Imagine you are working for a researcher at ummc next summer on an obesity project. She asks you to assist in an experiment in which mice that are heterozygous for 5 mendelian traits (e.G., pp qq rr ss tt) are crossed. Since she knows you took genetics, so she asks you: if 500 baby mice are born from such a cross, how many of these progeny would you expect to be phenotypically dominant in two of any these traits? (round to the nearest integer. Tip: work out the probability of being dominant in just two of these traits and then add up how many ways you can get (different) pairs of dominant traits.)
