In the rabbit, C is required for full color and cc yields an albino; however there are other alleles of the gene that lead to intermediate amounts of color or different patterns of color -- ch is a mostly white rabbit with dark points (face, tail, legs) when homozygous, called himalyan, and ch in the homozygote, is a gray appearing rabbit, but really each hair is white with a black tip, called chinchilla. Each allelic pair shows complete dominance so that C> ch >ch > c C Given the crossing data that follows, determine the genotype of the parents -- full color CC full color Cch full color Cch x albino cc x albino cc --> all full color rabbits --> 1/2 full color, 1/2 himalayan rabbits --> 1/2 full color, 1/4 chinchilla, 1/4 albino x chinchilla cchech [I don't think that you can do superscripts or subscripts so use C, cch, ch, and c as the allele symbols]
