Five loci defined by microarrays are known to contribute to meat quality in cattle. Premium meat quality occurs when eight or more of the alleles at these five loci are contributing. Uppercase letters indicate contributing alleles, and lowercase letters indicate noncontributing alleles. One can determine the genotype of cattle with a microarray. If the following genotypes of a cow and a bull, respectively, are crossed, what is the probability that the first offspring will have eight or more contributing alleles? Assume all loci are autosomal and independent. AaBbccDDEe × AaBBCCDdEe 0.7125 0.6563 0.1094 0.2344 0.3438
