Understanding the vocabulary in the questions is extremely important. I've noticed that once students get the square set up they do just fine, it's that interpretation of the words in the question that they find most challenging. So LEARN THE VOCAB (homozygous, heterozygous, genotype, phenotype, cross, etc.) QUESTION – What is the difference between genotype and phenotype? Let's say that in seals, the gene for the length of the whiskers has two alleles. The dominant allele (W) codes long whiskers & the recessive allele (w) codes for short whiskers. A) What percentage of offspring would be expected to have short whiskers from the cross of two long-whiskered seals, one that is homozygous dominant and one that is heterozygous? B) If one parent seal is homozygous long-whiskered and the other is shortwhiskered, what percent of offspring would have short whiskers? In purple people eaters, onehorn is dominant and no horns is recessive. Draw a Punnet Square showing the cross of a purple people eater that is heterozygous for horns with a purple people eater that does not have horns. Summarize the genotypes & phenotypes of the possible offspring. In rabbits, three toes are dominant to two toes. What are the genotypes / phenotypes of the parents and their offspring. The parents are homozygous recessive and homozygous dominant. In rabbits, red eyes are dominant to black eyes. What is the chance that a parent who has homozygous alleles for red eyes and a parent that has heterozygous alleles for eye color will have offspring with black eyes?
