In a certain dog breed, the allele B for a black coat is dominant, and the allele b for a spotted coat is recessive. What genotypes for this dog breed would lead to a spotted phenotype? (1 point) Responses Bb Bb BB and bb BB and bb bb bb BB

1 answer

In this dog breed, the allele for a black coat (B) is dominant, while the allele for a spotted coat (b) is recessive. For a dog to exhibit a spotted phenotype, it must have a genotype that includes two copies of the recessive allele (b), which means the genotype must be bb.

Therefore, the correct genotype that leads to a spotted phenotype is bb.
