Question

PLEASE HELP MEH WILL GIVE ALOT OF POINTSSSS

In rabbits, white fur (W) is dominant to black fur (w), and long ears (E) are dominant to short ears (e). A breeder mates two rabbits that are heterozygous (WwEe) for both traits. What is the chance that the offspring will be white with short ears?

a. 6/16
b. 8/16
c. 4/16
d. 3/16

Answer 1

3/16

Step-by-step explanation:

WE We wE we

WE WWEE WWEe WwEE WwEe

We WWEe WWee WwEe Wwee

wE WwEE WwEe wwEE wwEe

we WwEe Wwee wwEe wwee

The way you get these combinations is you take your original code: WwEe and put each combination possible with each trait.

WE, We, wE, we. Since they are both this same code, cross each one in a 16 punnett square.
