1. In man, assume that spotted skin (S) is dominant over non-spotted skin (s) and that wooly
hair (W) is dominant over non-wooly hair (w). Cross a marriage between a heterozygous
spotted, non-wooly man with a heterozygous wooly-haired, non-spotted woman. Give genotypic
and phenotypic ratios of offspring.
2. In horses, black is dependent upon a dominant gene, B, and chestnut upon its recessive
allele, b. The trotting gait is due to a dominant gene, T, the pacing gait to its recessive allele, t. If
a homozygous black pacer is mated to a homozygous chestnut trotter, what will be the
appearance of the F1 generation?

3. In summer squash, white fruit color (W) is dominant over yellow fruit color (w) and disk-shaped fruit
(D) is dominant over sphere-shaped fruit (d).. If a squash plant true-breeding for white, disk-shaped fruit
is crossed with a plant true-breeding for yellow, sphere-shaped fruit,
5. In mice, the ability to run normally is a dominant trait. Mice with this trait are called running
mice (R). The recessive trait causes mice to run in circles only. Mice with this trait are called
waltzing mice (r). Hair color is also inherited in mice. Black hair (B) is dominant over brown hair
(b).For each of the following problems, determine the parent genotypes, determine possible
gametes then construct a Punnet square to solve.

mouse
