Snap dragons exhibit  incomplete dominance for the trait of flower color, with red flowers (R) being dominant to white flowers (r).    If two parents with the genotypes Rr & rr are crossed, what phenotypes will be seen in the offspring and in what ratios?

You have discovered a new gene with two alleles that follow simple dominance rules. Which of the following options would be appropriate letters to assign to these alleles?

DNA Replication is _________ which means that each daughter strand contains 1/2 of the original parent strand.

For the trait pod shape, pea plants are either inflated (Q), or constricted (q).  Inflated is the dominant form. In the P generation, A homozygous dominant pea plant is crossed  with a plant possessing the constricted phenotype.   If two individuals from the F1 generation are bred together, What percentage of the F2  generation would you expect to have the constricted phenotype?

What does the “P” in P generation stand for?

Fur color in tribbles is controlled by a single gene which follows simple mendelian rules for genetics. Two homozygous tribbles are bred together: 1 white and 1 black. All of the offspring have black fur. Which trait is the dominant trait?
