Answer:

Incomplete dominance

Explanation:

<em>According to Mendelian inheritance, when a gene is heterozygous, one of the alleles must be dominant while the other must be recessive.</em> This is not the case with fur inheritance because heterozygous individuals showed a trait that is halfway between dominant and recessive (median fur thickness).

<em>The allele for thick fur is not completely expressed over the allele for thin fur, a clear-cut case of incomplete dominance.</em>

Which type of change would be more likely to have se­vere consequences—substitution or deletion? Why?
ludmilkaskok [199]

While both will equate changes in a genetic chain, deletion would have more severe consequences.  A substitution mutation usually only causes minor disorders and diseases, like sickle cell anemia.  Whereas deletion causes much more serious diseases, like cystic fibrosis, and turner syndrome which is  where a female is born with only one X chromosome.
