For this week's CRQ, you are to design your own genetic cross between a female and a male. Be sure to include each of the follow

ing within your cross and then you will need to provide the solution as well.
1. What are the dominant and recessive traits in cross?
2. Is the male homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous?
3. Is the female homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous?

In your answer, provide the following as well:
1. genotypes and phenotypes for parent and offspring



If you want to insert an image of your cross, you may as well but NOT required.



Please write in complete sentences.

Answer and Explanation:

Punnett squares are illustrations that display the product of hybrid trait crosses by genetic breeding. Established parent genotypes and phenotypes are used and are usually compatible with Mendelian ratios and inheritance. The phnomenon influencing this behaviour is the

  • Law of Segregation,
  • Law of Independent assortment
  • and Dominance

For this cross...

Assuming Widow's peak= dominant

<u> 1. What are the dominant and recessive traits in cross?</u>

Parent generation or P generation:

gametes: Ww → Widow's peak dominant (W), No Widow's peak recessive (w)

<u>2. Is the male homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous?</u>

Heterozygousity describes the allelic makeup; these traits are made of two different forms of the same gene.

Male: Ww  →  with the W.peak;  

(Thus, with both W and w this is a heterozygous trait)

<u>3. Is the female homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous?</u>

However, homozygous traits are made up of the same forms of the gene called alleles.

Female: ww → without the W.peak  

(Thus, with both w ad w this is a homozygous trait)

<u>1. genotypes and phenotypes for parent and offspring...</u>

<u></u>

Assuming heterozygousity of the male , for the cross

P generation:                          Ww× ww

                            Widow's peak  ×No Widow's peak  

F1 generation:

  • genotype:                       Ww × ww       ...(from punnet square)
  • phenotype:          2 with the W.peak; 2 without

<em>∴ 50% are genotypically heterozygous while 50% is homozygous , 2 with the W.peak; 2 without </em>

(c) Based on the data in Table 1, describe why the dominant alleles for body color and wing shape are the alleles that produce a
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Consider the below table of F2 data of phenotypic flies: we can reconstruct the table as seen in the second attached image below:

From the above observations it is clear the Gray body long wings and Ebony body vestigial wings are the parental combinations and that the Gray body vestigial wings and Ebony body long wings are the recombinants.

Also the ratio indicates that Gray body is dominant over ebony body and that long wings is dominant over vestigial wings.

here the genes for the two characters have shown independent assortment which means that the genes are unlinked if located on the same chromosome or are located  on different chromosomes.

Now F1 hybrid= GgLl (G for Grey and L for Long)

Cross between F1 hybrid and true breeding Gray vestigial (GGll)

GgLl x GG ll

Gametes-----------> GL Gl gL gl Gl

        GL                          Gl                      gL                  gl

Gl    GGLl                      GGll                  GgLl               Ggll

   (Gray long)      (Gray vestigial)     (gray Long)     (Gray vestigial)

Therefore the probability of getting the flies with gray body vestigial wings= 2/4= 50%

b) The reason why the students obtained the above given F2 results involving a cross between true breeding Gray body and long wings with true breeding Ebony body and vestigial wings is that the genes for the two charcters asssort independently in F2 generation and that the genes are not linked as:

Parents------------------> GGLL x ggll

Gametes -----------------> GL gl

F1---------------------> GgLl (Gray long but in heterozous condition)

Now GgLl x GgLl

Gametes GL Gl gL gl   GL Gl gL gl

Here gametes assorted independently and hence in F2 generation we got the above results (U can show the results in the form of punnett square.
