1.

In cabbage butterflies,
White wings are
dominant to yellow
wings. If a Ww
butterfly is crossed
with a ww butterfly,
what are the possible
genotypes and
phenotypes of the
offspring and the
percent chance for
each?
2. In dogs, there is a
hereditary type of
deafness caused by a
recessive gene. Two dogs
who carry the gene for
deafness but have
normal hearing are
mated. What are the
possible genotypes and
phenotypes of their
offspring and the percent
chance for each?
3. In guinea pigs, short
hair is dominant over long
hair. If a short haired SS
guinea pig is crossed with
a long
haired ss guinea pig, what
are the possible
genotypes and
phenotypes of their
offspring and the percent
chance of each?
4. Can you curl your tongue
up on the sides? Tongue-
curling in humans is a
dominant genetic trait.
Suppose a man who is Tt for
tongue-curling marries a
woman who is also Tt for this
trait. What are the possible
genotypes and phenotypes
of their children and the
percent chance for each?
5. In guinea pigs, rough
coats are dominant over
smooth coats. If an RR
guinea pig is crossed
with a Rr guinea pig,
what are the possible
genotypes and
phenotypes of the
offspring? What are the
chances of each?
