Question

Cats are hairless when homozygous recessive (hh) for the Hairless gene. Cats have straight hair when recessive for the curly gene (cc). The H gene determines whether hair can be produced, and the C gene determines whether the hair is curly. These genes work in an epistatic pathway, with H/h first, then C/c. You cross a straight-haired cat to a hairless cat with genotype CChh, and find that all of the F1 kittens have curly hair.
