3. 4 genes contribute to cobra length. The base (minimum) length is 6 feet for aabbccdd and the maximum length is 14 feet for AABBCCDD. Note: no Pascal's triangle is needed for this problem. a) Assuming all genes act equally to each other, how much does each capital letter allele add to the length? If you cross an AaBbCcdD cobra X an AaBBCcdd cobra, what are the minimum and maximum lengths of the offspring (once they grow up)? Show the genotypes for the min and max.
