In rabbits, black fur (B) is dominant to white (b), and long ears (E) are dominant toshort ears (e). What is the expected phenotypic ratio of the offspring ofa BBee x bbEE cross if these alleles sort independently? (B.6F)16 Black/Long Ears : 0 Black/Short Ears : 0 White/Long Ears : 0 White/ShortEars8 Black/Long Ears : 0 Black/Short Ears : 8 White/Long Ears : 0 White/ShortEars4 Black/Long Ears : 4 Black/Short Ears : 4 White/Long Ears : 4 White/ShortEars1 Black/Long Ears : 3 Black/Short Ears : 3 White/Long Ears : 9 White/ShortEars

16 Black/Long Ears : 0 Black/Short Ears : 0 White/Long Ears : 0 White/ShortEars

Explanation:

Black fur (B) is dominant over white (b) and long ears (E) is dominant over short ears (e).

BBee was crossed with bbEE:

   BBee    x    bbEE (See the attached image for the Punnet's square)

Offspring:              

16 BbEe - Black fur and Long ears

All other phenotypes are 0.

Hence, the answer would be 16 Black/Long Ears : 0 Black/Short Ears : 0 White/Long Ears : 0 White/ShortEars.

i'm gonna put a couple so you can chose from

explanation:

if you know the fur color of the offspring mice, you can use the ratios to identify the genotypes of the parents.

if either parent mouse passes a dominant allele, the offspring will have black fur.

if the parental mice has two different fur color (i.e white and black) , the color of the offspring's fur would be either black, white, or the combination of both (grey)

hope this : )
