Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 3GP
A species of ornamental fish comes in two colors; red is dominant and gray is recessive. Emily owns a red fish, and she wants to know its genotype. Therefore, she mates her pet with a gray fish. If 50 of the 100 babies are red, what is the genotype of Emily’s fish?
