Science assignment

Use the chart to complete this assignment

In this section, please include the if/then statements you developed during your lab activity. These statements reflect your predicted outcomes for the experiment.

 

Test One: If I breed a short fur, FF female with a short fur, Ff male, then I will expect to see

(CHOOSE ONE: all short fur; some short and some long fur; all long fur) offspring.

 

Test Two: If I breed a short fur, Ff female with a short fur, Ff male, then I will expect to see

(CHOOSE ONE: all short fur; some short and some long fur; all long fur) offspring.

 

Test Three: If I breed a long fur, ff female with a long fur, ff male, then I will expect to see

(CHOOSE ONE: all short fur; some short and some long fur; all long fur) offspring.

 

Procedure:

The procedures are listed in your virtual lab. You do not need to repeat them here. Please be sure to identify the test variable (independent variable) and the outcome variable (dependent variable) for this investigation.

 

Remember, the test variable is what is changing in this investigation. The outcome variable is what you are measuring in this investigation.

 

Test variable (independent variable): ( 2 points).

 

Outcome variable (dependent variable): (2 points)

 

 

Conclusion: (16 points)

Your conclusion will include a summary of the lab results and an interpretation of the results. Please write in complete sentences.

    1. Which genotype(s) and phenotype for fur length are dominant?

Genotype:

Phenotype:

 

   2. Which genotype(s) and phenotype for fur length are recessive?

Genotype:

Phenotype:

 

   3. If you have a hamster with short fur, what possible genotypes could the hamster have?

 

   4. If you have a hamster with long fur, what possible genotypes could the hamster have?

 

   5. Did your data support your hypotheses? Use evidence to support your answer for each test. (State yes or no. State your hypothesis and the outcome to justify your answer.)

       Test One:

       Test Two:

       Test Three:

 

6. Which hamsters are the parents of the mystery hamster? Include evidence to prove that they are the correct parents.
