What are the genotypes of the parents? 6. What percentage of the puppies will be black and short haired? 7. What percentage of the puppies will be chocolate and short haired? 8.

4. phenotypes of parent: black, short

5.genotype of parent: AaBb

6. the percentage of puppy with black and short hair =9/16 X 100=56.25 or 56

7.the percentage of puppy with chocolate and short hair = 3/16 X 100=18.75 or 19

8.the percentage of puppy with black and long hair =3/16 X 100=18.75 or 19

9. the percentage of puppy with chocolate and long hair =1/16 X 100=6.25 or 6
