Two rabbits, one with a brown coat (Cc) and the other with a white coat (cc), are crossed. What are the likely results of this cross?
A.
All of the offspring will have white coats, and none will have brown coats.
B.
One–half of the offspring will have brown coats, and one–half will have white coats.
C.
All of the offspring will have brown coats, and none will have white coats.
Answer:B is the correct answer. In a 4x4 grid, with Cc and cc, two of the offspring will have Cc genes and two will have cc genes. This means half of the rabbits will have brown coats and half will have white.
