Answer / sujay
consider genes for brown eyed is BB-dominant and gene for
blue eyed is bb-recessive
If woman is homozygous that is BB & marries with blue eyed
man then proportion of blue eyed children are like this:
man(BLUE) x woman(BROWN)
bb BB
b b B B
Bb Bb Bb Bb no blue eyed children and 0% of
offsprings are blue eyed.
If woman is heterozygous Bb and marries with blue eyed man
then proportion of blue eyed children are like this:
man(BLUE) x woman(BROWN)
bb Bb
b b B b
Bb bb Bb bb
here two children are blue eyed that 50% of the offspring
will be having blue eyes and 50% of children are brown eyed.

In snapdragons tallness (T) is dominant to dwarfness (t). Red flowers are produced by RR and white flowers by rr but the heterozygous Rr is pink. A dwarf red snapdragon is crossed to a homozygous tall plant with white flowers. What is the phenotypic ratio of the F1? 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?
