Question

in a group of rabbits, some individuals have black fur and others have brown fur. in this group, the gene for the fur color trait has two alleles. the allele for black fur (f) is dominant over the allele for brown fur (f).
algernon is a rabbit from this group. algernon has the homozygous genotype ff for the fur color gene.
based on this information, what is algernons phenotype for the fur color trait?
brown fur black fur

Explanation:

In genetics, the phenotype is the observable trait. Since the allele for black fur (\(F\)) is dominant over the allele for brown fur (\(f\)), a homozygous recessive genotype (\(ff\)) will express the recessive trait.

Answer:

brown fur
