Question

if a purebred brown hamster mates with a purebred white hamster, and all the offspring in the f1 generation are brown, which statement is true of the brown and white traits?

Answer 1

If a purebred brown hamster mates with a purebred white hamster, and all the offspring in the F1 generation are brown, then the brown trait is dominant and the white trait is recessive. This means that the brown trait is expressed in the F1 generation, while the white trait is not expressed. However, the white trait is still present in the genes of the F1 generation and can be passed down to the next generation.
