In cocker spaniels, black color (b) is dominant over red (b), and solid color (S) is dominant over spotted (s).
If the genes are linked and the offspring of BBss and bbss individuals are mated with each other, what fraction of their offspring will be black and spotted?

a) 1/16 b) 9/16 c) 1/9 d) 3/16 e) 3/4

Explanation:

As given;

Black (B) is dominant over red (b), so B is dominant over b.

Solid (S) is dominant over spotted color(s), so S is dominant over s.

Offspring of BBss and bbss individuals are:

Gametes of parent BBss are Bs, Bs and gamete of bbss are bs, bs

offspring are : all Bbss

Cross between these offspring is; Bbss×Bbss

Gametes of parent Bbss are: Bs and bs  as given that the genes are linked.

Bs, bs × Bb, bs

Offspring are = BBss, Bbss, Bbss, bbss

Black spotted (B_ss) = 3/4

typically, most spiders possess eight eyes. however, others have as many as 12, and some don't have any. these eyes are for detecting light from dark, deciphering shapes and for gathering their prey.

the cladogram shown here shows similarities and differences among several classes of vertebrates. anatomically, the four have limb structure as their common ancestor. we might separate the mammals from the other three classes because they a) divergent; do not lay eggs b) identical; are warm-blooded c) varied; a four chambered heart d) homologous; have mammary glands
