In humans, the gene for polydactyly (having extra fingers or toes) is dominant over the gene for normal number of digits. If parents who are both homozygous dominant for polydactyly have four children, how many of these children would most likely have extra fingers or toes? A. 0 B. 2 C. 3 D. 4 2. Which mutation in a fruit fly could be passed on to its offspring? A. a mutation in a cell of an eye that changes the color of the eye B. a mutation in a leg cell that causes the leg to be shorter C. a mutation in a sperm cell that changes the shape of the wing D. a mutation in a cell of the digestive tract that produces a different enzyme 3. The diagram below shows a normal gene sequence and three mutated sequences of a segment of DNA. Which row in the chart below correctly identifies the cause of each type of mutation? A. Row 1 B. Row 2 C. Row 3 D. Row 4 4. A cross between two plants that have pink flowers produced plants that have red, pink, or white flowers. Which is the most likely explanation for these results? A. Intermediate inheritance involved alleles that were not clearly dominant or recessive. B. Mutations occurred during gametogenesis. C. Crossing-over of white and red alleles occurred during meiosis. D. Nondisjunction of homologous pairs of chromosomes resulted in the production of abnormal offspring. 5. A scientist observes that a certain trait is determined by a single allele. An organism inherited one version of the trait from one parent and another version form the other parent. Both versions of the trait are expressed in the phenotype of the offspring. Which pattern of inheritance best classifies the observed trait? A. dominance C. co-dominance B. sex-linkage D. incomplete dominance 6. A mutation occurs at the midpoint of a gene, altering all amino acids encoded after the point of the mutation. Which mutation could have produced this change? A. deletion of two nucleotides C. insertion of six nucleotides B. deletion of three nucleotides D. insertion of twelve nucleotides Use the table below to answer question 7. Phenotype A B AB O Blood Types Genotype(s) IAIA or IAi IBIB or IBi IAIB ii 7. Blood type is inherited through multiple alleles, including IA, IB, and i. A child has type A blood. If the father has type AB blood, what are all the possible phenotypes of the mother? A. phenotypes O and A C. phenotypes A, B, AB B. phenotypes A or AB D. phenotypes O, A, B, AB 8. In a flowering plant species, red flower color is dominant over white flower color. What is the genotype of any red-flowering plant resulting from this species? A. red and white alleles present on one chromosome B. red and white alleles present on two chromosomes C. a red allele present on both homologous chromosomes D. a red allele present on at least one of two homologous chromosomes 9. A genetic mutation resulted in a change in the sequence of amino acids of a protein, but the function of the protein was not changed. Which statement best describes the genetic mutation? A. It was a silent mutation that caused a change in the DNA of the organism B. It was a silent mutation that caused a change in the phenotype of the organism C.

A cattle farmer genetically crosses a cow (female) with a white coat with a bull (male) with a red coat. The resulting calf (offspring) is roan, which means there are red and white hairs intermixed in the coat of the calf. The genes for coat color in cattle are co-dominant. A. Although a farm has cattle in all three colors, the farmer prefers roan cattle over white or red cattle. Use the Punnett square to show a cross that would produce only roan offspring. B. Explain how a roan calf results from one white- and one red-coated parent. In your explanation, use the letters to represent genes. Be sure to indicate what colors the letters represent. C. Predict the possible genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring produced from two roan cattle.
