Genetics Problems - Coursework Example

The gene for fur color distribution is however co-dominant. This gene, S, has two alleles, S1 and S2; S1S1 animals have stripes only; S2S2 animals have spots only; and S1S2 animals have both stripes and spots. The S gene cannot be expressed in white rabbits. 4. A woman XBXb, IA_ whose father was color blind (X-linked, recessive) and who has type A blood has accused a man who is himself color blind XbY, IB_ of fathering her child. The accused man has type B blood. For each of the following cases, indicate whether or not the man might be the father.

Explain your answer by including the genotype of the child and demonstrating how that genotype could be produced. 5. In Siberian Huskies base fur color is represented by black & white fur BB, tan/yellow & white fur Bb, and white only fur bb. Siberians all posses two style of fur wire hair (W_) and smooth (ww). What would the genotype and phenotype frequencies be for a true breading white smooth husky with a black/white fur with heterozygous
