Genetics Quiz: Punnett Squares

1.) A homozygous normal winged fly is crossed with a homozygous vestigial winged fly. Normal
wings are dominant to vestigial wings.

          a.) Identify each parental genotype.
          b.) Identify each parental phenotype.
          c.) Do a cross to determine the genotype and phenotype ratios for the offspring.

2.) Two heterozygous parents are crossed.
         a.) Identify each parental genotype.
         b.) Identify each parental phenotype.
         c.) Do a cross to determine the genotype and phenotype ratios for the offspring.

          b.) Identify each parental phenotype.
          c.) Do a cross to determine the genotype and phenotype ratios for the offspring.

2.) Two heterozygous flies are crossed.
         a.) Identify each parental genotype.
         b.) Identify each parental phenotype.

Genetics Quiz: Punnett Squares

1.) In humans, brown eyes are dominant over blue. A brown-eyed man marries a blue-eyed woman and they have
three children, two of whom are brown-eyed and one of whom is blue-eyed.

         a.) Using what you know about the offspring, identify each parental genotype.
         b.) Identify each parental phenotype.
         c.) Do a cross that shows the possibilities of these children.

2.) A homozygous dominant man and a homozygous recessive woman want to know
the color of their childrens' eyes.

         a.) Identify each parental genotype.
         b.) Identify each parental phenotype.
         c.) Do a cross to determine the genotype and phenotype ratios for the offspring.
Genetics Punnett Square Quiz

1.) Deafness is a recessive disorder in certain breeds of dogs. A deaf male and a hearing female are crossed, and
their litter contains puppies that are both hearing and deaf.

           a.) Identify each parental genotype.
           b.) Identify each parental phenotype.
           c.) Do a cross to determine the genotype and phenotype ratios for the offspring.

2.) Two hearing dogs are mated. Their litter of puppies contains hearing to deaf dogs in a 3:1 ratio.

a.) Identify each parental genotype.
b.) Identify each parental phenotype.
c.) Do a cross to determine the genotype ratios for these offspring. As part of your answer, circle the genotype that
creates a deaf dog.
