Question

In foxes, two alleles of a single gene, P and p, may result in lethality (PP), platinum coat (Pp), or silver coat (pp). What ratio is obtained when platinum foxes are interbred? Is the P allele behaving dominantly or recessively in causing (a) lethality; (b) platinum coat color?

Accepted Answer

Hey everyone, let's take a look at this question together. A Kandra pleasure to is not lethal. Both at heterosexuals and homosexuals dominant states. However, when the individual is home, Aziz recessive, it can cause death in the embryo. This is an example of what. So since a contra play asia is not lethal at heterosexuals and homosexuals dominant, which is this and this and it's only lethal when we have homosexuals recessive. So when we have this, that means that the pairing of two recessive alleles causes that lethality. So that means that any presence of a dominant allele means that it is not lethal. So answer choice is A. And D. Are incorrect and then answer choice B. Is also incorrect because the wild type allele is just that normal allele that is found in a population. And so the correct answer is answer choice C. Recessive lethality. Because we know that when we have that heterosexuals and homosexuals dominant states, meaning the presence of a dominant allele, achondroplasia is not lethal. But when we have the homesickness recessive state, which is this, it is lethal. So that would make a contra play jah, recessive lethality. Answer choice C. The correct answer.
