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?

Is biotechnology more dangerous to other gene transfer technologies breeding?
what is the difference between test cross and back cross?
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?
Is Genetic Engineering worth the cost and effort?
Flower position, stem length, and seed shape were three traits that were studied by Mendel. Each is controlled by an independently assorting gene. If a plant that is heterozygous for all three traits was allowed to self- fertilize, what proportion of the offspring would be expected to show all three dominant phenotypes?

A blastomere was removed from an 8-cell human embryo, and its beta-globin gene was amplified by PCR. The beta-globin DNA was treated with an enzyme that cuts on either side of and within the normal allele (producing a small fragment), but not within the sickle cell allele (producing a large fragment). Electrophoresis of the treated DNA from the blastomere demonstrated the presence of both a large and small fragment derived from the beta-globin genes. How should you interpret this test?
