Question

In rabbits, fur colour can be either grey, black or blotchy. Blotchy is present as grey and black spots
present in no specific pattern. Males are almost always either grey or black, while females can be
grey, black or blotchy. However, a male individual is found that shows the blotchy pattern, and you
expect a non-disjunction event might be to blame. Explain the inheritance of coat colour in rabbits,
and also provide an explanation for the blotchy male.
