Continue clicking through to learn about pigeons the breeds and their heritable traits Listen carefully to the segment on the sex chromosomes for the pigeon 18 What is the genotype of a male pigeon What is the genotype of a female pigeon LEVEL ONE Your first step is to breed a female pigeon Select your pigeon parents first then select the gametes of the correct allele type and click hatch 19 Which allele did you choose from the father Which allele from the mother What is the resulting genotype of the female pigeon you made You will now follow the same steps to breed a male pigeon After you have hatched a male pigeon press continue LEVEL 2 This level will focus on inherited traits Looking at the example birds that a crest and no crest 20 By looking at the genotypes and phenotypes of crested vs non crested pigeons which trait is the dominant trait Which trait is recessive How do you know Explain LEVEL 3 You will now make a male with no crest Select your parents Then select the gametes Z or W and also select the allele of the crest type you want for your resulting gametes by clicking on the phenotype of the crest type Select hatch to see if you were correct 21 Are sex and crest inherited separately or are they linked Explain in your own words Continue to make a male with a crest LEVEL 5 You will now make a female with a crest This problem will take two generations Make and hatch your first generation recording each step below In your answers let s call the allele for no crest C and the allele for crest c 22 What were the genotypes for the type of crest of your parent generation you chose Father genotype Mother genotype 23 What were the phenotypes of the crest of your parent generation Father genotype Mother genotype 24 What are the possible genotypes of the progeny F1 generation of the parents listed above Make a Punnett square using the grid below to work out your answer and copy and paste into your answers document What are the possible phenotypes Monohybrid Cross of Parent Generation
