A black mare crossed to a chestnut stallion produced a bay son and a bay daughter. The two offspring were mated to each other several times, and they produced offspring of four different coat colors: black, bay, chestnut, and liver. Crossing a liver grandson back to the black mare gave a black foal, and crossing a liver granddaughter back to the chestnut stallion gave a chestnut foal. Explain how coat color is being inherited in these horses.

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
