In cats, Manx (M) is a dominant allele that results in cats lacking a tail. The recessive allele (m) gives a cat with a tail. (A) Write out the genotype of a heterozygous cat (B) What is the phenotype of the cat in (A)? (C) The cat in (A) has offspring with a cat that has a tail. What fraction of the offspring of that cat will have tails?

Paul has type A blood. His mother has type B blood. Paul has offspring with Penny who has type AB blood. What is the chance they have a child with Type A Blood Type B Blood Type AB Blood Type O Blood In cats short hair is dominant to long hair. You have a short haired cat. How would you tell if it is homozygous dominant or heterozygous? The Merle (M) gene affects coat color in dogs. MM Dogs are totally white Mm Dogs have white spots mixed the based color of the dog mm dogs have no spots You cross 2 Mm dogs. What are the expected genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring/ Give the expected ratios.
