Options for the question are not given. They are as follows :

A.  Mate them and see what color the offspring are—that will be the dominant color

B.  Mate them and see what color the offspring are—the other will be the dominant color

C.  Mate them, and then mate their offspring to see what color the next generation is

D.  Mate them together, and then mate their offspring to see what color the next generation is—the other color will be the dominant color

Answer:

A.  Mate them and see what color the offspring are—that will be the dominant color

Explanation:

Out of the two colors, one will be recessive and one will be dominant. Recessive color will be homozygous since it is only expressed in homozygous condition. It is also given that in this cross the dominant color is also in homozygous condition.

When the guinea pigs mate, the resulting progeny will obtain one dominant allele from the dominant color parent and one recessive allele from the recessive color parent. The progeny will be heterozygous and show the dominant phenotype since the dominant allele will mask the recessive allele. Thus, the color which is visible in their offspring will be the dominant color.

Which allele for human blood type is recessive?
sergij07 [2.7K]

Blood type doesn't fall into the category of dominant/recessive genes exactly; rather it combines this with the properties of incomplete dominance. Ignoring the Rh factor, there are 3 alleles for blood type, I^a,I^b, and i. You will be type A if you have I^a I^a or I^a i and type B if you have I^b I^b or I^b i. You can also get type AB by having the combination I^a I^b or be type O if you have i i. If you need to use dominant/recessive, you can say the A and B allele are dominant over the O allele and codominant with one another.

lora16 [44]

Answer:

canaliculi

Explanation:

According to my research on studies by various medical professionals, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the term being mentioned is called the canaliculi. This is a small channel that link together the lacunae and whose main function is routing nutrients to osteocytes and expelling waste products.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
