If traits are inherited together, for example if Mendel found that this pea plant always had yellow and round seeds or green and wrinkled but never yellow and wrinkled or green and round. The explanation for this must be that; a) There is one gene controlling both phenotypes Ob) The genes are located close together on the same chromosome Oc) The genes are located on the same chromosome d) The genes are located close together on the same chromosome or there could be one gene controlling both phenotypes

All of the following are reasons that Mendel chose the pea plant as a model system for his studies EXCEPT ________. A) peas have a relatively short generation time B) peas produce large numbers of seeds C) he could control which parents were involved in mating D) peas only reproduce by cross-fertilization
Mendel discovered that pea traits were inherited as unit factors occurring in pairs, these distributing to subsequent generations randomly through the gametes. The unit factors would not have been paired ifA) the temperature had been differentB) pea plants had not been diploidC) peas had been self-fertileD) The statement is false: unit factors occur singly in Mendel’s sweet peasE) The statement is false: unit factors occur in sets of three in Mendel’s sweet peas Which of the following statements about the theory of epigenesis is incorrect? A) William Harvey was its main proponent back in the 1500s and 1600s.B) It recast the focus of life to the egg, away from male contributions which had dominated theory for centuriesC) It was incompatible with the notion of preformationism, which had been popular for some timeD) It suffered from teleological notions in that it argued that the organism developed with a certain drive in a certain direction as if it knew where it was going or had a…
In the P cross between a homozygous, round pea parent and a homozygous, wrinkled pea parent, which of the following did Mendel either observe or subsequently conclude? A) All somewhat wrinkled peas in the F1 showed blending inheritance. B) All round F1 peas led Mendel to conclude independent assortment. C) The F1 generation consisted of all peas being round and yellow. D) Two of the above are correct. E) None of the above is correct.
Mendel observed 7 pairs of contrasting characters in Pisum sativum, One of the following is not a part of that, Find out:a) Tall and Dwartb) Yellow and Green seed colourc) Terminal and Axial flowerd) Smooth and Rough stem
The following pedigree shows the pattern of inheritance of red-green color blindness in a family. Females are shown as circles and males as squares; the squares or circles of individuals affected by the trait are filled in black. What is the chance that a son of the third-generation female indicated by the arrow will be color blind if the father is not color blind? If he is color blind?
When Mendel examined the inheritance of pod colour, he crossed true- breeding green and true-breeding yellow plants. All of the plants produced were yellow. He then crossed the yellow plants and found that some of the offspring were green and some were yellow. What did he conclude from this? * O a) yellow is dominant to green O b) the F1 generation was heterozygous c) each trait has two factors all of a, b, andc both a and c

In the P cross between a homozygous, round pea parent and a homozygous, wrinkled pea parent, which of the following did Mendel either observe or subsequently conclude? Question 5 options: A) All somewhat wrinkled peas in the F1 showed blending inheritance. B) All round F1 peas led Mendel to conclude independent assortment. C) The F2 generation revealed some wrinkled peas, indicating the wrinkled pea form was recessive to the round form. D) Two of the above are correct. E) None of the above is correct. Which of the following is not a trait found in the pea plants that Mendel used in his research? Question 3 options: A) The flowers can be pollinated by hand. B) They are self-pollinating. C) The phenotypes studied are caused by more than two alleles in the population. D) Pure genetic lines can be established. E) All but two of the traits studied have genes that occur on distinct chromosomes.
Using the pedigree chart, explain: a) The number of generations seen. b) If all blue-coloured shapes are affected with disease X- how many males are affected? how many females are affected? c) Does this disease have a dominant or recessive inheritance pattern? Justify your answer.
When Mendel did his experiments, it was the case that the genes for each trait were on separate pairs of homologous chromosomes. For example, the genes for pod color were on one pair of chromosomes and the genes for the seed coat were on a different pair of chromosomes. What if the genes for the two traits were on the same chromosome? (That is, if the gene for pod color was on the same chromosome as the gene for seed coat.) Would Mendel’s 2nd Law still hold? Why or why not?
One of Mendel's most significant results was the conclusion that genes determining different characteristics are transmitted independently. In pea plants, Mendel found that round peas (r) are a dominant trait over wrinkled peas (w). Mendel crossbred a group of (rr, yy) peas with a group of ( ww ,gg) peas. In t his notation, rr denotes a pea with two "round" genes and ww denotes a pea with two "wrinkled" genes. The first generation were either (rw,yg) , (rw ,gy) , (wr, yg), or (wr, gy) plants with both hybrid shape and hybrid color. Breeding among the first generation yielded second-generation plants in which genes for each characteristic were equally likely to be either dominant or recessive. What is the probability P [Y] that a second-generation pea plant has yellow seeds? What is the probability P [R] that a second-generation plant has round peas? Are R and Y independent events? How many visibly different kinds of pea plants would Mendel observe in the second generation? What are the…
raccoons may have wide, medium-sized, or narrow bands around their tails. They may also havethe habit of washing all, or some of their food, or do not wash their food at all. a) assign genotypes to the phenotypes mentioned (see attached table) b. What mode of inheritance would most likely be exhibited by these traits if crosses were made? c. If two raccoons with medium-sized tail bands and have the habit of washing some of theirfoods will be crossed, what is the probability of having F1 raccoons with: c.1 wide tail bands that won’t wash any of their food? c.2 the same genotype as the parent raccoons? d. If a raccoon with a wide tail band that washes only some of its food is crossed with a raccoonwith a narrow tail band that doesn’t wash any food, what percentage of their offspring wouldbe medium-tailed and washes all its food?
