dalmation dog mates with an unknown father. From the appearance of the pups, the owner concludes that the male was a Dalmation. The owner notes that the female had six pups, 3 spotted and three non-spotted. What is the phenotype of the unknown male? For Mexican hairless dogs, the hairless condition is dominant to hairy. A litter of eight pups is found; six are hairless and two are hairy. What is the genotype of their parents? 2. Monohybrid Crosses Circle the heterozygous genotypes. AA ss Bb Ss rr ii Ii RR Tt Given that white coats (W) are dominant to black (w) in sheep, what are the phenotypes of the following genotypes? Homozygous dominant _____ Heterozygous _____ Homozygous Recessive _____ In pigs white color (W) is dominant and black (w) is recessive. Using diagrams and mathematics, show the results of the following crosses. a pure white pig is mated with a pure black pig two heterozygous
