In seals, the gene for the length of whiskers has two alleles. The dominant allele (L) codes long whiskers & the recessive allele (l) codes for short whiskers. If one parent seal is purebred long-whiskered and the other is a hybrid, what percent of offspring would have long whiskers?

It would most likely be around 75 becuase assuming that 1 seals genes is worth 50 percent and the others is also worth 50 percent than you have a 50 and 25 percent chance of long whiskers

Probably around 75% because one parent is a hybrid so it is half long and short and th other parent is long
