Question

In domesticated dogs, hair type is controlled by two different alleles. The allele for wire hair (H) and the allele for smooth hair is (h).


When two heterozygous dogs are crossed, what percentage of the offspring is expected to be homozygous for smooth hair?

GPT-5 mini · Answer

Cross Hh × Hh.

Punnett square: HH, Hh, Hh, hh → 1 out of 4 = 25%.

So 25% of the offspring are expected to be homozygous for smooth hair (hh).

In domesticated dogs, hair type is controlled by two different alleles. The allele for wire hair (H) and the allele for smooth hair is (h).
