Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD An allele for tallness from tall parent and allele for shortness from the short parent Question #1... When Gregor Mendel crossed a tall plant with a short plant, the F1 plants inherited: An allele for tallness from each parent An allele from only the tall parent An allele for shortness from each parent. 50/50 A CD B

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Multiple alleles Question #2... Situations in which one allele for a gene is not completely dominant over another allele for that gene are called: Polygenic inheritance Incomplete dominance Multiple genes A CD B 50/50

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD 3 Question #3... If an organism’s diploid number is 24, it’s haploid number is A CD B 50/50

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Homologous chromosomes Question #4... Gametes have One allele for each gene Two sets of chromosomes Twice the number of genes found in chromosomes A CD B 50/50

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD mitosis Question #5... Gametes are produced by the process of Crossing over replication meiosis A CD B 50/50

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Diploid cells Question #6... Unlike mitosis, meiosis results in the formation of Body cells Haploid cells 2N daughter cells A CD B 50/50

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Two genetically identical cells Question #7... Unlike mitosis, meiosis results in the formation of Four genetically different cells Two genetically different cells Four genetically identical cells A CD B 50/50

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Genes on the same chromosome Question #8... Which of the following assort independently? Multiple allelesCodominant alleles chromosomes A CD B 50/50

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Incomplete dominance Question #9... A cross of a red cow (RR) and a white bull (WW) produces all roan offspring, this type of inheritance is known as Multiple alleles codominance Polygenic traits A CD B 50/50

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Polygenic traits Question #10... Variation in skin color is a result of codominanceMultiple alleles Incomplete dominance A CD B 50/50

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD The allele for shortnesss is dominant Question #11... In the P generation, a tall plant was crossed with a short plant, short plants reappeared in the F2 generation because Some of the F2 plants produced gametes that carried the allele for shortness They inherited an allele for shortness from one parent and an allele for tallness from the other parent The allele for tallness and the allele for shortness segregated when the F1 plants producec gametes A CD B 50/50

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD The allele for tall plants is recessive. Question #12... When Gregor Mendel crossed true breeding tall plants with true breeding short plants, all of the offspring were tall because They were true breeding, like their parents The allele for tall plants is dominant The allele for short plants is dominant A CD B 50/50

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Green peas if it does not also have a dominant allele for yellow peas Question #13... If a pea plant has a recessive allele for green peas, it will produce: Both green and yellow peas if it also has a dominant allele for yellow peas Yellow peas if it does not also have a dominant allele for green peas Green peas if it also has a dominant allele for yellow peas A CD B 50/50

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD The genotype of one of the parents Question #14... If you made a punnett square showing Gregor Mendel’s cross between true breeding tall plants and true breeding short plants, the square would show that the offspring had A phenotype that was different from both parents The genotype of both parents. A genotype that was different from that of both parents A CD B 50/50

Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Mendel’s F2 plants would have shown a different phenotype ratio for seed color and seed shape Question #15... If the gene for seed color and gene for seed shape in pea plants were linked, All of Mendel’s F1 plants would have produced wrinkled, green peas Mendel’s F1 plants would have shown a different phenotype ratio for seed color and seed shape All of Mendel’s P plants would have produced wrinkled, green peas. A CD B 50/50
