Question
Black fur in mice is dominant to white fur. Short tails are dominant to long tails. A mouse that is heterozygous for both fur color and tail length is crossed with a white, long-tailed mouse. What would be the fraction of the offspring that would have both black fur and short tails?

- A type of mouse may have round ears or pointed ears. A female mouse homozygous for pointed ears is crossed with a male mouse homozygous for round ears. All the male offspring have pointed ears and all the female offspring have round ears. When the F1 offspring are crossed with each other, the resulting F2 are produced in the following ratios: Males: 3 pointed : 1 rounded Females: 3 rounded : 1 pointed Explain the inheritance mechanism that produces these results and indicate the dominance relationship.arrow_forwardA fish with red eyes and yellow scales is crossed to a pure-breeding fish with brown eyes and orange scales, resulting in offspring having red eyes and yellow scales (50%) or brown eyes and yellow scales (50%). You cross the red eye/yellow scale offspring together, and the resulting offspring are as follows. How are these traits likely inherited Number of offspring 676-yellow/red 224-red/orange 224-brown/yellow 76-brown/orangearrow_forwardThree different genes determine the coat colour of cats. One of the genes controls the black-based coat colour. There are three alleles for black-based coat colour genes with the following order of dominance: black (B) > chocolate (bch) > cinnamon (bc).
