In sheep, white is due to a dominant gene (W), black to its recessive allele (w). A white ewe mated to a white ram produces a bl

ack lamb. If they produce another offspring, could it be white? If so, what are the chances of it being white? List the genotypes of all animals mentioned in this problem.

Answer:

Yes, 75%

Explanation:

Since the first offspring produced between the ram and the ewe was black you can determine that both sheep have a recessive and dominant allele. Both of the parent's genotypes would be Ww, this is because they both have the white phenotype and they were able to produce a black offspring. Since both parents have a genotype of Ww the probability of a black offspring being produced is 25% and 75% for a white lamb.

4. Suppose that a dominant allele (P) codes for a polka-dot tail and a recessive allele (p) codes for a solid colored tail. If t
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The correct answer would be:

  • Genotype ratio: 1 (PP) : 2 (Pp) : 1 (pp)
  • Phenotypic ratio: 3 (polka-dot tails) : solid colored tail

The genotype of both parents is Pp (heterozygous).

Thus, both the parent would produce two types of gametes which are P and p.

The cross would result in the production of offspring with three types of genotype PP, Pp, and pp in 1:2:1.

Offspring with PP and Pp will have a polka-dotted tail as it is the dominant trait.

Thus, the phenotype ratio would be 3 (polka-dotted tail) : 1 (solid colored tail).
