Question

8. In guinea pigs, the allele for black fur (B) is dominant over the allele for white fur (b). Similarly,
the allele for straight hair (H) is dominant over the allele for having rough hair (h). Pure breeding
rough haired guinea pigs with black fur were crossed with pure breeding straight haired guinea
pigs with white fur.
a. State the genotype and the phenotype of the F1 individuals produced as a result of this
cross.
b. Two F1 offspring were mated together. Calculate the expected ratio of phenotypes in
the F2 generation.
c. Show the completed Punnett square below.
