Review the information on Labrador retrievers above.  What are the phenotypic ratios of the F1 generation offspring of two dihybrids? Make sure to match the numbers with coat colors (e.g, which number in the ration goes with which color).  Use a Punnett square to determine the ratios and show your work.  Make sure to state the phenotypic ratios.  Finally, what color are the parents?

Mitochondrial Mutations

A mitochondrion is a cellular organelle that serves as the site for cellular respiration and energy production (ATP or Adenosine Triphosphate). It is a double-membrane-bound organelle and is only present in eukaryotic cells.
