    The text describes how to set up and solve genetic crosses between two traits using a Punnett square. Dihybrid crosses involve tracking the inheritance of two traits simultaneously.

    A dihybrid cross involves tracking the inheritance of two traits, like flower color and plant height. It allows you to determine all the possible genotype and phenotype combinations in the offspring.

    To set up a dihybrid cross: 1) Identify the parental genotypes. 2) Determine the possible gametes from each parent. 3) Use a Punnett square to combine the gametes and determine the offspring genotypes. 4) Calculate the expected phenotypic ratios.

    U N I T 3 : Meiosis and Mendel

    Instructions: For each problem, complete a dihybrid cross and calculate the
    ratios of each genotype.

    Ex) A tall green pea plant (TTGG) is crossed with a short white pea plant (ttgg).

    TT or Tt = tall tt = short GG or Gg = green gg = white

    TG TG TG TG

    tg TtGg TtGg TtGg TtGg

    tg TtGg TtGg TtGg TtGg

    tg TtGg TtGg TtGg TtGg

    tg TtGg TtGg TtGg TtGg

    16 Tall/Green : 0 Tall/White : 0 Short/Green : 0 Short/ White

    1) A tall green pea plant (TTGg) is crossed with a tall green pea plant (TtGg)

    ___________ X ___________

    ____ Tall/Green : ____ Tall/White : ____ Short/Green : ____ Short/ White

    2) A tall green pea plant (TtGg) is crossed with a short white pea plant (ttgg).

    ___________ X ___________

    ____ Tall/Green : ____ Tall/white : ____ short/Green : ____ short/ white

    3) A homozygous tall, homozygous green plant is crossed with a homozygous short white plant.

    ___________ X ___________

    5. In mammoths, assume that spotted skin (S) is dominant over non-spotted skin (s) and that
    wooly hair (W) is dominant over non-wooly hair (w). Cross a mating between a heterozygous
    spotted, non-wooly mammoth with a heterozygous wooly-haired, non-spotted mammoth. Give
    genotypic and phenotypic ratios of offspring.

    Genotypic:

    Phenotypic:

    6. In horses, black is dependent upon a dominant gene, B, and chestnut upon its recessive
    allele, b. The trotting gait is due to a dominant gene, T, the pacing gait to its recessive allele, t. If
    a homozygous black pacer is mated to a homozygous chestnut trotter, what will be the
    appearance of the F1 generation?

    7. In mice, the ability to run normally is a dominant trait. Mice with this trait are called running
    mice (R). The recessive trait causes mice to run in circles only. Mice with this trait are called
    waltzing mice (r). Hair color is also inherited in mice. Black hair (B) is dominant over brown hair
    (b). For each of the following problems, determine the parent genotypes, determine possible
    gametes then use a dihybrid cross to solve.

    a. Cross a heterozygous running, heterozygous black mouse with a homozygous


    running,
    homozygous black mouse

    Parental genotypes ______________


    Possible gametes _____ _____ _____ _____
    Offspring phenotypic ratio ________________

    b. Cross a homozygous running, homozygous black mouse with a heterozygous


    running, brown mouse

    Parental genotypes ______________


    Possible gametes _____ _____ _____ _____
    Offspring phenotypic ratio ________________

    c. Cross a waltzing brown mouse with a waltzing brown mouse


    Parental genotypes ______________
    Possible gametes _____ _____ _____ _____
    Offspring phenotypic ratio ________________

    6. Set up a dihybrid cross using the following information:


    Dominate allele for tall plants = D
    Recessive allele for dwarf plants = d
    Dominate allele for purple flowers = W
    Recessive allele for white flowers = w
    Cross a homozygous dominate parent (DDWW) with a homozygous recessive parent (ddww)

    a. What is the probability of producing tall plants with


    purple flowers?
    Possible genotype(s)?

    b. What is the probability of producing dwarf plants


    with white flowers?
    Possible genotype(s)?

    c. What is the probability of producing tall plants with


    white flowers?
    Possible genotype(s)?

    d. What is the probability of producing dwarf plants


    with purple flowers?

    Possible genotype(s)?
