THREE RULES FOR ONE-TRAIT CROSSES:
1) If both parents are homozygous for the same form of a trait, all offspring will be identical to the
parents.
2) Any cross in which at least one parent is homozygous dominant, will form offspring with the dominant
phenotype.
3) Any cross in which both parents have at least one recessive allele, will have some offspring that are
homozygous recessive.
It isnt always necessary to use FOIL or a Punnett Square. If you use the three rules of Monohybrid Crosses you can immediately answer the following questions. If you dont believe it, use a Punnett Square or the FOIL method to check your work.

In squash, white fruit color is dominant to yellow fruit color. If a cross between a white-fruited plant and a yellow-fruited plant yielded 43 white and 39 yellow offspring, what is the white parents genotype? Show your work.

Chromosome #15 contains a gene which normally codes for an enzyme that breaks down lipids. Without this enzyme, an individual develops Tay-Sachs disease. The disease is characterized by lipid buildup in the brain, severe disability and death by age four. The allele for the normal protein (P) is dominant while the allele for Tay-Sachs (p) is recessive. Determine the chances that a baby born from a homozygous dominant male and a heterozygous female might be born with Tay-Sachs disease. Show your work.
What are the chances that a child from these parents will be born with the disease?

Codominance: Shorthorn cattle show one of three different hair colors: red, white or roan. Roan is a combination of red and white hairs. This inheritance is symbolized by the following alleles: CR (red), and CW (white). A farmer breeds two adult shorthorns and, over a period of several years, records the following offspring: 4 red cows and 4 roan colored cows. What were the probable genotypes of the parents? Show your work.
