Pigment in mouse fur is only produced when the C allele is present. Individuals of the cc genotype are white. If color is present, it may be determined by the A, a AA or Aa results in agouti color, while aa results in black coats.  What F1 and F2 genotypic and phenotypic ratios are obtained from a cross between AACC and  aacc mice?  (F2: intercross between F1 offspring) Explain briefly the pattern of inheritance in this problem set and how you determined the phenotypic ratios in the offspring.
