Please read the scenario below, and then answer the question (in bold) that follows.In cats, the allele (B) produces a black coat color and the allele (b) produces a yellow coat color. These alleles are incompletely dominant to each other. A heterozygote produces a tortoise shell coat color. The alleles (B) and (b) are also sex-linked (i.e., they are carried on the X chromosome), and cats possess an XX-XY sex determination system, like humans. If a female cat with a tortoise shell coat mated with a male cat who had a yellow coat...What percentage of their offspring will have tortoise shell coats? a.0% b.25% c.50% d.75% e.100%
