A sex-influenced trait is dominant in males of a certain speciesof animal and causes bushy tails. The same trait is recessive infemales. Fur color is not sex-influenced.Yellow fur is dominantto white fur. A true-breeding female with a bushy tail and yellowfur was crossed to a white male without a bushy tail (i.e., a normaltail). The F1 females were then crossed to white males withoutbushy tails. The following results were obtained: A. Conduct a chi square test to determine if these two genes arelinked.B. If the genes are linked, calculate the map distance betweenthem. Explain which data you used in your calculation.
Albino rabbits (lacking pigment) are homozygous forthe recessive c allele (C allows pigment formation).Rabbits homozygous for the recessive b allele makebrown pigment, while those with at least one copy ofB make black pigment. True-breeding brown rabbitswere crossed to albinos, which were also BB. F1 rabbits, which were all black, were crossed to the doublerecessive (bb cc). The progeny obtained were 34black, 66 brown, and 100 albino.a. What phenotypic proportions would have beenexpected if the b and c loci were unlinked?b. How far apart are the two loci?
Manx cats have no tail. This is caused by a dominantmutation M, which is embryo lethal when homozygous. An unlinked gene B controls the color of the fur onthe cat's tail. The dominant B allele produces black fur on tails, while the recessive allele b produceswhite fur on tails. A Manx cat that is B/B is crossed to a white-tailed cat. Half of the F1 progeny hadthe Manx phenotype and the other half had normal, black tails.The F1 cats with the Manx phenotype were crossed to each other, producing F2 cats. What is the ratioof the following phenotypes in the F2
In sheep, the formation of horns is a sex-influenced trait; the allelethat results in horns is dominant in males and recessive in females.Females must be homozygous for the horned allele to have horns.A horned ram was crossed to a polled (unhorned) ewe, and the firstoffspring they produced was a horned ewe. What are the genotypesof the parents?

In individuals affected by cystic fibrosis, salt crystals may appear afterperspiration dries up. In addition, the disease causes respiratory disorderswhich can be both debilitating and lethal.

As a Drosophila research geneticist, you keep stocksof flies of specific genotypes. You have a fly that hasnormal wings (dominant phenotype). Flies with shortwings are homozygous for a recessive allele of thewing-length gene. You need to know if this fly withnormal wings is pure-breeding or heterozygous forthe wing-length trait. What cross would you do todetermine the genotype, and what results would youexpect for each possible genotype?
