In pea plants, purple flowers (A) are dominant over white (a). A plant with genotype AA is crossed with a plant with genotype Aa. What is the probability P that an offspring has purple flowers?
haemophilia is X-linked recessive (allele h). A carrier mother, XHXh, has children with an unaffected father, XHY. The mother's gametes run down the side. Click the cell for an unaffected son.

Tall (A) is dominant over short (a), and round seeds (B) over wrinkled (b). The genes are on different chromosomes. For the cross AaBb × AaBb, what is the probability P that an offspring is short, wrinkled seeds?
In a population of 1000 in Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium, 1 in 10000 show a recessive trait. How many individuals N are expected to be homozygous dominant?
Two AaBb parents are crossed. Gene A gives black fur (dominant) or white fur; gene B gives purple flowers (dominant) or white flowers. Click the one cell for an offspring that is shows both white fur and white flowers.
