In rabbits. brown fur B is dominant to white fur (b) and short fur (H) is dominant to long fur (h).

A brown. long-furred rabbit (Bbhh) is crossed with a white, short-furred rabbit (bbHh). Both the Band H traits
assort independently from one another
What percentage of the offspring will be brown with long fur?​

The cross between Bbhh and bbHh yields genotypic frequencies

  • 1/4 BbHh
  • 1/4 Bbhh
  • 1/4 bbHh
  • 1/4 bbhh

so that 1/4 of the offspring should be expected to be brown with long fur (genotype Bbhh)
