In gorillas, the alleles for silver-gray fur (G) and yellow eyes (E) are dominant over the alleles for black fur (g) and blue eyes (e). Assume that these genes are unlinked.

Question

a). If a gorilla names George was the product of a homozygous dominant father and a homozygous recessive mother, what are the genotype and phenotype of George's parents?

b). what are George's genotype and phenotype?

c). If the George is mated to Gigi, a gorilla who has exactly the same genotype as himself what would be the expected phenotypic ration of their offspring?

Answer 1

I will be happy to critique your thinking.
