Proportion of offspring with each genotype and
Introduction:
Offspring are produced by the process of mating between the parents. A test cross involves a cross between a progeny and homozygous recessive parent whereas a back cross involves the crossing of a heterozygous progeny with one of the parents.

Students have asked these similar questions
calculate the proportions of offspring with each genotype and phenotype that would be produced by mating parents with various combinations of the two alleles?
Give two example of out-breeding?
Give written answer with explanation and conclusion
A cross was made between a white male dog and two different black females. The first female gave birth to eight black pups, and the second female gave birth to four white and three black pups. What are the likely genotypes of the male parent and the two female parents? Use Punnett’s squares to support your answer. Explain whether you are uncertain about any of the genotypes.
