Question: [QUESTION]What is the expected ratio of offspring with a tall stem to offspring with a short stem? Choose the most likely ratio.
Solution: To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with a tall stem or a short stem, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the stem height trait. The question tells you that the h allele, which is for a short stem, is recessive to the H allele, which is for a tall stem.
A tall stem is the dominant allele's version of the stem height trait. A pea plant with the dominant version of the stem height trait must have at least one dominant allele for the stem height gene. So, offspring with a tall stem must have the genotype HH or Hh.
All 4 boxes in the Punnett square have the genotype HH or Hh.
A short stem is the recessive allele's version of the stem height trait. A pea plant with the recessive version of the stem height trait must have only recessive alleles for the stem height gene. So, offspring with a short stem must have the genotype hh.
There are 0 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype hh.
So, the expected ratio of offspring with a tall stem to offspring with a short stem is 4:0. This means that, based on the Punnett square, this cross will always produce offspring with a tall stem. This cross is expected to never produce offspring with a short stem. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Question: [QUESTION]What is the expected ratio of offspring with a dwarf body to offspring with a normal-sized body? Choose the most likely ratio.
Solution: To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with a dwarf body or a normal-sized body, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the body size trait. The question tells you that the b allele, which is for a dwarf body, is recessive to the B allele, which is for a normal-sized body.
A dwarf body is the recessive allele's version of the body size trait. A rat with the recessive version of the body size trait must have only recessive alleles for the body size gene. So, offspring with a dwarf body must have the genotype bb.
There are 2 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype bb. These boxes are highlighted below.
A normal-sized body is the dominant allele's version of the body size trait. A rat with the dominant version of the body size trait must have at least one dominant allele for the body size gene. So, offspring with a normal-sized body must have the genotype BB or Bb.
There are 2 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype BB or Bb. These boxes are highlighted below.
So, the expected ratio of offspring with a dwarf body to offspring with a normal-sized body is 2:2. This means that, on average, this cross will produce 2 offspring with a dwarf body for every 2 offspring with a normal-sized body. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
