GENETICS

Number One

Write down a genotype that would display the heterozygous trait.

Number Two

In humans, brown eyes (B) are dominant over blue (b)*. A browneyed man marries a blue-eyed woman and they have three children, two of whom are brown-eyed and one of whom is blue-eyed. Draw the

Punnett square that illustrates this marriage

Number Three

Who is the father of genetics?

What did he use to do his experiments?

Number Four

Looking at the punnet square below, write the PHENOTYPIC ratio:

Number Five

The different forms of a gene are called:

A. Allele

B. Characters

C. Chromosomes

D. Phenotype

Number Six

If an organism has a diploid number of 20, what would their haploid number be?

Number Seven

The gene for tallness (T) is dominant over the gene for shortness (t) in pea plants. A homozygous dominant pea plant is crossed with a heterozygous pea plant, and 200 seeds are produced.

Approximately how many of these seeds can be expected to produce plants that are homozygous dominant?

Number Eight

Mitosis results in two

____________ cells

Meiosis results in four
