Cross an agouti rabbit with a chinchilla, using the following alleles: A=agouti, C=chinchilla, a=albino, A is dominant over C and a, C is dominant over a. Then using one of those offspring, complete a cross with an albino. Indicate the phenotypic ratios. Assume the agouti rabbit is female.


A. 3/4 chinchilla, 1/4 albino

B. 1/2 chinchilla, 1/4 albino

C. 3/4 albino, 1/4 chinchilla


I'm insanely confused because both an agouti and chinchilla are dominant compared to the albino so how is albino even an option???

Sagot :

Since both the parents are homozygous there allele would be

( Agouti X Albino ) x ( Augoti x Albino)

= (Agouti, Albino), (Agouti, Albino), (Agouti,Agouti ), (Albino , Albino)

The correct answer is option C

Are rabbits predominately agouti?

Of all the A series genes, the agouti gene has the highest level of dominance.This indicates that regardless of whether a rabbit obtains an a(t), a, or A from the other parent, the agouti pattern will be present if it inherits this gene from one parent.The "wild bunny" pattern is produced by this gene.
