4. Bozeman Video—Mendelian Genetics

14. Progeny—offspring
Purebred—homozygous (AA or aa)
Carrier—heterozygous (Aa)

20. TEST CROSS-involves breeding an unknown genotype with a homozygous recessive

22. If a purple and a white flower can only produce purple offspring, what is the genotype of the purple parent?

27. Example R= Round seeds Y= yellow seeds
R = wrinkled seeds y = green seeds
2 seeds are crossed both heterozygous for both traits. Predict the genotype and phenotype frequencies.

28. Phenotype Answer 9/16 = round yellow 3/16 = round green
3/16 = wrinkled yellow
1/16 = wrinkled green

30. Example
A red flower is crossed with a white flower. This type of flower shows incomplete dominance. Predict the phenotypic ratio of offspring.

42. Other examples:
Weight, height

43. ACTIVATOR:
What’s the probability of getting an offspring showing hetereozygous for all 3 traits? AaBBcc x aaBbCc
