What would be the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring


1. In southwest Rhode Island, there is a creature know as a tomcat. It comes in three colors, blue, red, and purple. This trait expresses incomplete dominance. A homozygous dominant individual is blue, a homozygous recessive individual is red, and a heterozygous individual is purple.

a. What would be the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring if a blue tomcat were crossed with a red one?

b. What are the genotypic ratios of the F2 generation? * Genotypic ratio is recorded as follows: (homozygous dominant : heterozygous : homozygous recessive)

c. If the F2 generation consisted of only 8 individuals, how many tomcats would be purple?
