Question

In bird dogs, barking while trailing (B) is dominant to silent while trailing (b). A heterozygous

barking trailer is bred to a silent female trailer. Various offspring resulted.

Answer 1

In bird dogs, barking while trailing (B) is dominant to silent while trailing (b). When a heterozygous barking trailer is bred to a silent female trailer, the resulting offspring can have various genotypes and phenotypes.

Step-by-step explanation:

In bird dogs, the trait of barking while trailing (B) is dominant to the trait of being silent while trailing (b). So, a heterozygous barking trailer (Bb) is bred to a silent female trailer. The resulting offspring can have various genotypes and phenotypes.

When a Bb dog is crossed with a bb dog, the possible genotypes and phenotypes for the offspring are:

• 25% chance of getting a Bb dog that barks while trailing
• 25% chance of getting a bb dog that is silent while trailing
• 50% chance of getting a Bb dog that barks while trailing and a bb dog that is silent while trailing

Answer 2

Complete question:

In bird dogs, barking while trailing (B) is dominant to silent while trailing (b). A heterozygous barking trailer is bred to a silent female trailer. Various offspring resulted.

• What is the genotype of the male animal?
• What is the genotype of the female animal?
• How many different genotypes are possible among the offspring?
• What proportion of the offspring will be heterozygous barkers?
