You cross a guinea pig that you know to be homozygous recessive for both coat color (where T- is tan, and tt is white) and coat texture (where F- is fuzzy and ff is straight) with a guinea pig of that has both dominant traits, but for which you don't know the genotype. You end up with a 1:1:1:1 ratio of the possible phenotypes, Tan Fuzzy, Tan Straight, White Fuzzy, White Straight. What was the genotype of the second guinea pig?

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.
