Mendelian Genetics and Inheritance Patterns (1C) Practice Test

In Drosophila, a recessive mutation causes vestigial wings (v) compared with wild-type wings (V). A wild-type female of unknown genotype is crossed with a vestigial male (vv). All offspring have wild-type wings. Under Mendelian inheritance with complete dominance, which statement is most consistent?

In a dihybrid cross in corn, kernel color (Y = yellow, y = white) and kernel texture (S = smooth, s = wrinkled) assort independently. Two plants heterozygous for both loci (YySs × YySs) are crossed. Which outcome would be expected according to Mendel’s law of independent assortment?
