Answer: The heterozygous genotype for black fur is Ff.

The homozygous genotype for red eyes is ee.

The homozygous genotype for black fur is FF

Explanation: Heterozygous genotype means having a pair of gene containing one dominant allele and one recessive allele. There a heterozygous genotype for black fur will have one allele for black fur (F) and one allele for white fur (f) = (Ff)

A homozygous genotype is a pair of gene containing two identical alleles: either two dominant alleles or two recessive alleles. A homozygous genotype for red eyes will contain two recessive alleles for red eye (e) = (ee).

A homozygous genotype for black fur will contain two dominant alleles for black fur (F) = (FF).
