Question

Answer 1

Answer 2

I am studying Condominant Genes in Biology and the color of cat's coats are condominant. I am having a hard time understanding cat genetics.

Answer 3

U have heard of a punnent square right?

Answer 4

I also forgot to state, the female tuxedo cat has tan eyes. I believe the kitten(s) eyes would be tan with blue splotches

Answer 5

Yes.

Answer 6

How would I write a punnet square for only one kitten?

Answer 7

Use a punnent square to find ur answer

Answer 8

Oh for one kitten well u would probably use only one square

Answer 9

I think

Answer 10

I do not know which of these traits are dominant or recessive traits, and I haven't learned how to show a Punnet Square if the genes are condominant. Condominant meaning the genes are mixed, for example a flower with red petals, and a flower with white petals would have pink petals.

Answer 11

offspring with pink petals*

Answer 13

OK I don't really know at this point.

Answer 14

Thank you for your help.

Answer 15

You've earned your first fan! =)

Answer 16

Sorry I would have been able to really help if they would have given you the dominant and recessive traits.

Answer 17

That's alright.

Answer 18

do you still need help?

Answer 19

Yes, please. Very Much. =(

Answer 20

Okay let me take a look :)

Answer 21

If you cannot help me, it is ok. I was only using this as a topic in an essay for a quiz. I can try to find something less impossible to figure out, as the main idea or example.

Answer 22

I didn't think the color of cat's coat would be so complicated.

Answer 23

Yeah, let me think, i kinda remember this one

Answer 24

Okay so I know that Recessive epistasis is when the recessive allele of one gene masks the effects of either allele of the second gene. Dominant epistasis: when the dominant allele of one gene masks the effects of either allele of the second gene. Making sense?

Answer 25

I think so. Yeah.

Answer 26

Otherwise i dont know the actual color of that cat, but i just know what causes to change it, did this kinda help?

Answer 27

Um. I think so. I can just make a guess on what it would look like based of of other cats. Thanks so much for your help!

Answer 28

Here's the medal I promised.

Answer 29

Yes you could :) Your teacher would just want to know how it changed and what cause it, as i explained, so use that info okay hun? :)

Answer 30

Oh and thanks :)

Answer 31

I don't think it would really matter. My Biology teacher is really cool, like the rest of my teachers.

Answer 32

And no problem. You earned it.=
