Question

HELP ASAP In a breed of dogs, the BbEe genotype gives rise to yellow fur color, the Bbee genotype gives rise to black fur color, and bbee gives rise to brown fur color. Which of the following terms can be used in categorizing this inheritance pattern?

A. codominance
B. incomplete dominance
C. multiple alleles
D. polygenic

Answer 1

Codominance means both exist

Incomplete means mix of two

Multiple alleles is when theres more than 2 like for describing blood type

So the answer is polygenetic!

Answer 2

The most appropriate polygenic.

Polygenic trait refers to the trait which is controlled by two or more genes.

For example, height and skin color.

In the given breed, the phenotype of fur color is controlled by the interaction of two genes; gene B and gene E.

Thus, it is an example of polygenic inheritance.
