Hint: Figure out the Ratios of the F2 Progeny

<p> 1) A true-breeding purple snapdragon was crossed to a true-breeding white snapdragon. The F1 progeny were white. When F1 x F1 matings were made, the following F2 progeny were observed:</p><p>White 240 Purple 61 Spotted Purple 19</p><p>Total: 320</p><p>Hint: Figure out the ratios of the F2 progeny.</p><p>(a) Using your own clearly defined genetic symbols, give the appropriate parental, F1, and F2 genotypes in order to explain the above results. Explain clearly the mechanism by which the results above were obtained.

Suppose that pigmentation in rabbits is controlled by two genes (E and H). Each gene exhibits complete dominance, and the relationship between genotypes and phenotypes are listed below:</p><p>Genotype Phenotype E/-;H/- albino e/e;H/- brown E/-;h/h albino e/e;h/h albino</p><p>(a) Two brown parents produce an albino baby rabbit. What are the genotypes of each of the parents and of the baby rabbit? Parents: Baby rabbit: (b) What phenotypic ratio would be expected among the progeny of an intercross between dihybrid rabbits?
