refers to the allele combination for a trait (Aa, BB, RW)
describes a genotype whose paired alleles are identical (aa, bb)
describes a trait whose expression requires only one allele
refers to a pattern of inheritance in which one trait is influenced by many genes
refers to the transcription and translation of genes into proteins

Multiple Choice
Which genotypes are possible from two heterozygous parents?
100% heterozygous
100% homozygous dominant
50% homozygous dominant, 50% homozygous recessive
25% homozygous dominant, 50% heterozygous, and 25% homozygous recessive
4
Multiple Choice
How can two organisms have the same phenotype but different genotypes?
One organism is heterozygous, and the other organism is hybrid.
One organism is heterozygous, and the other organism is homozygous recessive.
One organism is homozygous dominant, and the other organism is homozygous recessive.
One organism is homozygous dominant, and the other organism is heterozygous.
5
Create a punnett square
A dog that is homozygous recessive for a dwarf allele (dd) is mated with a dog that is homozygous dominant (DD-normal size). What will be the phenotype of the offspring?
6
Hotspot
Which shows the correct Punnett square for the dog breeding scenario?
7
Multiple Choice
What will be the phenotype of the offspring?
100% dominant
100% recessive
50% dominant and 50% recessive
8
Read the scenario:
In mice, black fur is dominant over white fur. A mouse with black fur is mated with a mouse with white fur. They produce 11 offspring, 10 of which have black fur and 1 of which has white fur. Task: Create a Punnett square that shows how this is possible.
9
Hotspot
Which of these crosses DOES NOT allow for the possibility of white offspring?
10
Hotspot
Which of these crosses DOES allow for the possibility of white offspring?
11
Multiple Choice
So if the black mouse and white mouse had at least one white offspring, which genotype is accurate for the black parent mouse?
bb
BB
Bb

Match
Match the following...
incomplete dominance
codominance
multiple allele traits
sex-linked traits
autosomal traits
when 3 phenotypes are possible, and the heterozygote is blended
when 3 phenotypes are possible, and the heterozygote is spotted
when more than two alleles exist for a trait
when the genes for a trait are inherited on the X or Y chromosome
when the genes for a trait are inherited on chromosome pairs 1-22
when 3 phenotypes are possible, and the heterozygote is blended
when 3 phenotypes are possible, and the heterozygote is spotted
when more than two alleles exist for a trait
when the genes for a trait are inherited on the X or Y chromosome
when the genes for a trait are inherited on chromosome pairs 1-22
14
Multiple Choice
If snapdragons can be red, white, or pink, in which scenario is a breeder most likely to get white-flowered offspring?
two pink parents
one red parent and one white parent
two white parents
two red parents
15
Drag and Drop
16
There are 4 phenotypes, which means this is a multiple allele trait...
17
Multiple Select
Select the genotypes that would produce a type A phenotype:
IAIA
IAi
IAIB
ii
18
Hotspot
Select the genotypes that contain the "i" allele:
19
Multiple Choice
What percentage of offspring from a cross between a homozygous Type A parent with a heterozygous Type A parent is expected to contain the i allele?
0%
25%
50%
100%
20
Multiple Choice
What type of traits are colorblindness and hemophilia?
autosomal dominant
autosomal recessive
sex-linked
polygenic
21
Multiple Choice
A man, who has red-green colorblindness, and his wife, who is a carrier for colorblindness, have a colorblind son. What is the probability that their next son will also be colorblind?
0%
25%
50%
100%
22
23
Hotspot
Choose the genotype that would allow a couple of have one normal son and one son with hemophilia:
24
Multiple Choice
What is suggested by the fact that only males are affected in this pedigree?
it's an autosomal trait
it's a sex-linked trait
it's fake news
25
Multiple Choice
A man with hemophilia marries an unaffected woman. What percentage of their children will have the disease?
0%
50%
100%
26
Multiple Select
Heart disease and cancer have a genetic basis, meaning some are more likely to develop these conditions than others. There's also an environmental influence. Select the healthy habits that would help to prevent diseases like these:
regular exercise
using sunscreen
avoiding processed foods
eliminating phenylalanine from the diet
27
Multiple Choice
Diagnose the patient with respect to sex and chromosome abnormalities:
female with down's syndrome
male with down's syndrome
female with Turner's syndrome
male with Klinefelter's syndrome
