The chemicals in the food start the digestion process by starting chemical reactions throughout the body. As this is happening, your body stores all the excess energy from the food and stores it as fat.

The process of digestion starts well before food reaches the stomach. ... A digestive enzyme called amylase (pronounced: AH-meh-lace), which is found in saliva, starts to break down some of the carbohydrates (starches and sugars) in the food even before it leaves the mouth.

In leghorn chickens colored feathers are produced by a dominant allele,
Gnesinka [82]
<span> Basically the male will have CC, the hen will have cc, and neither of them will have I. The key thing is that _all_ the chicks are coloured.

The male must have at least 1 C to be coloured, and cannot possess the dominant I. The hen has cc and/or an I to not be coloured.

That one chick is coloured would tell you little - only that the hen couldn't have 2 inhibitor alleles because otherwise the chick would have to have one and it doesn't.

However, for all of many chicks to be coloured, that means that the hen can't have any inhibitor alleles (otherwise around 50% would be white for that reason alone).

So to be colourless, the hen must be cc. However, if the male had only 1 colour allele (ie it was Cc) that would still mean that 50% of the chicks would be Cc (daddy's 'c' and one of mummy's 'c's). 

Hope this helps please award brainly :)
