If two phenotypically normal tigers that are heterozygous at this locus are mated, what percentage of their offspring will be cross-eyed? Express your answer using the percent symbol and no spaces (for example, 10%).

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]75[/tex] percent offspring will be cross eyed

Explanation:

Given -

Two tigers are phenotypically normal tigers that are heterozygous at  locus for cross eyed trait.

Let "E" represents allele for cross eyed trait and "e" represents the allele for other than cross eyed trait and E is dominant over e.

Genotype of heterozygous cross eyed will be "Ee"

Ee * Ee

EE, Ee, Ee, ee

Out of four, three offspring are cross eyed phenotypically.

[tex]\frac{3}{4} * 100\\= 75[/tex]% offspring will be cross eyed.
