According to Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment, there is a relationship between the color of a dog's hair and his eye color.TrueFalse

2. A study found that children with light-coloured eyes are likely to have parentswith light-coloured eyes. On this basis, can we say anything about whether thelight eye colour trait is dominant or recessive? Why or why not?3. Outline a project which aims to find the dominant coat colour in dogs.4. How is the equal genetic contribution of male and female parents ensured inthe progeny?Rationalised 2023-24

Dogs are inbred for such desirable characteristics as blue eye color, but an unfortunate by-product of such inbreeding can be the emergence of characteristics such as deafness. A 1992 study of Dalmatians (by Strain and others, as reported in The Dalmatians Dilemma) found the following:(i) 31% of all Dalmatians have blue eyes.(ii) 38% of all Dalmatians are deaf.(iii) If a Dalmatian has blue eyes, there is a 42% chance that it is deaf.Based on the results of this study is "having blue eyes" independent of "being deaf"? No, since 0.38 is not equal to 0.42. Yes, since 0.31 * 0.38 is not equal to 0.42. Yes, since 0.38 is not equal to 0.42. No, since 0.31 is not equal to 0.42.

Traits like eye color are inherited unequally, regardless of gender, since they travel on your autosomes.ResponsesTrueTrueFalse
