Want to know:
Mendel crossed true breeding yellow-seeded and green-seeded pea plants and then allowed the offspring to self-pollinate to produce an F2 generation. The results were as follows: 6,022 yellow and 2,001 green (8,023 total). Which of the following statements correctly describes the relationship of the allele for green seeds to the allele for yellow seeds?a. The two alleles exhibit incomplete dominance.b. The two alleles are codominant.c. The green allele is recessive to the yellow allele.d. The green allele is dominant to the yellow allele.

- One of the keys to success for Mendel was his selection of pea plants. Explain how using pea plants allowed Mendel to control mating; that is how did this approach let Mendel be positive about the exact characteristics of each parent?
- Use the figure below, which is from Figure 15.10. It shows the results of a cross between a fruit fly that is heterozygous for a gray body with normal wings, and a fruit fly that has a black body with vestigial wings. Because these genes are linked, the results are not what might have been predicted. Show the phenotypes and number of each type of offspring. Indicate which offspring are there combinants and which are the parental type. Finally, calculate the map distance between the two genes. Show all your work here.
