7. An allele is a form of a gene. In the cross HhSs x hhss, the number of alleles thata kitten inherit from the mother is 4
8. The number of alleles that a kitten inherit from the father is 4
A kitten inherits 4 alleles from its mother and 4 alleles from its father. This is because each parent contributes one allele from each gene pair to their offspring.
In biology, a dihybrid cross is a genetic cross between two organisms that differ in two traits. A trait is a characteristic of an organism that is controlled by genes. Genes are located on chromosomes, which are structures in the nucleus of a cell that contain DNA.
In a dihybrid cross, the two organisms that are being crossed are called the parents. The parents have different alleles for each of the two traits. An allele is a variant of a gene.
