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(:

A black guinea pig crossed with an albino guinea pig produces 12 black offspring When the albino was crossed with a second black one 7 blacks and 5 albinos resulted What is the best explanation?
The black guinea pig is homozygous for the black coat color gene, while the albino guinea pig is homozygous for the albino gene. When the albino is crossed with a black guinea pig, all the offspring inherit the black coat color gene but show the dominant black phenotype. When the albino is crossed with a second black guinea pig that is heterozygous for the gene, it leads to a 3:1 ratio of black to albino offspring due to the inheritance of the albino gene.
What is the genotype of a black guinea pig if it is crossed with a whites guinea pig and they have 4 offspring that are black and 2 offspring are white?
The black guinea pig is likely heterozygous (Bb) for coat color, while the white guinea pig is homozygous recessive (bb). The black guinea pig passes on a black allele to all offspring, resulting in 4 black (Bb) and 2 white (bb) offspring.
What kind of cross might tell you if a black guinea pig is BB or Bb?
A test cross with a homozygous recessive guinea pig (bb) would reveal the genotype of the black guinea pig. If all offspring are black, then the black guinea pig is most likely homozygous dominant (BB). If both black and white offspring are produced, then the black guinea pig is likely heterozygous (Bb).
Paul decides to cross his long haired guinea pig with a short haired guinea pigBoth were homozygous for their traitWhat is the genotypic ratio of the offspring?
The offspring will look more like the mom but they will have mid hair.
How could a guinea pig breeder whether a rough-coated guinea pig is homozygous or heteorzygous for this trait?
A breeder could determine if a rough-coated guinea pig is homozygous or heterozygous by conducting a test mating. Breeding the rough-coated guinea pig with a smooth-coated guinea pig would show if the rough coat is dominant or recessive. If all the offspring have rough coats, it indicates the rough-coated guinea pig is homozygous for the trait. If both rough and smooth-coated offspring are produced, then the rough-coated guinea pig is heterozygous.
When a black guinea pig is crossed with a white guinea pig and the litter contains a white offspring the genotype of the black haired parent contains?
4 offsprings
What is the probability of two black guinea pigs having black offspring?
depends on the two guinea pigs genotypes. could be anywhere from 75 to 100 percent.
How can you tell whether a black guinea pig is homozygous or heterzygous when black fur is dominant over white fur?
To determine if a black guinea pig is homozygous or heterozygous for black fur, you would need to cross it with a white guinea pig. If the offspring are all black, then the black guinea pig is homozygous. If any white offspring are produced, then the black guinea pig is heterozygous.
When a brown guinea pig was crossed with a white guinea pig her offspring were all brown why?
This is probably the result of the brown genes being dominant and the white genes being recessive. this is correct.
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
A short-haired guinea pig is crossed with a long-haired guinea pig. All of the F1 offspring from the cross are short-haired.Which phenotype is dominantA. long hairB. short hairC. SSD. ss?
Abyssinian
Can you cross a guinea pig with a possum?
No, guinea pigs and possums can't be crossed. Guinea pigs are Eutherians while possums are marsupials. Species as far apart as these simply can't be crossed.
