Parakeets can have white, blue, green or yellow feathers. Feather color in parakeets is determined by two different genes Y and B. YYBB, YYBb, YyBB, or YyBb is green; yyBB or yyBb is blue; YYbb or Yybb is yellow; and yybb is white. A yellow parakeet and a white parakeet were crossed. Over the years, they produced 25 offspring, 12 of which were white. What are the most likely genotypes for the two parent parakeets?
