1. A long-haired homozygous black dachshund and a true-breeding (another word for homozygous) short-haired brown dachshund produce a litter of puppies. What is the probability that the puppies will look like one of the two parents? Enter your answer as a reduced fraction. For example, 4/8 = 1/2. 2. Purple is dominant over yellow in people eaters. In a litter of baby people eaters, 3 are purple and 3 are yellow. What are the possible genotypes (and phenotypes) of the parents?
