In mice, the gene C for colored fur is dominant over its allele c for white. The gene B for normal behavior (normal) is dominant over b, which causes waltzing. Give the probable genotypes of the parent mice (each was mated repeatedly) that produce the following offspring. Additionally, use a chi-squared analysis to determine if the offspring deviate from the expected ratios. a. Colored, normal mated with white, normal, producing 29 colored, normal and 10 colored waltzers b. Colored, normal mated with colored, normal, produced 38 colored, normal, 15 colored, waltzers, 11 white, normal, and 4 white, waltzers c. Colored, normal mated with a white, waltzer, produced 8 colored, normal, 7 colored waltzers, 9 white, normal, and 6 white, waltzers
