QUESTION 8 Let's assume that, in dragons, red scales (B) are dominant to green scales (b), and long tongues (S) are dominant to short tongues (s). The genes that determine these characteristics assort independently. A homozygous red, long-tongued dragon is crossed with a homozygous green, short-tongued dragon. If an F1 dragon is crossed to a homozygous green and homozygous short-tongued dragon, what phenotypes and proportions are expected in the offspring? O a. 100% green and long-tongued O b. ½ green and short-tongued & ½ red and long-tongued O c. ½ red and short-tongued & ½ green and long-tongued O d.% red and long-tongued, % red and short-tongued, % green and long-tongued, 4 green and short-tongued O e. 9/16 red, long-tongued, 3/16 green, long-tongued, 3/16 red, short-tongued, 1/16 green, short-tongued
