In some aliens, one center horn (A) is codominant with two horns (B). If an alien inherits both alleles (AB), then the alien has three horns. A recessive allele (O) results in an alien which has no horns. Can you match the genotype to each of the pictures below? Write the genotype and phenotype of the four aliens in the box provided. 4.

Mang Marcelino owns purebred red cows. In his farm he noticed that
after a typhoon several months ago, all the fences that separate his cattle
from his neighbor's cattle were destroyed. During the time that the fences
were down, three bulls, one from each neighbor, mingled with his cows. For
a while, he thought that none of the bulls found his cows, but over the
months, he noticed that all his cows are pregnant. He suspected that one of
the bulls is the father. Which bull is it? Help Mang Marcelino look for the
father by solving the given problem.
Determine the possible traits of the calves if:
• a red (RR) bull is mated with a red (RR) cow 1
a red (RR) bull is mated with a white (WW) cow 2
• a roan (RW) is mated with a red (RR)cow 3
2. Illustrate your answers using a Punnett square.
3. Write your answers on a sheet of paper.
4. Answer the following questions:
a. Will you be able to trace the father of the calves?
