Pigment in mouse fur is only produced when the C allele is present. Individuals of the cc genotype are white. If color is present, it may be determined by the A, a alleles. AA or Aa results in agouti color, while aa results in black coats.

(a) What F1 and F2 genotypic and phenotypic ratios are obtained from a cross between AACC and aacc mice?


(b) In three crosses between agouti females whose genotypes were unknown and males of the aacc genotype, the following phenotypic ratios were obtained:

(1) 8 agouti

(2) 9 agouti

(3) 4 agouti

8 white

10 black

5 black

 

 

10 white

What are the genotypes of these female parents?
