Please help me get this correct. In a group of cows, some individuals have horns and others do not. In this group, the gene for the horns trait has two alleles. The allele H is for not having horns, and the allele h is for having horns.

Petunia, a cow from this group, does not have horns. Petunia has two alleles for not having horns.
Based on this information, what is Petunia's genotype for the horns gene?

I believe that it would be HH because Petunia has 2 alleles and both are for no horns. HH=no horns Hh also means no horns, and hh means horns:)
