EXPLAIN SHOW WORK PLEASE A recessive allele d of the dancer
EXPLAIN SHOW WORK PLEASE.
A recessive allele (d) of the dancer gene in mice affects the inner ear and results in mice with balance problems and an unusual gait. You learned in class that the A gene, which is on a different chromosome, has an allele, AY,that is dominant for yellow coat color and recessive lethal. You cross a pure-breeding line of dancer mice that have normal coats to a strain with normal gait and yellow coats. In the resulting F1 progeny, 1/2 have yellow coats and normal gaits and 1/2 have normal coats and normal gaits
What are the possible genotypes of the yellow-coated F1 progeny? Pick all that apply:
Select one or more:
a. ddAA
b. DdAA^Y
c. DD AA^Y
d. DdA^YA^Y
e. ddA^YA^Y
f. DDAA
g. DdAA
If you cross the yellow-coated F1 brothers and sisters, in the next generationwhat proportion of the progeny will have the dancer gait and yellow coats?
Select one:
a. 1/6
b. 1/16
c. 0
d. 9/16
e. 2/3
f. 1/12
g. 1/4
h. 3/16
