1. In certain flowers, genes that have incomplete dominance inherit color.

In such flowers, a cross

between homozygous red and a homozygous white will always result in a pink flower. A cross is made
between two pink flowers. What is the predicted phenotype ratio of the colors red, pink and white
appearing in the offspring?

2. A heterozygous round seeded plant is crossed with a homozygous round seeded plant (RR). What
percentage of the offspring will be homozygous? Show the cross.

3. A homozygous round seeded plant is crossed with a homozygous wrinkled seeded plant. What are the
genotypes of the parents? __________ x __________

4. What percentage of the offspring will also be homozygous? _______ what is the genotype of all of the
offspring? ______

In shorthorn cattle, when a red bull (RR) is crossed with a white cow (WW), all the offspring are roan
(RW).

5. Cross a roan bull and a roan cow. What phenotypic and genotypic ratios would you get?

6. What phenotypes would you expect from a cross between a red bull and a white cow?
In humans, straight hair (SS) and curly hair (CC) are co-dominant traits that result in hybrids that have
wavy hair (SC). Cross a curly hair female with a wavy haired male.

7. What are the chances of having a curly haired child?

8. What are the chances of having a straight hair child?

9. What are the chances of having a wavy hair child?
