Question

A set of true breeding white cows were crossed with true breeding black cows to produce all brown colored offspring. If the F2 generation yielded 113 brown, 47 black and 50 white what type of inheritance would that reflect? Full credit will only be awarded when you show your work and explain your reasoning. The type of inheritance reflected is Codominant since 50% of the offsprings doesn’t reflect the color of either parent. A single new phenotype is presented when one allele of dominance and one allele for recessive trait is paired heterozygous. This shows that for a specified gene, there are three possible phenotypes that can arise from pairing, a phenotype for homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive. For heterozygous, the allele that is dominant, W, is codominant to the allele that is recessive, w, and when paired together neither is expressed but a blended, or mixed phenotype is expressed.
