A) provide breeding schemes
B) after breeding experiments, provide a scheme of identifying thepure-bred one with black

color. Also, what is the frequency of the pure-bred one amongthe black puppies.

(B) is dominant to the gene for cream (b). If a pigment gene (P)is absent, genes B and b are inoperative or non-functional,resulting in albino phenotype.

A) What kind of inheritance patterns is this? Provide a briefexplanation.
B) Provide the genotype and phenotype of the F1 of a cross betweenhomozygous black rat

and an albino homozygous for cream.

C) If you self-cross the F1 describe above, what kinds of ratwill you see in terms of genotype and phenotype?
