For each of the crosses given below, write the most probable genotype (or genotypes if more than one answer is possible) for the parents. It is important that you select a realistic symbol set and define each symbol below. Parental Phenotypes Phenotypes of Offspring Short Long Short Long Dark Dark Albino Albino (a) dark, short × dark, long 26 24 0 0 (b) albino, short × albino, short 0 0 102 33 (c) dark, short × albino, short 16 0 16 0 (d) dark, short × dark, short 175 67 61 21 Assume that for cross (d), you were interested in determining whether fur color follows a 3:1 ratio. Set up (but do not complete the calculations) a Chi-square test for these data [fur color in cross (d)].
