Question

Part A Mice have a set of multiple alleles of a gene for coat color. Four of those alleles are as follows: C = full color (wild) c^ch = chinchilla c^d = dilution c = albino Given that the gene locus is not sex-linked and that each allele is dominant to those lower in the list, diagram the crosses indicated below and give the phenotypic ratios expected from each. (a) wild (heterozygous for dilution) X chinchilla (heterozygous for albino) (b) chinchilla (heterozygous for albino) X albino Essay answers are limited to about 500 words (3800 characters maximum, including spaces). 3800 Character(s) remaining Submit My Answers Give Up

Explanation / Answer

a. Wild : Chinchilla : Dilution = 2 : 1 : 1
