DiHybrid Worksheet

The document provides worksheets and practice problems for students to work through dihybrid crosses in rabbits and other organisms. Students are asked to determine genotypes and phenotypes based on given genetic crosses as well as set up and solve Punnett squares. The problems address scenarios such as dominant and recessive traits for hair color and eye color in rabbits as well as genetic crosses in other species like man, horses, and summer squash.

Dihybrid Cross Worksheet

In rabbits, gray hair is dominant to white hair. Also in rabbits, black eyes are dominant to red eyes. These letters
represent the genotypes of the rabbits:

1. What are the phenotypes (descriptions) of rabbits that have the following genotypes?

Ggbb ____________________ ggBB ________________________

ggbb ____________________ GgBb _________________________

2. A male rabbit with the genotype GGbb is crossed with a female rabbit with the genotype ggBb the square is set up
below. Fill it out and determine the phenotypes and proportions in the offspring.

How many out of 16 have gray fur and


black eyes? ________

How many out of 16 have gray furand red


eyes? ________

How many out of 16 have white fur and


black eyes? ________

How many out of 16 have white fur and


red eyes________

3. A male rabbit with the genotype GgBb is crossed with a female rabbit with the genotype GgBb The
square is set up below. Fill it out and determine the phenotypes and proportions of offspring

How many out of 16 have gray fur and


black eyes? ________

How many out of 16 have gray fur and red


eyes? ________

How many out of 16 have white fur and


black eyes? ________

How many out of 16 have white fur and


red eyes? ________
4. Show the cross between a ggBb and a GGBb. You'll have to set this one up yourself:

Punnett Square:
DiHybrid Practice Problems

1. In man, assume that spotted skin (S) is dominant over non-spotted skin (s) and
that wooly hair (W) is dominant over non-wooly hair (w). Cross a marriage between a
heterozygous spotted, non-wooly man with a heterozygous wooly-haired, non-spotted
woman. Give genotypic and phenotypic ratios of offspring.

2. In horses, black is dependent upon a dominant gene, B, and chestnut upon its
recessive allele, b. The trotting gait is due to a dominant gene, T, the pacing gait to its
recessive allele, t. If a homozygous black pacer is mated to a homozygous chestnut
trotter, what will be the appearance of the F 1 generation?

3. In summer squash, white fruit color (W) is dominant over yellow fruit color (w) and disk-‐ shaped
fruit (D) is dominant over sphere-‐shaped fruit (d).. If a squash plant true-‐breeding for white, disk-‐
sshaped fruit is crossed with a plant true-‐breeding for yellow, sphere-‐shaped fruit,
