5. 
The color of the carnation flowers shows a partial or incomplete dominance. The R allele codes for red, the B allele for white and the heterozygote RB turns pink. At the crossing of two RB heterozygotes one might expect the color of their offspring to be:
A.
50 % Red, 50 % White
B.
25 % red, 50 % pink and 25 % white
C.
100 % Pink
D.
33 % Red, 33 % White and 33 % Pink
6. 
The color of the carnation flowers shows a partial or incomplete dominance. The R allele codes for red, the B allele for white and the heterozygote RB turns pink. At the intersection of two homozygous BBs and a heterozygous BR, how would you expect the color of the offspring to be?
A.
25 % White, 50 % Pink and 25 % Red
B.
50 % White and 50 % Red
C.
50 % White and 50 % Pink
D.
33 % White, 33 % Red and 33 % Pink
7. 
Some specimens of the Bobtail breed do not have a tail. Two dogs without a tail are crossed and the resulting offspring are: 75% puppies without a tail and 25% puppies with a tail. It can be concluded that the allele coding for "NO TAIL" is:
A.
Imposible to know
B.
Recessive
C.
Codominant
D.
Dominant
8. 
Daltonism (which is a condition that does not allow to distinguish some colors) is due to a recessive gene linked to the X chromosome. This recessive gene for color blindness is represented by dX and the chromosome of an un-impaired vision by X. What would be the possible phenotype of children resulting from the marriage between a carrier woman and a visually un-impaired man?
A.
25 % carrier woman, 25 % daltonic woman, 25% normal man and 25 % carrier man.
B.
50 % carrier woman y 50 % normal man
C.
25 % normal woman, 25% carrier woman, 25 % normal man and 25 % daltonic man
D.
50 % normal woman and 50 % daltonic man
