In Doodlewags (hypothetical creatures), the dominant allele S causes solid coat color; the recessive allele s results in white spots on a colored background. The black coat color allele B is dominant to the brown allele b, but these genes are expressed only in the genotype A-. Individuals that are aa are yellow regardless of B alleles. Six pups are produced in a mating between a solid yellow male and a solid brown female. Their phenotypes are 2 solid black, 1 spotted yellow, 1 spotted black and 2 solid brown. a. What are the genotypes of the male and female parents? Must show work/explain to get full credit.

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.
