How can a pure white mouse help determine the genotype of a black mouse? (Hint: We cannot see genotype but we can see difference

s in the phenotype of their offspring).

Answer:

A white mouse is purely recessive, and will produce black offspring if the other mouse contributes a black gene.

Explanation:

If Bb then the offspring will be 50% Bb and 50% bb. This is called a test cross, where we use a recessive to determine the genotype of a dominant phenotype.

There is a 50% probability that the flowers of a plant with pink flowers parents will have pink flowers due to incomplete dominance.

The genotypes and phenotypes that we will employ to address this issue are as follows:

RR - Red

RW - Pink

WW -  White

They would have the RW genotype as the first parent plant is pink. They would have the WW genotype because the other parent is white. When the Pink flower parents are crossed, the children that might be expected from this cross

RW x RW

The progeny will be : 1 RR (Red), 2 RW (Pink) and 1 WW (White)

This shows that there is a 50% probability that the progeny will have the RW genotype and thus the pink phenotype. Additionally, we can observe that there is a 25% likelihood that the progeny will have the WW and RR genotype and the white and Red phenotype.
