3) In the snail Capaea nemoralis, an autosomal allele causing a banded shell (B®) is recessive to the allele for an unbanded shell (Bº). Genes at a different locus determine the background color of the shell; here yellow (C") is recessive to brown (CB"). A banded, yellow snail is crossed with a homozygous brown, unbanded snail. The F1 are then crossed with banded, yellow snails (a test cross). b. What will the results be of the testcross be if the loci assort independently?

Question
3) In the snail Capaea nemoralis, an autosomal allele causing a banded shell (B®) is recessive to the
allele for an unbanded shell (B°). Genes at a different locus determine the background color of
the shell; here yellow (C") is recessive to brown (CBw). A banded, yellow snail is crossed with a
homozygous brown, unbanded snail. The F1 are then crossed with banded, yellow snails (a test
cross).
b. What will the results be of the testcross be if the loci assort independently?
