Punnett Square Practice Worksheet

Punnett Square Practice Worksheet Name: 1) For each of the genotypes (AA, Aa or aa) below determine what the phenotype would be. Purple flowers are dominant to white flowers. PP PURPLE Pp PURPLE pp WHITE Hairy knuckles are dominant to non-hairy knuckles in humans. HH HAIRY Hh HAIRY hh NON HAIRY Bobtails in cats are recessive. Normal tails are dominant. TT NORMAL Tt NORMAL tt BOBTAILS Round seeds are dominant to wrinkled seeds in pea plants. RR ROUND Rr ROUND rr WRINKLED No-cleft chin is dominant. Cleft chin is recessive. CC NON CLEFT Cc NON CLEFT cc CLEFT 2) For each of the following write whether it is homozygous dominant, heterozygous or homozygous recessive. AA H. D. Ff HET. Aa HET. gg H. R GG H. D. Pp HET. Ii HET. tt H R TT H. D. Tt HET. aa H.R. Oo HET Use the following information for questions 3-5: In dogs, the gene for fur color has two alleles. The dominant allele (F) codes for grey fur and the recessive allele (f) codes for black fur. 3) The female dog is heterozygous. The male dog is homozygous recessive. Figure out the phenotypes and genotypes of their possible puppies by using a Punnett Square. F f FEMALE DOG = Ff MALE DOG = ff f Ff ff Ff ff f FF: Genotypes: 0 Ff: 50% ff: 50% Phenotypes: Black fur: 50% Grey fur:50% 4) The female dog has black fur. The male dog has black fur. Figure out the phenotypes and genotypes of their possible puppies by using a Punnett Square. f f f ff ff f ff ff Genotypes: FF: Ff: ff: 100% 0 0 FEMALE DOG = ff MALE DOG = ff Phenotypes: Black fur: 100% Grey fur:0 5) The female dog is heterozygous. The male dog is heterozygous. Figure out the phenotypes and genotypes of their possible puppies by using a Punnett Square. F f FEMALE DOG = Ff FF Ff MALE DOG = Ff F Ff ff f Genotypes: FF: Ff: ff: 25% 50% 25% Phenotypes: Black fur: 25% Grey fur:75% Use the following information for questions 6-8: In fruit flies, red eyes are dominant (E). White eyes are recessive (e). 6) If the female fly has white eyes and the male fly has homozygous dominant red eyes, what are the possible phenotypes and genotypes of their offspring? e e FEMALE FLY = ee MALE FLY = EE E E Genotypes: EE: Ee: ee: Ee Ee Ee Ee 0 100% 0 Phenotypes: Red Eyes: 100% White Eyes:0 7) If the female fly has EE and the male fly has EE, what are the possible phenotypes and genotypes of their offspring? E E E EE EE EE EE E Genotypes: EE: Ee: ee: Phenotypes: Red Eyes:100% 100% 0 0 White Eyes:0 8) If both flies are heterozygous, then what are the possible phenotypes and genotypes of their offspring? E FEMALE FLY = Ee e EE Ee Ee ee E MALE FLY = Ee e Genotypes: EE: Ee: ee: Phenotypes: Red Eyes: 75% 25% 50% 25% White Eyes:25% Use the following for questions 9-11: In dogs, there is an hereditary deafness caused by a recessive gene, “d.” A kennel owner has a male dog (Gilbert) that she wants to use for breeding purposes if possible. The dog can hear. 9) What are the two possible genotypes of Gilbert? DD, Dd 10) If the dog’s genotype is Dd, the owner does not wish to use him for breeding so that the deafness gene will not be passed on. This can be tested by breeding the dog to a deaf female (dd). Draw two Punnett squares to illustrate these two possible crosses. Dd X dd D d Dd dd Dd dd DD X dd D d Dd Dd D Dd Dd d d d 11) In each case, what percentage/how many of the offspring would be expected to be hearing? deaf? How could you tell the genotype of this male dog? Also, using Punnett square(s), show how two hearing dogs could produce deaf offspring. Dd X dd DD X dd Dd = 50% can hear Dd = 50% cannot hear Dd= 100% can hear Use the following for questions 12-13: Having a widow’s peak like dominant. Not having a widow’s peak, like Wentworth Miller is Rihanna, is recessive. 12) If Wentworth Miller is Aa, and he and Rihanna had children, what are the possible phenotypes and genotypes of their children? A a Aa aa Aa X aa a Aa = 50% widows’ peak Aa aa Aa = 50% without widow’s peak a 13) Look at the phenotypes of these two had children, could they have widow’s peak? Why or why not? Use a explain your answer. aa X aa a a a aa aa aa aa a 100% straight hairline Beyonce and Jay Z. If children with a Punnett Square to
