You decide to breed a pair of guinea pigs, one black and one white. In guinea pigs, black fur is caused by a dominant allele (B) and white is due to homozygosity for a recessive allele (b) at the same locus. Your guinea pigs have seven offspring, four black and three white. What are the genotypes of the parents? Why is there a 1:1 ratio in this cross?
