- the closer or higher the degree of relationship of the parents, the higher the inbreeding depression of the offspring. true or falseA litter of puppies do not always have exactly the fur color. This means their traits areA certain population has two fur color genes: B (black, dominant) and b (brown, recessive). Suppose you look at a population that is 25% brown and 75% black. Estimate the percentages in the gene pool that are B and b.
