### Dominance Relationships in a Certain Species of Dolphins

In a certain species of dolphins which produce one offspring per mating, the following complete dominance relationships have been determined for the following characteristics:

- **Blow Hole Shape**
  - **Oval-shaped (B)** is completely dominant to **crescent-shaped (b)**.

- **Training**
  - **Easy (E)** is completely dominant to **difficult (e)**.

- **Performance of Flips**
  - **Ability to perform flips (A)** is completely dominant to **inability (a)**.

- **Tail Flexibility**
  - **Flexible (R)** is completely dominant to **rigid (r)**.

### Data and Genotype Determination

Data in the tables below show the phenotypes of two different pairs of dolphin parents and their respective progeny. In the space provided by each bolded phenotype, indicate the one-factor genotype for the specified parent or progeny using the allele designations provided above (use the underscore key for dash).

**Note:** Unfortunately, the tables showing the data are not included in this text. Be sure to reference the respective table and fill out the genotypes as per the given dominance relationships.

## Genetics and Behavioral Traits Chart

The following chart presents data on genetics and behavior in a study involving two pairs of animals and their progeny. This information can help students understand inheritance patterns and potential phenotype correlations. The chart is divided into sections for each pair of animals, detailing their traits and the observed traits in their offspring (progeny). 

### Pair #1
| Trait       | Female         | Male           | Calf #1        | Calf #2        |
|-------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
| **Blow hole** | Oval (1)      | Crescent       | Crescent       | Crescent       |
| **Training** | Difficult      | Easy           | Easy (3)       | Difficult      |
| **Flips?**   | Yes            | Yes            | Yes            | Yes (5)        |
| **Tail?**    | Rigid          | Rigid (7)      | Rigid          | Rigid          |

### Pair #2
| Trait       | Female         | Male           | Calf #1        | Calf #2        | Calf #3        | Calf #4        |
|-------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
| **Blow hole** | Oval          | Oval           | Oval           | Oval (2)       | Oval           | Oval           |
| **Training** | Easy           | Easy (6)       | Difficult      | Difficult      | Easy           | Difficult      |
| **Flips?**   | No             | Yes            | Yes            | Yes            | Yes            | Yes            |
| **Tail?**    | Flexible (8)   | Flexible       | Rigid          | Rigid          | Rigid          | Rigid          |

### Analysis
- **Blow Hole Shape:** The shape of the blow hole is either oval or crescent. All offspring in Pair #1 possess the blow hole shape of the male (crescent), suggesting a potential dominance of this trait. In Pair #2, both parents have an oval blow hole, and so do all their progeny.
  
- **Training Difficulty:** Training difficulty varies among the progeny. This discrepancy can suggest a multifactorial influence involving both genetic and environmental factors. Interestingly, the easy training trait in Pair #1 progeny seems to follow no clear dominance pattern, differing between calves.

- **Performance of Flips:** The ability to perform
