Black skin color is dominant to pink skin color in pigs....

Question

Black skin color is dominant to pink skin color in pigs. Two heterozygous black pigs are crossed.

What is the probability that their offspring will have pink skin?

Accepted Answer

Hello, everybody. Let's look at our next question. It says white furred rabbits are dominant over brown furred rabbits. If we cross the true breeding rabbits with different traits, what is the probability of producing white furred rabbits? So here we have a theoretical example where we have white fur and brown for white being dominant, although nature white is usually recessive, but we're just going by what we're given in this problem. Um And we're gonna cross true breeding lines of these two different traits. Well, by true breeding lines, we mean lines that have over and over again, produce the same trait. So we can assume that their home was, I guess for whatever trait they are. So we would assume in this case, if white is dominant over brown, we'll call our alleles big, W for white and little W for brown as you kind of uh, normally use the first letter of the dominant trait. And then of course, in capital and lowercase form. So we're going to assume that our cross is going to be big, W big, W for our white parent and little W little W for our brown parent. So there's a pretty basic um, cross here. So let's put up our pendant square. So put that here. And if we know we have two homos, I guess parents, then we know that all of the offspring are going to be heterocyclic since the east inherit one allele for each trait from each parent. So in the case of heterocyclic, it's, they're going to show the dominant trait. So 100% of the offspring are going to have white fur and that's going to be choice d here 100%.
