For the following questions, write the GENEOTYPES OF THE PARENTS ONLY. DO NOT DO THE PUNNETT SQUARE!

1) A homozygous black rat is crossed with a homozygous white rat (black is recessive).

2) A homozygous brown mouse is crossed with a heterozygous brown mouse (tan is recessive).

3) Two heterozygous white rabbits are crossed.

4) A heterozygous white rabbit is crossed with a homozygous black rabbit.

For the following, complete the punnett square and give the genotype and phenotype PERCENTAGES.

5) A homozygous brown mouse is crossed with a heterozygous brown mouse (tan is the recessive color).

7. A nurse at a hospital removed the wrist tags of three babies in the maternity ward. She needs to figure out which baby belongs to which parents, so she checks their blood types. Using the chart below, match the baby to its correct parents. Show the crosses to prove your choices.

Parents / Blood Types / Baby / Blood type
Mr. Hartzel / O
Mrs. Hartzel / A / Jennifer / O
Mr. Simon / AB / Rebecca / A
Mrs. Simon / AB / Holly / B
Mr. Peach / O
Mrs. Peach / O

Hemophilia is a sex-linked trait found on the X chromosome. To get this disease, a person must have a recessive copy of the gene (h) on every X chromosome. Predict the genotypic and phenotypic percentages of the offspring if a woman who was a carrier for the disease had a baby with a man who had the disease.

Genotype of Mother: ______Genotype of Father:______

Baldness is also a sex-linked trait found on the X chromosome. To become bald, a person must have a recessive copy of the gene (b) on every X chromosome. Predict the genotypic and phenotypic probabilities of the offspring if a woman who has no history of baldness in her family (B) had a baby with a man who was bald.

Genotype of Mother: ______Genotype of Father:______

A woman who is colorblind (XcXc) can expect —

A 100% of her female offspring to be colorblind.

B 100% of her male offspring to be colorblind.

C 50% of her female offspring to be colorblind.

D 50% of her male offspring to be colorblind.

In people, the trait for colorblindness (Xb) is a recessive sex linked trait and normal vision (XB) is dominant. If a female who is heterozygous for colorblindness has children with a man who has normal vision, what percent of their male children would be expected to be color blind?

A 0%

B 25%

C 50%

D 100%

Imagine that the dark shapes are individual with a recessive disease.

1. Using the letter r, what would the genotype of someone with the disease have to be?

On the diagram above, label all of the dark shapes with that genotype.

2. Using the letter R, what are the two genotypes someone with a white shape could have?

3. Label the genotypes of individuals I1 ,II2 and II3. Remember that if someone has the disease, they had to get a recessive gene from both parents and that a parent with the disease has to pass on the recessive gene.

1. If you look at the offspring of the second line, you will notice that one of their kids is black. You can use this to tell if black is dominant or recessive. Using R/r, what is the genotype of black shapes?

Label all of the black shapes in the diagram.

2. Now go back and label the genotypes of the parents in the second line.

3. Look at the middle parents in the third line and label their genotypes. How do you know their genotypes? Explain in two sentences below.

On the question below, make sure you look for parents of the same color that produce a child that is an opposite color and label that child as being recessive before answering the question.
