Human skin color is a polygenic trait, which means that multiple gene loci (with different alleles) are involved in its expression. It has been shown that there more than 350 genetic loci involved in determining skin color. Because of that, there is the enormous number of possible genotypes for the skin color and as a result, the phenotypes vary from the darkest brown to the lightest hues. Different populations have different allele frequencies of genes for human skin color, and the combination of these allele variations brings about complex and continuous variation in skin coloration. Natural skin color can change due to exposure to sunlight (becomes darker) and that is the way it adapts to intense sunlight irradiation (protection against the UV exposure).

enot [183]

when a homozygous white rabbit (bb) is crossed with a heterozygous black rabbit (Bb). what proportion of white rabbits would the offspring have?

Answer:

Based on the Mendelian fashion cross,

bb is hetezygote reccessive.(white)

Bb is heterozyote dominant.(black)

Therefore,the the cross to show the proportion is below

Bb,Bb,bb,bb,

2 blacks(hetero zygote blacks) and 2 white.(homo zygote whites)

thus 2 of the offspring will be white, in 50%, of the number of offspring
