In a group of cows, some individuals have solid coloring and others have white spots. In thisgroup, the gene for the coat pattern trait has two alleles. The allele for white spots (a) isrecessive to the allele for solid coloring (A).Moxie is a cow from this group. Moxie has the homozygous genotype aa for the coat patterngene.Based on this information, what is Moxie's phenotype for the coat pattern trait?white spotssolid coloring
