The answer depends on how big the litter is: as the litter size increases the probability of one black fur increases. But as it gets larger still, the probability falls because two or more black furs become more probable.

If a homozygous black guinea pig is crossed with a white guinea pig what is the probability that an offspring will have black fur?

depends if the black fur gene is dominant.. if it is... then yu would cross BB with bb making all heterozygous genotypes(Bb) therefore, having all possible offspring with black fur so theres a 100% probability of offspring with black fur(:

What be true to have offspring with black fur?

i think they would have 50/ chance that it has have fur.


In certain rats black fur is dominant over white fur If two rats both heterozygous for fur color are mated their offspring would be expected to have?

There different genotypes and two different colors Black fur is dominant --> F White fur is recessive --> f The parents are bot Ff (heterozygotes, and because black fur is dominant they have a black fur). If they mate, you get parents: Ff x Ff Offspring: FF Ff Ff ff so 25% will be homozygous for Black fur 2x25=50% will be heterozygous, and have a Black fur and 25% wil be homozygous for White fur. Hence, of their offspring, 75% will have a black fur and 25% will have a white fur

If a homozygous black guinea pig is crossed with a homozygous white guinea pig what is the probability that an offspring will have black fur?

100% because BB is dominant over bb and all the crosses make Bb


If you have a white mom mouse and black and white dad mouse what colors will babies be?

Well that all depends on their genetics. The white fur of the mouse is reccessive, so if they're hybrid mice then there is a chance some of their offspring will be a color other than white, such as brown. But if they're pure white mice, then yes, there is a 100% chance that their offspring will be white as wel.l


What percent of the offspring will most likely have brown fur?

for what animal. it all depends on the dominant gene (allele) and recessive. the genotype of the parents needs to be set up in a Punnett square and with that data you can determine the probability that an animal will have brown fur


Do mice shed their fur?

No


What does a Punnett Square do for geneticists?

Punnett Squares are useful because they allow you to see the chance of what genes will be handed down to the offspring. They are a quick and easy way to determine the chance of a offspring having a certain characteristic
