Brown fur vs white fur. Say that the alleles for fur color (brown or white) are written using the letter “B” and “b”. The dominant trait is brown, white fur color represents the recessive trait.   If you crossed two homozygous recessive individuals for fur color, what would be the chances of having an offspring with the white phenotype?

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.
