10 Questions2 MinutesCreated by CrossingGenes254
Two true breeding parents are crossed similar to Mendel's P generation. A tall plant is crossed with a short plant. What is the expected outcome for the F1 generation?
All tall
All short
All medium height
Half tall, half short
If the cross from #1 is continued, what would be the expected outcome in the F2 generation?
3 tall, 1 short
All short
All tall
Half tall, half short
If a plant that has round seeds has a parent that has wrinkled seeds, what is its genotype? (Assume that round is dominant.)
RR
Rr
Rr
RrWw
This principle states that alleles separate during gamete formation:
Principle of multiple alleles
Principle of dominance and recessiveness
Principle of independent assortment
Principle of segregation
If you crossed two heterozygous plants, how many of the offspring will also be heterozygous?
All
Half
3/4
1/4
A plant that has purple flowers is crossed with one that has white flowers. The offspring were half white and half purple. What were the genotypes of the parents?
Pp x pp
Pp x Pp
PP x pp
PP x WW
A dihybrid cross (AaBb x AaBb) will result in what offspring ratio?
4:4:2:2
1:3:1
3:1
9:3:3:1
Phenotype refers to an organism's:
Genetic code
Physical appearance
Ratio
Parents
In each case where Mendel crossed true breeding plants as parents, the offspring displayed only one of the two traits seen in the parents. This observation supports which principle of genetics?
Segregation
Independent assortment
Dominance and recessiveness
Allele frequency
Which of the following outcomes would you expect from the following cross: tall, round (TTRR) x short, wrinkled (ttrr)
All offspring tall and round
All offspring short and wrinkled
Half tall, round; half short wrinkled
