Answer:
Fur colour can be represented by both the dominant and the recessive alleles of the gene encoding the fur color.
Explanation:
- Considering that the fur colour trait follows Mendelian laws of inheritance.
- The dominant allele can express itself in both the homozygous and heterozygous condition.
- The recessive allele can represent itself only in the homozygous condition.
- Therefore, there will be two phenotypes, one will be represented by both the homozygous dominant and heterozygous dominant genotypes and the other represented by the homozygous recessive genotype.
- Considering that the fur colour trait does not follows Mendelian laws of inheritance (Incomplete Dominance or Codominance).
- In Incomplete dominance, three phenotypes are observed, for each of homozygous dominant, heterozygous dominant and homozygous recessive genotypes respectively.
- In Codominance, phenotypes of both the dominant and recessive genotype is shown in the same individual.
