Suppose that the "fabulous" phenotype is controlled by two genes, A and B, as shown in the diagram below. Allele A produces enou

gh enzyme 1 to convert "plain" to "smashing." Allele a produces no enzyme 1. Allele B produces enough enzyme 2 to convert "smashing" to "fabulous." Allele b produces no enzyme 2. The A and B genes are both autosomal and assort independently. A true-breeding "fabulous" father and a true-breeding "plain" mother (aa bb) mate. What will be the expected ratio of the F_2 offspring from the F_1 generation? 9 "fabulous" 7 "plain" 13 "fabulous" 3 "plain" 9 "fabulous": 3 "smashing": 4 "plain" 12 "plain" 3 "fabulous" 1 "smashing" 15 "fabulous": 1 "smashing"

Answer:

The expected ratio of the F_2 generation from F_1 generation will be

<u>9 "fabulous": 3 "smashing": 4 "plain" </u>

Explanation:

The expression of the phenotype will follow Mendel's Dihybrid cross.

plain→smashing

(only when allele A is present, which produces Enzyme 1)

smashing→fabulous

(only when allele B is present, which produces Enzyme 2)

Keeping the above statements in mind, in F_2 generation, only the genotypes having both A and B alleles will express phenotype "fabulous",as both Enzyme 1 and Enzyme 2 are required for that. The genotype having at-least one A allele and no B allele will produce the phenotype "smashing", as Enzyme 1,produced by allele A, will convert "plain" into "smashing". Hence, the dihybrid cross will as in the attachment.

Mr. and Mrs. Green have a daughter, Georgia, who was born at Riverside Community Hospital. Mr. and Mrs. Blue have a daughter, Be
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Yes, Mrs Green is correct that Belle is her biological daughter

Explanation:

According to this question, Mr. and Mrs. Green is said to have a daughter, Georgia while Mr. and Mrs. Blue is said to have a daughter, Belle. Both daughters were born the same day. Hence, a controversy occured as Mrs. Green thinks that Belle is her biological daughter.

Based on the blood analysis, the following were obtained:

Mr. Green: Type A

Mrs. Green: Type A

Georgia: Type A

Mr. Blue: Type AB

Mrs. Blue: Type A

Belle: Type O

The genotype of the following blood types is as follows:

Type A - iAiA or iAi

Type B - iBiB or iBi

Type O - ii

Type AB - iAiB

From the analysis of blood types of Mr and Mrs Green, which are both type A, they can possibly produce a child with type A.

However, from the analysis of Mr. and Mrs. Blue, it is impossible to have a child with blood type O. However it is possible for Mr and Mrs. Green if they are both heterozygous (iAi × iAi). The punnet square is attached. Hence, Mrs Green is correct about her claim since Mr. and Mrs. Blue cannot have a child with blood type A.
