A population of beetles in the species Dwayne therock (I made this up) are living in a rotting log in a forest. In these beetles, color is controlled by 1 gene. There are two alleles - R for Red and r for orange. this is an autosomal trait with complete dominance Questions part 1 1. What are all the possible genotypes a red beetle could have? (list them all) 2. What phenotype would a heterozygous beetle have?
