In chickens, cock feathering is an autosomal recessive trait that is limited to males. Is it possible to cross a cock-feathered male with a hen-feathered female and get male progeny that are cock-feathered? Explain your reasoning.
In some sheep, horns are produced by an autosomal allele that is dominant in males and recessive in females. A horned female is crossed with a hornless male. One of the resulting F1 females is crossed with a hornless male. What proportion of the male and female progeny from this cross will have horns?
