Answer:

The correct answer is : No, the gene can't mutate like the two parents with white wool had a child black wool. This works on edg.

No because it would look like ww to ww. So if you took a w from each parent the offspring would be ww/ have black wool. Say one parent had white wool that the offspring would be Ww so it is more likely to have white wool. Hope this helps
