Genetics In deer, the gene
(a) What percent of the possible gene combinations result in albino coloring?
(b) Each parent’s gene combination is represented by the polynomial
(c) The coefficient of each term of the polynomial you wrote in part (b) is the probability (indecimal form) of the offspring having that gene combination. Use this polynomial toconfirm your answer in part (a). Explain.
