Someone please help!! Suppose on Jupiter there exist creatures with three genes controlling hair color. The gene for green hair, HG, is co-dominant to the gene for purple hair, HP. The gene for
orange hair, h, is recessive. Assume that inheritance of traits on Jupiter occurs the same
way as on Earth. Label the following statements as TRUE or FALSE:
A. The offspring produced by parents having the genotypes HPHG and
HGHG will be 100% the same phenotype.
B. A creature with purple hair must be HPHP
.
C. A creature with orange hair must have the genotype hh.
D. All the offspring produced from two orange creatures are expected
to have orange hair.
E. All the offspring produced from two green creatures are expected
to have green hair.
F. A creature with the genotype HPHG would have purple hair.
G. If a green-haired parent and an orange-haired parent produce all
green-haired offspring, then the green-haired parent is probably heterozygous.
H. The phenotypic ratio among offspring produced by parents having
the genotypes HPh and HGh is 1:2:1.
I. This type of genetic pattern is called multiple alleles.
