Are double wings the result of a somatic mutation or a germline mutation? A: germline Q: 3. Why do you think so? A: germline mutation is inheritable and detectable within the genes of the offspring and parents. Q: 4. Use the Chromosome tool to determine the genotype(s) of dragons that have double wings. A: wwd Q: 5. Use the Chromosome tool to determine the genotype(s) of dragons that have no wings. A: Ww Q: 6. Use the Chromosome tool to determine the genotype(s) of dragons that have single wings.

What does that suggest to you about whether blue fire is a germline or somatic mutation? A: I think that it's a somatic mutation, becuase it it were to be germline then the F1 generation of the offsprings would've inheritted the trait of breathing blue fire. Q: 14. How would you test that idea? A: I would test the idea by crossing two other dragons who both inherit the trait"fb". Q: 15. Breathing blue fire results from a mutation in the Fire gene in which kind of cell? A: Q: 16. Why do you think so? A: Q: 13.

Why do you think so? A: Breathing fire in general is recessive so I don't think that the color is going to change that. Q: 25. What is the probability of Damian and Dominique having a female dragon that breathes blue fire? A: Q: 26. Explain your choice. A: Q: 27. What is the probability that a female offspring will breathe blue fire? A: Q: 25. What is the probability of Damian and Dominique having a female dragon that breathes blue fire? A: Q: 26. Explain your choice. A: Q: 27. What is the probability that a female offspring will breathe blue fire? A: Q: 25. What is the probability of Damian and Dominique having a female dragon that breathes blue fire? A: Q: 26. Explain your choice. A: Q: 18. Do you think the mutated Fire allele fb is dominant or recessive to the existing Fire alleles F? A: fb is recessive to f Q: 8. Is wd dominant or recessive to w? A: fb is recessive to F Q: 19. Why do you think so? A: Breathing fire in general is recessive so I don't think that the color is going to change that. Q: 25.
