The village of Oblong has 400 normally-shaped residents.
Transferrin is an iron carrier found in blood, and
electrophoretic variation of this protein is determined by
an autosomal codominant system. The citizens of Oblong were
typed for their transferrin complements. The distribution
of transferrin phenotypes was: 100 CC, 100 CD, and 200 DD.
What is the frequency of the C allele?

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?

In cucumbers normal leaves (N) are dominant to curled leaves (n) and elongated fruit (L) is dominant to spherical fruit and these genes are linked on the same chromosome. If a pure-breeding normal-leaved, elongated fruit cucumber is crossed with a curled-leaved, spherical fruit cucumber, what will be the phenotype of the F1? the phenotypic ratio of the F2?
