guinea pigs, short hair (L) is dominant to long hair (l), and the heterozygous conditions of yellow coat (C Y ) and white coat (C W ) give cream coat. A short- haired, cream guinea pig is bred to a long-haired, white guinea pig, and a long-haired, cream baby guinea pig is produced. When the baby grows up, it is bred back to the short-haired, cream parent. What phenotypic classes, and in what proportions, are expected among the offspring?

Pigments in some bears are the result of epistasis between 2 genes. The black coat color is only produced when both wildtype forms of genes D and E are present. When gene D (D-ee) is wildtype alone, offspring are white. When gene E (ddE-) is wildtype alone, offspring are brown. When no wildtype alleles are present (ddee) offspring are all white. Based on this describe the relationship between the genes D and E. Group of answer choices A-D is dominant to E B- E is dominant to D C- D is epistatic to E D- E is epistatic to D

In guinea pigs, the allele for black fur (B) is dominant over the allele for brown (b) fur. A black guinea pig is crossed with a brown guinea pig, producing five F1 black guinea pigs and six F1 brown guinea pigs. Q. How many copies of the black allele (B) will be present in each cell of an F1 black guinea pig at the following stages: G1, G2, metaphase of mitosis, metaphase I of meiosis, metaphase II of meiosis, and after the second cytokinesis following meiosis? Assume that no crossing over takes place.
