1. Among dogs, short hair is dominant to long hair anddark coat color is dominant to white (albino) coat color. Assumethat these two coat traits are caused by independently segregatinggene pairs. For each of the crosses given below, write the mostprobable genotype (or genotypes if more than one answer ispossible) for the parents. It is important that you select arealistic symbol set and define each symbol below. ParentalPhenotypes Phenotypes of Offspring Short Long Short Long Dark DarkAlbino Albino (a) dark, short X dark, long 26 24 0 0 (b) albino,short X albino, short 0 0 102 33 (c) dark, short X albino, short 160 16 0 (d) dark, short X dark, short 175 67 61 21 Assume that forcross (d) above you were interested in determining whether furcolor follows a 3:1 ratio. Calculate the chi-squared teststatistic. Which one of the following answers is closest to thatvalue? Select one: A. 7.82 B. 51 C. 0.011 D. 100
