If anyone can explain it it would be very helpful! Brindle coloration is a black and brown striping pattern in some dogs. This fur coloration is controlled by different alleles at a single autosomal locus. There are three alleles, KB, kbr and ky. The KB allele is dominant over the other two alleles and produces a solid black color. The allele kbr produces the brindle color pattern and is dominant over the ky allele, which produces yellow fur. Give the genotypes of the parents and offspring in each cross. P: black X yellow; F1: ½ brindle and ½ black P: black X brindle; F1: ½ black, ¼ brindle and ¼ yellow P: brindle X yellow; F1: 100% brindlearrow_forwardExamine the pedigree and answer the following questions; shaded individuals show the trait; genotypes are all unknown. The individual marked with the question mark is of an unknown genotype but does have the trait. A. What mode of inheritance is the most likely for this trait, autosomal recessive or autosomal dominant? State your rationale for full credit. B. What is the genotype of the individual marked with the question mark? (Heterozygous, homozygous, or unknown)arrow_forward

In other words, the allele a gamete receives for one gene does not influence the allele received for another gene. Assuming that during Metaphase 1 you have possibility 1 see picture below.
