Answer:

The parental cross is BB x BW.

The F1 generation will have the ratio 1 BB : 1 BW

Explanation:

Black (B) and white (W) feathers are codominant. This means that if an individual has both B and W alleles (BW genotye) its feathers will show both colors at the same time (checkered).

A cross occurrs between a black feathered (BB) and a checkered chicken (BW).

The BB chicken can only produce B gametes.

The BW chicken can produce B or W gametes.

The Punnett Square (which I attach) is done by combining the gametes to obtain the possible F1 offspring. It shows that the F1 generation will have the following genotypes and phenotypes:

  • 1/2 BB (Black feathers)
  • 1/2 BW (Checkered feathers)
