Dihybrid Cross Notes. 1. Determine dominant and recessive traits. Carefully read the problem. 2. Assign letters for the trait. B = black b = white H = Hairy h = no hair. 3. Determine genotype for parents . *Parents must have 4 alleles Heterozygous, black, hairless male = Bbhh

1. Determine dominant and recessive traits Carefully read the problem
2. Assign letters for the trait B = black b = white H = Hairy h = no hair
3. Determine genotype for parents *Parents must have 4 alleles Heterozygous, black, hairless male = Bbhh White heterozygous hairy female = bbHh
5. Put parent gamete combinations on box Bbhh gametes: Bh, Bh, bh, bh bbHh gametes: bH, bh, bH, bh Bh Bh bh bh bH bh bH bh
Extra tips • When determining the probability of events • If the problem states “and” then multiply the chances for each • Chance of heads and heads = ½ x ½ = ¼ or 25% • If the problem states “or” then add the chances for each • Chance of heads or tails = ½ + ½ = 1 or 100% As you work the problems write in your own extra tips
