You are given two true-breeding groups of gerbils. The gerbils in the first group have black fur and curly tails; the gerbils in the second group have yellow fur and straight tails. When you produce an F1 generation, you see only gerbils with black fur and curly tails. When you produce an F2 generation, you see that 75% of the gerbils have black fur and 25% have yellow fur. You also see that 25% of the gerbils have straight tails and 75% have curly tails. If the single alleles responsible for coat color and tall appearance sort independently, how many of the black gerbils in this generation are expected to have straight tails? 25% 0% 75% 100%
