Question

Is it Possible for 2 yellow bellied noombats to have a green bellied child? Identify the genotypes of the parents and complete the cross on the punnett square.
a. Genotypes of the parents: ___and___
b.Can the yellow bellied parents produce a green bellied child? ___
c. If yes, explain how and identify what the probability will be.

Answer 1

We need to know the dominant and recessive traits of the noombats in order to answer this question. If both of them has yellow as the dominant trait, then green may be recessive. In that case there is a chance for them to have a green bellied child. Its impossible to tell the percentage though because we don't know enough about the animals.
