The postulates of General Replicator theory are as follows
1 Traits of Replicators are randomly generated.
2 Traits of Replicators are inherited by "children"
from "parents".
3 Traits of Replicators are selected by the environment.
The general process is that characteristics are continually
being generated in a random manner, usually by varying
existing traits, but this is not a necessary assumption.
These characteristics, and existing ones, are replicated in
children, with the environment acting in a non-random (but
usually non-conscious) manner selecting what particular
characteristics survive. In principle, it does not matter
whether or not traits are randomly generated or
deliberately generated. The theory still applies
identically. The reason for introducing the concept of
random generation, is simply to explain that complicated
behavior does not require any conscious or designer type
intervention.

Flower position, stem length, and seed shape were three traits that were studied by Mendel. Each is controlled by an independently assorting gene. If a plant that is heterozygous for all three traits was allowed to self- fertilize, what proportion of the offspring would be expected to show all three dominant phenotypes?

Consider two linked autosomal genes. The dominant allele C of the first gene causes cataracts of the eye, whereas its recessive allele produces normal eyes. The dominant allele P causes polydactyly (an extra finger) whereas its allele (p) produces a normal number of fingers. A man with cataracts and normal fingers marries a woman with polydactyly and normal eyes. Their son has both polydactyly and cataracts and he marries a woman with neither trait. What is the probability that their first child will have cataracts and polydactyly?

In mice colored coat is dominant to albinism. Sniffles, a male mouse with a colored coat is mated to Esmeralda, an alluring albino. The resulting litter of six young all had colored fur. The next time around Esmeralda was mated with Whiskers, who was the same color as Sniffles; some of this litter were white. a)What are the probable genotypes of Sniffles, Esmeralda, and Whiskers? b) If a male of the 1st litterwas mated to a colored female of the 2nd litter, what phenotypic ratio might be expected among the offspring? c)What would be the expected results if a male of the 1st litter was mated to an albino from the 2nd?
