Genetics Complete the questions below. Be sure to read the entire question. This should be your own work—not someone else’s. 1. In gerbils, spotted pattern is dominant over non-spotted pattern. If a spotted male gerbil who is heterozygous is crossed with a non-spotted female gerbil, will any of their offspring have spots? If so, what percent? [Square = 2 pts, % = 1 pt] 2. In humans, hemophilia is a sex-linked trait carried on the X chromosome. A man with hemophilia marries a woman without hemophilia. Could any of their children have the disorder? [Hint: This will require TWO punnett squares; Squares = 4 pts, Percent Chances = 2 pts] 3. Change the following RNA strand into amino acids using the chart from your notes.

In gerbils, the spotted pattern is dominant over non-spotted pattern. If a spotted male gerbil who
is heterozygous is crossed with a non-spotted female gerbil, will any of their offspring have
spots? If so, what percent? [Square = 2 pts, % = 1 pt]
Solution
Spotted pattern causes the markings on the gerbil to be white. The gene is written as Sp.
On the other hand, a gerbil that is non-spotted will be represented by ++. Sp is dominant
implying that it requires just one gene Sp to make the gerbil spotted. Therefore, the offspring ...
