Analysis of the resulting zygote from the cross would give an indication of the genotype of the otter - whether it has two dominant alleles each for the black, short-hair traits or heterozygous.

<u>If the otter has two dominant alleles for the two traits, all the resulting zygote from the test-cross would have black, short-hair, but if it is heterozygous, a mixed phenotype set of zygote would be obtained.</u>
