3. A man who is heterozygous of albinism and is also a non-tongue
roller marries a woman who is an albino and heterozygous for
tongue-rolling. What is the probability that they will have an albino
tongue rolling offspring?
Solution:
Aatt x aaTt => gametes (At and at) x (aT and at)
aT at
At AaTt Aatt
at aaTt aatt
¼ or 25% probability.

Solution: BbCc x BbCc => gametes (BC, Bc, bC and bc) x (BC, Bc,
bC and bc)
Gamet
BC Bc bC bc
es
B_C_ codominant => green (both blue and yellow pigments are produced,
neither dominant over the other)
bbcc homozygous recessive for both traits => white (no pigment
deposited in the feathers)

recessive alleles (t). Albinism is also a single locus trait with normal pigment
being dominant (A) and the lack of pigment being recessive (a). A normally
pigmented woman who cannot taste PTC has a father who is an albino taster.
She marries a homozygous, normally pigmented man who is a taster but who
has a mother that does not taste PTC. What are the expected genotypes and
phenotypes of the possible children?
Solution:
Female x male
Aatt x AATt => gametes (At and at) x (AT and At)

6. In turkeys a dominant gene R produces the familiar bronze color; its recessive allele r results
in red. Another dominant gene H results in normal feathers; its recessive allele h produces
feathers without webbing, so that they resemble tufts of hair. Two bronze turkeys with normal
feathers were mated, and their offspring consisted of 8 bronze with normal feathers, three
bronze with hairy feathers, two red with normal feathers, and one red with hairy feathers. What
were the genotypes of the parents?

Solution:
Analysis offspring:
4
2 red/normal feathers => rrH_
1 red/hairy feathers => rrhh This tells us that both parents carried r and h.
7. In horses black is dependent upon a dominant gene, B, and chestnut upon its recessive
allele, b. The trotting gait is due to a dominant allele T, and the pacing gait to its recessive allele,
t. If a homozygous black pacer is mated to a homozygous chestnut trotter, what will be the
appearance of the F1 generation?
Solution:
bT
Bt BbTt (F1’s)
8. Referring to the previous question (Question 7), what would be the genotypes and
phenotypes (and their expected ratios or percentages) of the offspring produced by a mating
between an F1 generation individual and a chestnut pacer?
Solution:
BbTt x bbtt => gametes (BT, Bt, bT, and bt) x (bt)
bt
BT BbTt
Bt Bbtt
bT bbTt
bt bbtt
Phenotypic ratio => 1 black trotter: 1 black pacer: 1 chestnut trotter: 1 chestnut pacer
