#1:Egyptian Mau cats are genetically crossed for certain lengths of fur. A breeder knows that short hair is dominant over long hair. If 75% of the kittens are born with short hair, what are the parents’ most likely genotypes? • A: the male is a heterozygous, short-haired cat, and the female a homozygous short-haired cat. • B: the male is a homozygous, long-haired cat, and the female is a heterozygous, short-haired cat. • C: the male is a homozygous, short-haired cat, and the female is a heterozygous, short-haired cat. • D: the male is a heterozygous, short-haired cat, and the female is a heterozygous, short-haired cat.
#2:Brown eye color is dominant to blue eye color. A heterozygous brown eyed father and a blue eyed mother have four children. Which statement best describes the children’s predicted phenotypes? • A: 50% of children will have brown eyes, and 50% will have blue. • B: 75% of the children will have brown eyes and 25% will have blue. • C: 75% of the children will have blue eyes and 25% will have brown. • D: 100% of the children will have brown eyes.

#14:What is a Phenotype? • A: The appearance of an organism resulting from the interaction of the genotype and the environment. • B: The genetic makeup of an organism that is determined by a trait, set of traits, or an entire complex of traits. • C: Having dissimilar pairs of genes for any given hereditary characteristic. • D: Having identical pairs of genes for any given pair of hereditary characteristics.
#15:What is the Law of Independent Assortment? • A: It states that for a characteristic, two phenotypes can be present. • B: It states that the genes for two characteristics are inherited independently. • C: It states that genes are assorted independently. • D: It states that out of a pair of characteristics, only one can be represented in a reproductive cell.
