In a hypothetical breed of dogs, coat color is controlled by two genes. there are six different coat colors in this breed: black, brown, cream, gray, silver, and tan. consider the following crosses. cross 1: black females from a lineage of all black dogs are crossed with brown males from a lineage of all brown dogs. f1 males and females are all black. when f1 are intercrossed, f2 males and females are black or brown. cross 2: black females from a lineage of all black dogs are crossed with tan males from a lineage where all males are tan and all females are cream. f1 males are black, f1 females are gray. when f1 are intercrossed, f2 males and females are black, brown, gray, or tan. cross 3: silver females from a lineage where all females are silver and all males are gray are crossed with brown males from a lineage of all brown dogs. f1 males and females are all gray. when f1 are intercrossed, f2 males are black, brown, gray, or tan, f2 females are cream, gray, silver, or tan. select the correct statements regarding the mode of inheritance of the coat color genes. a) both genes are x-linked. b) both genes are autosomal. c) one of the genes modifies the expression of the other gene. d) each gene has an additive effect on the intensity of coat color. e) each gene independently specifies three colors. f) one of the genes is autosomal, and the other is x-linked.

The model illustrates a process by which a substance is taken up by a cell. which statements describe the process? a. the model shows the process of endocytosis. b. the process shown in the model requires energy from the cell. c. the cell membrane in the model remains intact throughout the process. d. the model shows the process of facilitated diffusion.

Red–green color blindness is an x-linked recessive trait in humans. polydactyly (extra fingers and toes) is an autosomal dominant trait. martha has normal fingers and toes and normal color vision. her mother is normal in all respects, but her father is color blind and polydactylous. bill is color blind and polydactylous. his mother has normal color vision and normal fingers and toes. if bill and martha marry, what proportions of children with specific phenotypes would they be expected to produce? the answers only include the proportions of some of the possible phenotypes; other phenotypes are also expected to occur but are not included.
