- Using Punnett Squares, show Mendel’s F1 crosses that led to the outcomes on which he based his findings. BE SURE to include any genotype and phenotype ratios that were reported from the experiments. Use the appropriate cases of the letters ‘P or p’ for pea flower color (purple is dominant to white) and ‘T or t’ for plant height (tall is dominant to dwarf) for the appropriate appropriate alleles in your work. You do NOT have to fill in the squares, simply set up the arrangements of gametes and the square. please include the ratios

In need of assistance. Please help answer the following.

1) Pure-breeding yellow guinea pigs crossedwith pure-breeding white guinea pigs produce only cream-coloredoffspring. This pattern indicates incomplete dominance. Rough hairis found to be dominant to smooth hair. Give the F1 and F2genotypic and phenotypic ratios of a cross of a smooth white guineapig with a homozygous rough yellow guinea pig.

2) A breeder of cattle has a herd of white cowsand a roan bull. Hair color in this breed is controlled by anincomplete dominant gene. The two homozygous forms are either redor white, and the heterozygous is roan. Answer the followingquestions please

What color calves are expected and in whatproportion?

Outline a procedure to develop an all-redherd.

3) In horses, black coat color is influenced bythe dominant allele (B), and chestnut coat color is influenced bythe recessive allele (b). Trotting gait is due to a dominant gene(T), pacing gait to the recessive allele (t). If a homozygous blacktrotter is crossed with a chestnut pacer:
