ANSWER SHHET
Yes. The puppy's genotype is Aa.
Yes. The puppy got the A allele from his mother. Therefore, she has at least one
dominant A allele.
You do not know. The dad passed the a allele to the puppy but the dad could have
the genotype Aa and have a spotted coat or have the aa genotype and have a solid
coat.
The puppy will have a wiry texture to the coat because its genotype is Tt.
Yes. The puppy got the T allele from his dad, so we know the dad had to have a wiry
coat. Mom may have a wiry coat. She passed the t allele to the puppy but her other
allele could be T, we don't know.
The puppy will have curly hair because its genotype is HH.
Yes. The mom dog passed on of the H dominant alleles therefore she must have curly
hair.
Yes. The dad dog passed on of the H dominant alleles therefore he must have curly
hair.
When you have two different alleles for a trait.
Coat pattern (Aa), Hair texture (Tt) and Hair length (Ll) are heterozygous
When you have two of the same alleles for a trait.
Hair curliness is the only trait in which the puppy is homozygous (HH)
The puppy's parents have two alleles for each trait but pass only one or the other. We
know the allele the puppy got from each parent but do not know the parent's 2nd allele.
