Complete all ten scenarios and record your results in Table 1.

 

 

 

When you record a ratio, whether it is genotypic or phenotypic ratio, always record the

most dominant characteristic first, followed by the recessive.

 

 

 

Offspring Genotypes

 

Genotypic Ratio

 

Phenotypic Ratio*

 

1 GG, 2 Gg, and 1 gg

 

1 GG : 2 Gg : 1 gg

 

3:1

 

2 GG and 2 Gg

 

2 GG : 2 gg

 

1:1

 

4 gg

 

4 gg

 

0:4

 

 

 

* With monohybrid standard dominance traits there are only 2 possible phenotypes. The

dominant and the recessive. You always report the dominant phenotype first followed by

the recessive phenotype.
