Answer:

A) tortoiseshell female; black male

Explanation:

Females have two X chromosomes and males have an X and a Y chromosome.

<u>The possible genotypes and phenotypes are</u>:

  • XᵒXᵒ: black female
  • XᵒY: black male
  • XᴼXᴼ: orange female
  • XᴼY: orange male
  • XᵒXᴼ: tortoiseshell female

<u>Cross of a black female and an orange male</u>

<h3>XᵒXᵒ  x  XᴼY</h3>

The female only produces Xᵒ gametes. The male produces Xᴼ and Y.

The possible offspring therefore is:  XᵒXᴼ (tortoiseshell females) and XᵒY (black males). The answer is A.
