Explain how it is possible that two rabbits share the same parent but different traits than each other for ear floppiness?What are all possible gene combinations.

Sagot :

First, we designate the genes and the characteristics they cause:

F1: normal ears

F2: floppy ears

If the parents have the same genotype (F1F2) and the F1 allele is dominant over the F2 allele, we can draw the punnet chart as follows:

The phenotypes of the offspring would be as follows:

F1F1: normal ears

F1F2: normal ears

F2F2: floppy ears

Therefore, the parents can have offspring with floppy and normal ears because they are heterozygous for the trait.
