In mice colored coat is dominant to albinism. Sniffles, a
male mouse with a colored coat is mated to Esmeralda, an
alluring albino. The resulting litter of six young all had
colored fur. The next time around Esmeralda was mated with
Whiskers, who was the same color as Sniffles; some of this
litter were white.

a)What are the probable genotypes of Sniffles, Esmeralda,
and Whiskers?
b) If a male of the 1st litterwas mated to a colored female
of the 2nd litter, what phenotypic ratio might be expected
among the offspring?
c)What would be the expected results if a male of the 1st
litter was mated to an albino from the 2nd?

In hogs a gene that produces a white belt around the animal's body is dominant over its allele for a uniform body. Another independent dominant gene produces fusion of the hoof (syndactyly). Suppose a uniformly colored hog homozygous for syndactyly is mated with a normal footed hog homozygous for the belted character. What would be the phenotype of the F1? If the F1's interbreed, what would be the phenotypic ratio of the F2?

The weight of the fruit of one variety of squashes is determined by three pairs of genes: AABBCC produces 6 lb squashes and aabbcc produces 3 lb squashes. Each dominant allele adds 1/2 lb tothe base weight (3 lb). If a pure breeding line that produced 6 lb squashes was crossed with a pure breeding line that produced 3 lb squashes, what would be the phenotypic ratio of the F1 and the F2?
